What it does
Describes patterns and example implementations for creating event-driven workflows around Exa (a synchronous neural search API). Because Exa lacks native webhooks, this skill shows how to build scheduled monitors, similarity alerts, new-content detection, webhook delivery with retries, and daily digests using Exa’s search APIs plus a job queue or cron.
When to use it
Use this when you need automated content monitoring, competitive intelligence pipelines, scheduled search automation, or daily research digests driven by Exa. It’s appropriate for teams building notification pipelines (webhooks/Slack/email) that need deduplication, retry logic, and interval-based checks.
What's included
- Scripts: example TypeScript snippets demonstrating BullMQ workers, monitor creation, and webhook delivery (has_scripts=false but concrete code included in the body)
- References: links to Exa API docs and BullMQ in the skill body (has_references=false)
- Instructions: step-by-step code examples for creating monitors, executing searches, comparing results, sending webhooks with exponential backoff, and building daily digests.
Compatible agents
Best used by code-capable assistants (Claude Code, Codex, Copilot) that can author or suggest deployment-ready TypeScript/Node code.
