# Every answer on Stack Overflow. Inside your agent. Source: https://corespeed.io/integrations/stack-exchange Connect Stack Exchange to Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or any MCP agent through CoreSpeed. Your agent searches Stack Overflow and its sister sites for an error, reads the accepted answers and their comments, and checks your own inbox and reputation. It signs in as you; commenting, voting and accepting an answer are separate calls that approvals can hold. ## Set up an agent Give your agent this line: `set up https://corespeed.io/SKILL.md (read it raw, e.g. with curl)` It fetches the skill at https://corespeed.io/SKILL.md, adds the CoreSpeed MCP server, signs you in (or up), and keeps the skill for next time. Connect Stack Exchange after setup. Access follows the connected account and its permissions. Create an account: https://app.corespeed.io/sign-up ## Search the error. Read the answer that fits Ask your agent to find answers for an error, read the accepted ones, and check the comments for what changed since. You ask your agent: "Search Stack Overflow for 'fetch ECONNRESET behind a proxy' in Node. Read the best accepted answer and its comments, and tell me the fix for Node 20." It calls CoreSpeed: - `stack-exchange__search_excerpts`: ok, 524 ms - `stack-exchange__get_question_answers`: ok, 391 ms - `stack-exchange__get_post_comments`: ok, 312 ms It reads from: Stack Exchange. ### Answer: Route fetch through the proxy. Node's fetch does not read HTTPS_PROXY. Set a proxy dispatcher once, at start-up, on Node 20. **Fix** - Create a proxy agent and set it as the global dispatcher. **Source** - Q1, the accepted answer, and its top comment. _Illustrative example · Fictional posts · Nothing posted or voted_ All connectors: https://corespeed.io/docs/connectors ## From an error message to the answer that fits Requests you can make once Stack Exchange is connected.

Bring your work One CoreSpeed account, across compatible agents. 1. **Set up CoreSpeed**: Give your agent the setup line. It adds CoreSpeed and signs you in. 2. **Connect Stack Exchange**: Authorize the account and the content you need. 3. **Start with one task**: Ask for a summary, a brief, or a draft. Review the answer.

Yes. It covers Stack Overflow and the other public Stack Exchange sites; each call names the site. ### Can my agent post answers? No. It can post, edit and delete its own comments, vote, and accept an answer to your question; it cannot post questions or answers. ### Does it act as me? Yes. Comments and votes come from your account, so each is its own tool call, which approvals can hold for a person. ### Do I have to switch agents? No. CoreSpeed adds tools to the agent you already use: Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or another MCP client. Each one signs in once. ### Can my agent access every account in our organization? No. Access follows your CoreSpeed identity, each connection's visibility, and the app's own permissions. Personal connections stay private. ### Does this work without connecting an account? No. Connect the app's account first; your CoreSpeed workspace shows what each app needs. The examples on this page use fictional data.
