exa.search("query", type="deep", effort="high")works correctly against the APIeffortin both cases)Notes
SEARCH_OPTIONS_TYPESaccepts any string foreffort, matching the existing pattern for other enum-like params (e.g.,type). The actual validation happens server-side.Link to Devin run: https://app.devin.ai/sessions/6c21ac37bc6f4dbf8c37d31f7fbbc388
