# Exa MCP Server

An MCP server that connects AI agents to Exa for web search, content fetching and multi-step research.

Exa MCP Server installs as a hosted MCP server at a fixed URL, or as an agent plugin for clients such as Claude, Codex/ChatGPT, Kiro, LM Studio, Replit, Grok Build, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Windsurf, Google Antigravity, Zed, Warp or v0; most other MCP clients can be configured manually with the standard `mcpServers` shape.

Its default tools are `web_search_exa`, which searches the web and returns clean, ready-to-use content, and `web_fetch_exa`, which reads a webpage's full content as markdown from one or more URLs. Optional tools enabled through a URL parameter add `agent_run`, an Exa agent for multi-step research, list-building, enrichment and structured output that requires authentication, and `web_search_advanced_exa`, filtered search by domain, date, highlights, summaries and subpage crawling.

It is written in TypeScript and licensed under MIT.
