Perplexity

Connects AI assistants to Perplexity's API for real-time web search and specialized reasoning capabilities through perplexity_ask and perplexity_reason tools.

Perplexity MCP Server provides a bridge between AI assistants and the Perplexity API, enabling Claude and other MCP-compatible tools to access real-time web search and specialized reasoning capabilities. Built by Alcova AI, this Go implementation exposes two primary tools: perplexity_ask for retrieving up-to-date information using Perplexity's Sonar Pro model, and perplexity_reason for complex problem-solving tasks using Sonar Reasoning Pro. The server supports seamless integration with Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and Cursor through the stdio protocol, allowing AI assistants to access current information and perform reasoning tasks without leaving their interface, making it particularly valuable for workflows requiring real-time data or specialized reasoning capabilities.
