exa-deploy-integration
Deploy Exa integrations to Vercel, Docker, and Cloud Run platforms. Use when deploying Exa-powered applications to production, configuring platform-specific secrets, or building search API endpoints. Trigger with phrases like "deploy exa", "exa Vercel", "exa production deploy", "exa Cloud Run", "exa Docker".

Discovery
100%Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.
This is a well-crafted skill description that clearly identifies the specific product (Exa), the concrete actions (deploying, configuring secrets, building endpoints), the target platforms (Vercel, Docker, Cloud Run), and explicit trigger phrases. It follows the recommended pattern with both 'Use when' and 'Trigger with' clauses, uses third person voice, and is concise without unnecessary padding.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Lists multiple specific concrete actions: deploying to three named platforms (Vercel, Docker, Cloud Run), configuring platform-specific secrets, and building search API endpoints. | 3 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers both 'what' (deploy Exa integrations to Vercel/Docker/Cloud Run, configure secrets, build search API endpoints) and 'when' (explicit 'Use when' clause plus 'Trigger with phrases' guidance). | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Includes natural trigger phrases users would actually say: 'deploy exa', 'exa Vercel', 'exa production deploy', 'exa Cloud Run', 'exa Docker'. These cover platform-specific variations and common deployment terminology. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Highly distinctive due to the specific combination of 'Exa' product with named deployment platforms. Unlikely to conflict with generic deployment skills or generic Exa skills due to the narrow intersection of both domains. | 3 / 3 |

Implementation
64%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
The skill provides strong, actionable code examples for deploying Exa integrations across three platforms, which is its primary strength. However, it suffers from misleading sequential step numbering for what are actually independent deployment paths, lacks validation/verification steps after deployment, and would benefit from splitting platform-specific content into separate files rather than presenting everything in one long document.
Suggestions
Restructure the steps to clarify these are independent deployment options (not sequential steps), e.g., use '## Option A: Vercel' instead of 'Step 1'
Add post-deployment validation steps for each platform (e.g., 'curl the health endpoint to verify', 'check vercel logs for errors')
Split platform-specific deployment guides into separate files (vercel-deploy.md, docker-deploy.md, cloud-run-deploy.md) and keep SKILL.md as a concise overview with links
Either provide the referenced 'exa-multi-env-setup' and 'exa-prod-checklist' bundle files or remove the dangling references
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The skill is mostly efficient with executable code examples, but includes some unnecessary verbosity. The Docker and Cloud Run sections could be tighter, and the health check endpoint that makes an actual API call is a questionable pattern that adds bulk. The error handling table is useful but some entries are obvious to Claude. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Fully executable code examples across all three platforms with complete, copy-paste ready TypeScript, Dockerfile, and bash commands. Deployment commands are specific and concrete, including secret management for each platform. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Steps are labeled sequentially but they're actually independent deployment options, not a sequential workflow — the 'Step 1/2/3/4' numbering is misleading. There are no validation checkpoints (e.g., verifying the deployment succeeded, testing the endpoint after deploy, checking that secrets are properly mounted). For deployment operations, missing verification steps is a significant gap. | 2 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The content is a long monolithic file with ~130 lines of code that could benefit from splitting platform-specific deployments into separate files. References to 'exa-multi-env-setup' and 'exa-prod-checklist' are mentioned but no bundle files exist to support them. The structure would benefit from a concise overview pointing to per-platform guides. | 2 / 3 |
