Excellent practical skill for identifying and fixing Exa API integration anti-patterns. The description clearly defines when to invoke this skill (code review, onboarding, auditing). Task knowledge is comprehensive with 10 well-documented pitfalls, each showing anti-pattern vs. correct implementation with concrete code examples. Structure is clean with logical grouping, quick reference table, and clear instructions. Novelty is moderate-to-good: while a CLI agent could theoretically grep for some patterns, the nuanced understanding of context-specific anti-patterns (async patterns, idempotency, circuit breakers) and prioritization guidance (security first) provides meaningful value. The skill consolidates domain expertise that would otherwise require multiple prompts and extensive token usage to replicate. Minor improvement opportunity: could reference additional files for language-specific linters or automated detection scripts, though current structure works well for a single comprehensive guide.
