How to connect Exa to Muse

Muse is Meta's AI assistant. It can connect to outside tools through custom connectors, which use the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

This guide explains how to connect Exa to Muse using Composio Connect, which handles OAuth, token refresh, and reliability so you do not have to. You add Composio as a custom connector once, then ask Muse to work with Exa in plain language.

• Cross-app workflows across 1,500+ apps from a single plugin layer.
• On-demand tool loading so Muse only loads the tools needed for the current task.
• Programmatic tool calling through a remote workbench for complex, multi-step workflows.
• Multi-account support so users can connect and switch between multiple accounts for the same app.
• Shared account access so teams or agents can work through common business accounts and service connections.
• Managed authentication with OAuth handling, credential storage, and token refresh managed by Composio.
• Safer credential handling so app credentials stay outside the model context and tool responses.
• User-level account isolation so actions run against the correct connected account instead of mixing user access.

Connecting Exa to Muse

You add Composio to Muse once as a custom connector, then connect Exa from the chat.

The Exa MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Exa account. It provides structured and secure access to Exa’s web search, content extraction, and research tools, so your agent can search the web, generate cited answers, retrieve website content, conduct in-depth research, and organize findings on your behalf.

• Web search: Have your agent search the web with Exa to find relevant sources for a topic, question, company, or market.
• Citation-backed answers: Ask the agent to answer specific questions or summarize broad topics using supporting web sources and citations.
• Website content extraction: Direct your agent to retrieve text, highlights, summaries, and linked subpages from websites or saved documents.
• Multi-step research: Let the agent start research tasks, check their progress, and return synthesized findings with citations when the work is complete.
• Research collection management: Instruct your agent to create or delete web collections, import data into them, review imports, add enrichment, and set up monitors.

Way Forward

Now that Exa is connected, extend your setup by connecting the other apps you already use every day, so Muse can run true cross-app workflows end to end.

• Connect Calendar to turn threads into scheduled meetings automatically.
• Connect Slack or Teams to post summaries, approvals, and alerts where your team works.
• Connect Notion, Linear, Jira, or Asana to convert requests into tickets, tasks, and docs.
• Connect Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive to fetch, file, and share attachments without manual steps.

Start with one workflow you do repeatedly, then keep adding apps as you find new handoffs. With everything behind a single connection, Muse can coordinate multiple tools safely and reliably in one conversation.
