perplexity

perplexity is an MCP server for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, OpenCode from LEEI1337/phantom-neural-cortex. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, MIT.

A local connection to Perplexity's API, a service that searches the web and helps investigate questions using current information.

In plain words
What is it for?
Researching current documentation, facts, and technical questions through Perplexity's web search and reasoning service.
Why use it?
It gives the coding agent access to web research instead of relying only on its built-in knowledge. It requires a Perplexity API key and a timeout setting.

Written for no agent in particular: it speaks MCP, so any client can run it. Also seen: listed in a Claude config.

One of 16 entries in .mcp.json upstream. Installing this one merges just its entry into your config; the other 15 are separate, each on its own page.

Getting it into your agent

Security

Grade A, and why

perplexity scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
