Perplexity Insight

The Perplexity Insight MCP server provides a bridge between MCP-compatible clients and the Perplexity AI API, enabling advanced question answering and web search capabilities. Built with TypeScript, it exposes two primary tools: perplexity_ask for direct questions and perplexity_search for web queries, both supporting multiple Perplexity models (sonar-reasoning, sonar-pro, sonar-deep-research). The implementation includes features like customizable system prompts, rate limiting protection, and proper error handling, making it particularly valuable for users who need up-to-date information and web search capabilities within AI assistant conversations in tools like Claude Desktop or Windsurf IDE.
