An MCP server that exposes Perplexity's API, providing real-time web search, reasoning, and research capabilities over the stdio transport. It acts as a bridge between MCP clients and Perplexity's search and research models.
Use it when you want an MCP client to query Perplexity's live web search and reasoning instead of a model's static training data.
Use it to
- Run real-time web searches from an MCP client
- Add Perplexity-powered research to an assistant
- Perform reasoning queries against current web content
- Connect Perplexity via stdio to a local MCP setup
