Key features
- Zero-config, keyless by default — searches route through Exa's hosted MCP server (mcp.exa.ai/mcp) with no credentials at all (Exa's documented unauthenticated public MCP, rate-limited).
- You have an EXA_API_KEY and want the officially maintained package → use @deepseek-ai/dsh-web-search-exa.
- Statusconfiguration is done in the profile patch layer, not the Web UI — this version ships no editable UI entry.
- Q: Do I need an Exa API key?
- Keyed REST upgrade — set EXA_API_KEY and it automatically switches to Exa's POST /search REST API (higher limits, no behavior change).
Requirements
- @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools is a dsh runtime singleton and must resolve to one physical package instance in a profile.
- This provider does not depend on it
