Summary

Adds Exa documentation to the hermes-agent website, matching the existing pattern used by other web search backends.

Changes

  • configuration.md: Adds Exa config note (API key setup, supported category filters, domain/date filters) — matches the one-liner style of Firecrawl and Parallel notes.
  • integrations/index.md: Updates the backend comparison table to show Exa capabilities (Search ✔, Extract ✔, Crawl ✔).

No promotional language, no dedicated paragraphs — just config-level documentation consistent with other backends.

Adds an Exa-specific setup note next to the Parallel search-modes line
documenting EXA_API_KEY, category filtering (company, research paper,
news, people, personal site, pdf), and domain/date filters.

Reapplied onto current main from @10ishq's PR #6697 — the original branch
was too far behind main to cherry-pick directly (touched 1,456 unrelated
files from deleted/renamed paths).

Thanks @10ishq! Your doc addition was reapplied onto current main and merged via #14310 with your authorship preserved. Your original branch was stale enough that a clean cherry-pick would have touched 1,456 unrelated files, so we extracted the Exa content additions and committed them with --author=.

Superseded by #14310 which salvaged this change onto current main.
