How does this skill prevent Exa API key leaks?

The skill provides standardized patterns for environment variable configuration and .gitignore setups to ensure secrets are managed locally and never committed to public repositories.

Does this skill support automated secret rotation?

It provides a guided manual workflow for generating, verifying, and revoking keys, ensuring a safe transition during credential updates without service interruption.

What is the benefit of applying 'Least Privilege' to Exa?

By using environment-specific scopes (e.g., read-only for development), you minimize the potential damage if a specific API key is ever compromised.

Can this skill help with production compliance?

Yes, it includes patterns for audit logging and webhook signature verification, which are essential for maintaining security logs and verifying the authenticity of incoming data.
