Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Exa Search Use Exa’s Search API via the bundled script. ## Requirements - Set `EXA_API_KEY` in the Gateway environment (recommended) or in `~/.openclaw/.env`. ## Commands - Run a search: - `node {baseDir}/scripts/exa_search.mjs "<query>" --count 5` - Include page text in results (costs more): - `node {baseDir}/scripts/exa_search.mjs "<query>" --count 5 --text` - Narrow by time window: - `--start 2025-01-01 --end 2026-02-04` ## Notes - This skill does not modify `web_search`; it provides an Exa-backed alternative you can invoke when you specifically want Exa.

From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
