Can I use Exa AI as a CLI?

Yes. KosmoKrator exposes a Exa AI CLI through kosmo integrations:call and the provider shortcut command. Commands can return JSON for scripts, CI, and coding agents.

Can I expose Exa AI through MCP?

Yes. The KosmoKrator MCP gateway can expose selected Exa AI tools to clients such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other MCP-compatible tools.

Where are Exa AI credentials stored?

Exa AI credentials are configured in KosmoKrator's local integration settings and reused by CLI, Lua, and MCP gateway surfaces.

Can I deny write access for Exa AI MCP tools?

Yes. Start the gateway with --write=deny for read-only clients, or use ask/allow only for trusted workspaces.

Connect Exa AI to LangChain

Bridge LangChain agents to local KosmoKrator integration tools through MCP or headless CLI calls.

Use the MCP gateway when the agent should discover tools, or wrap kosmo integrations:call for fixed chains. The gateway is local, scoped to this integration, and starts with --write=deny so LangChain can inspect read-capable tools without receiving write access by default.

Exa AI MCP Config for LangChain

Keep the gateway scoped to the integration and operation class needed by the chain.
