Does this skill work with all Claude versions?

This is a Claude Code Skill designed to work within the Claude Code CLI environment using the Exa MCP server.

What information does the skill return from search results?

It provides the title, author or site name, publication date, key insights, and can even generate summaries or highlights from the page content.

Can I filter out sites like Medium or Substack?

Yes, you can use the excludeDomains parameter to remove aggregators and find truly independent, self-hosted personal websites.

How does this differ from a standard Google search?

This skill specifically targets the 'personal site' category via Exa, which filters out corporate sites, ads, and news aggregators to prioritize independent blogs and portfolios.

Why use this skill for software development?

Personal blogs often contain practical, real-world troubleshooting and 'in-the-trenches' advice that isn't found in official documentation or corporate marketing materials.

Searches personal websites, blogs, and portfolios to find individual expert perspectives and independent technical analysis.

Acerca de

This skill leverages the Exa MCP to perform highly targeted searches restricted to personal websites and individual blogs. It is designed for developers and researchers who need authentic, non-corporate content such as practitioner-led tutorials, niche technical deep-dives, and independent project portfolios. By utilizing advanced neural search and granular filters—including domain exclusions and date ranges—it effectively isolates individual voices from the noise of large-scale media aggregators and corporate marketing content.
