ALWAYS ACTIVE — Web search/crawl protocol. You MUST use the exa-search CLI (search / crawl / similar) instead of host-native web tools for web searches, code-example hunts, URL crawling, and topic research whenever EXA_API_KEY is set; native tools are a fallback only. Triggers when searching for external information, looking up docs/APIs, researching technologies, investigating topics, or crawling URLs.
