exa-enterprise-rbac
Manage Exa API key scoping, team access controls, and domain restrictions. Use when implementing multi-key access control, configuring per-team search limits, or setting up organization-level Exa governance. Trigger with phrases like "exa access control", "exa RBAC", "exa enterprise", "exa team keys", "exa permissions".

Quality
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 defines its scope around Exa API access control and governance. It excels in all dimensions: specific capabilities are listed, natural trigger terms are provided, both 'what' and 'when' are explicitly addressed, and the niche is distinct enough to avoid conflicts with other skills.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Lists multiple specific concrete actions: 'API key scoping', 'team access controls', 'domain restrictions', 'multi-key access control', 'per-team search limits', and 'organization-level Exa governance'. | 3 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers both 'what' (manage API key scoping, team access controls, domain restrictions) and 'when' (explicit 'Use when' clause with specific scenarios plus a 'Trigger with phrases' section). | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Includes a rich set of natural trigger terms users would say: 'exa access control', 'exa RBAC', 'exa enterprise', 'exa team keys', 'exa permissions'. These cover multiple natural phrasings and variations. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Highly distinctive — scoped specifically to Exa API governance, access controls, and team key management. The 'Exa' prefix on all trigger terms and the narrow domain of RBAC/permissions for Exa makes conflicts with other skills very unlikely. | 3 / 3 |

Implementation
77%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is a solid, actionable skill with well-structured executable code and a clear multi-step workflow for implementing application-level RBAC around Exa's API-key-based system. The main weaknesses are moderate verbosity in the code examples and the lack of supporting bundle files for the referenced next-step skills. The error handling table and key rotation procedure with verification are strong additions.
Suggestions
Consider extracting the full TypeScript implementations into bundle files (e.g., exa-permissions.ts, exa-usage-tracker.ts) and keeping only concise snippets in SKILL.md to improve progressive disclosure.
Trim inline comments that explain obvious code behavior (e.g., '// Create separate clients for each use case') to improve token efficiency.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The skill is reasonably efficient but includes some unnecessary verbosity—inline comments explaining obvious things, and the code blocks are quite long for what could be more concise configuration patterns. The overview paragraph explaining that Exa is API-key-based is useful context, but some of the TypeScript code could be tightened. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | The skill provides fully executable TypeScript code with concrete type definitions, role configurations, and a working bash script for key rotation verification. The code is copy-paste ready with realistic role examples and specific Exa API parameters. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The 5-step workflow is clearly sequenced from architecture setup through key rotation, with validation built into the permission enforcement (Step 2-3) and usage tracking (Step 4). The key rotation procedure includes explicit verification via curl before switching traffic, and the error handling table provides a feedback loop for common failure modes. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill references `exa-policy-guardrails` and `exa-multi-env-setup` in Next Steps, but no bundle files exist to support these references. The content is somewhat monolithic—the lengthy TypeScript blocks for permissions and usage tracking could benefit from being split into referenced files, especially since there are no supporting bundle files. | 2 / 3 |
