Exa + Hermes Agent

Give Hermes Agent search and extraction through its Exa provider.

Overview

Hermes Agent includes a bundled plugins/web/exa provider that uses the exa-py SDK for both web search and extraction. Hermes can select Exa for search and extract backends; the third-party web-search-plus plugin also routes Hermes searches and extraction through Exa.

How to enable Exa in Hermes Agent:

  • Install the Hermes Agent web provider dependencies, including exa-py.
  • Set web.search_backend to exa and/or web.extract_backend to exa.
  • Provide EXA_API_KEY; optionally install the third-party web-search-plus plugin for multi-provider routing.
