Use when asked for deep web research, source discovery, current evidence, topic investigation, company research, or citation-ready findings.\n---\n\n# Exa Deep Search\n\nTurn Exa search into a focused, source-backed research brief. This Skill calls the named Exa capabilities in [the SandBase API map](references/sandbase-api-map.md) through the SandBase MCP gateway. In a SandBase Agent, run the capabilities directly. In another compatible agent, require an authorized SandBase connection before starting; never request, print, or store an API key in the research output.\n\nRead [example workflows](references/example-workflows.md) when the user needs a starting prompt or wants to understand the output.\n\n## Operating principles\n\n- Start from the user's research question and decision context, not a generic search.\n- Treat Exa results as evidence; treat model-generated synthesis, comparisons, and recommendations as judgment clearly separated from sources.\n- Select search depth, time window, domains, and geography deliberately. State any assumption rather than silently defaulting.\n- Optimize for source quality, recency, and relevance — not quantity.\n- Cite every externally verifiable claim with a result URL and publication date (when available).\n- Keep user research goals, company context, and strategy confidential unless sharing is explicitly requested.\n\n## Workflow\n\n### 1. Frame the research question\n\nCollect or infer: the topic or entity, time window, geography, trusted or excluded domains, audience for the deliverable, and how findings will be used. Classify the request as one or more of: landscape scan, deep evidence gathering, competitive intelligence, current news monitoring, or specific-source extraction.\n\nWhen the research question is broad, propose 2–3 focused sub-queries and confirm scope before spending API calls.\n\n### 2. Select and call SandBase capabilities\n\nRead [the SandBase API map](references/sandbase-api-map.md) before selecting tools. Use the listed `tool_name` through the SandBase gateway:\n\n1. Call `sandbase_describe_tool` for the selected `tool_name` and read its current input schema.\n2. Call `sandbase_call_tool` with that exact `tool_name` and only schema-defined arguments.\n3. Keep the tool name, query, search parameters, and result metadata with the returned data.\n\n### 3. Search with Exa\n\nUse `exa_search` with parameters matched to the research need:\n\n| Research need | Recommended parameters |\n|---|---|\n| Current landscape | `topic: \"news\"`, bounded `start_published_date`/`end_published_date`, `include_highlights: true` |\n| Deep evidence | `search_depth: \"advanced\"`, `include_summary: true`, request full text only for selected sources |\n| Trusted sources only | `include_domains` for first-party, academic, or approved publishers |\n| Competitive research | `exclude_domains` for the target's own site; separate queries per competitor |\n| Validation or quick check | `search_depth: \"basic\"`, `num_results: 3–5` |\n\nTips:\n- Write queries as natural-language statements of what a good result page would say, not short keyword strings. Exa responds best to semantic queries.\n- Use `category` when available (e.g., `\"research paper\"`, `\"company\"`, `\"news\"`) to narrow result types.\n- Iterate: refine by entity, product, problem, event, or time period until evidence is sufficient.\n- Request `include_highlights: true` to get relevant snippets without extracting full text for every result.\n\n### 4. Extract selected sources\n\nWhen deeper analysis of specific pages is needed, send selected URLs to `exa_contents`:\n\n- Choose `include_text: true` for full page content when analyzing structure or extracting data.\n- Choose `include_highlights: true` with a `highlights_query` to focus extraction on specific aspects.\n- Choose `include_summary: true` for concise overviews when reviewing many pages.\n- Use `subpages` only for explicit documentation, pricing, or API crawl tasks.\n- Use `max_age_hours: 0` only when freshness requires a live crawl; avoid for routine research.\n\nIf `exa_contents` is not yet available in the current Gateway, return the Search results and explicitly state that extraction is awaiting capability publication.\n\n### 5. Synthesize findings\n\n- Separate direct observations from interpretation.\n- Group findings by theme, entity, or chronology as appropriate for the research question.\n- Note disagreements between sources and evidence gaps.\n- Propose follow-up queries for unresolved questions.\n\n## Query crafting tips\n\nGood Exa queries describe the content of the ideal result page:\n\n| Poor query | Better query |\n|---|---|\n| `AI agents` | `How enterprises evaluate AI agent platforms for production deployment` |\n| `observability tools` | `Comparison of AI agent observability and tracing solutions 2025` |\n| `competitor pricing` | `Pricing page for enterprise AI agent orchestration platform` |\n\n- Add temporal context: \"in 2025\", \"since January\", \"latest announcement\".\n- Add specificity: mention the industry, company size, technology stack, or use case.\n- Use `exclude_domains` to avoid results you already know about.\n\n## Output\n\nReturn a structured research brief:\n\n### Source map\n\n| # | Title | URL | Published | Relevance |\n|---|---|---|---|---|\n| 1 | ... | ... | ... | ... |\n\n### Key findings\n\nNumbered findings, each citing source(s) by number.\n\n### Disagreements and evidence gaps\n\nWhat sources disagree on, and what questions remain unanswered.\n\n### Suggested next queries\n\nFollow-up Exa queries or alternative research paths.\n\n## Evidence rules\n\n- Cite a result URL for every externally verifiable claim.\n- Label a result's publication date as \"unavailable\" when Exa does not return one.\n- Do not treat an Exa summary as a source quote; use it as an aid to select evidence, then cite the original URL.\n- Do not call Exa Answer or Exa Agent endpoints. The user's Agent/LLM synthesizes the evidence.\n- Do not copy long source passages; paraphrase and cite.\n- Mark clearly when a finding is inferred from multiple sources vs. directly stated in one.\n\n## Failure handling\n\n- If SandBase is unavailable or unauthorized, report the failed capability and ask the user to connect or authorize SandBase; do not silently substitute a direct provider API.\n- If `exa_search` returns few or no results, try: broader query, different `search_depth`, removed domain filters, or a wider date range. Report if the topic genuinely lacks public coverage.\n- If `exa_contents` is unavailable, deliver search results with highlights and explicitly note the extraction gap.\n- If results are low-quality or off-topic, refine the query before reporting; explain what was tried.\n\n## Example tasks\n\n- \"Find the last 30 days of reliable sources about AI agent observability. Give me a five-source brief with gaps.\"\n- \"Research how enterprise teams evaluate AI agents. Prefer company and academic sources; exclude vendor blogs.\"\n- \"Compare the public arguments for and against a retrieval architecture. Use advanced search and cite each source.\"\n- \"Find recent funding announcements in the AI developer tools space. Only include sources from the last 7 days.\"\n- \"Extract the pricing and feature comparison from these three competitor pages: [URLs].\"\n\n## Quality gate\n\nBefore delivering, verify that:\n\n- Every finding cites at least one source URL.\n- Observations are separated from model-generated interpretations.\n- The search parameters (depth, dates, domains) match the stated research need.\n- Evidence gaps and low-confidence findings are explicitly labeled.\n- The deliverable format matches what the user requested.\n","tagline":"Search, extract, and compare high-quality public sources with Exa through SandBase.
