Advanced: enable web search with Exa

/connect covers routing model calls through Pioneer, but it doesn’t expose OpenCode’s web search tool. To enable Exa-powered web search, launch OpenCode with the manual provider config instead, adding OPENCODE_ENABLE_EXA=1:
Never paste a real API key into docs, screenshots, or shared shell history — use an env var or your secrets manager. Rotate any key that’s been exposed.
