Can a clue use part of the keyword's spelling, like EX for TEXAS, or spell its letters?
This follows directly from the rulebook's ban on spelling-based clues.

No. A clue built on letters inside the keyword, such as 'ex' for Texas or 'out' for swain, refers to spelling, which the rulebook forbids. The clue must connect to the concept the word represents, not to how it is written.
