Your Coding Agent Is 6 Months Out of Date — Jakub Hojsan, Exa

Jakub Hojsan, a forward deployed engineer at Exa, explains how search built for coding and code-review agents closes the gap left by model knowledge cutoffs. He covers why agents need explicit rules for when to search, how query-dependent highlights cut a 100,000-character page to about 500 characters without added latency, and how Exa compares with native web search on transparency, cost, and model-provider independence, with a preview of Exa Agent.
