Perplexity Search
Use this skill for Search only mode. Prefer the MCP path, but fall back to the direct Search API script if the MCP tool is not exposed in the current runtime.
Rules:
- Use the
perplexity_searchMCP tool from theperplexityserver first. - If the MCP tool is not exposed in the current runtime, run
python3 ~/.codeium/windsurf/skills/perplexity-search/search_only.py "<query>" --jsonfor a global Windsurf install, orpython3 perplexity_search_only/scripts/search_only.py "<query>" --jsonwhen working from the repository root. - Do not use
perplexity_ask,perplexity_reason, orperplexity_research. - Return 3-5 best results unless the user asks for another count.
- Include titles, URLs, dates when available, and short notes.
- If the user needs synthesis or recommendations, say that this requires a heavier mode.
