Use this skill to find practitioner blogs, independent analysis, personal websites, technical essays, field notes, and non-corporate perspectives.
| Intent | Primary Tool | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Find practitioner blogs by topic | web_search_exa | Start here when you do not already know a source site. |
| Filter to personal sites only | web_search_advanced_exa with category: "personal site" | Use when available; add date or domain filters when useful. |
| Find more like this / recommend similar sites | web_find_similar_exa | Use when you already have one strong post or blog URL. |
| Distill viewpoints across multiple posts | web_research_exa | Use when enabled and synthesis is worth the cost. |
| Direct one-off answer from discovered sources | web_answer_exa | Use for concise cited answers after the topic is clear. |
| Pull full article bodies | web_fetch_exa | Fetch selected URLs when snippets are not enough. |
