Perplexity MCP Server

cyanheads · MCP server

Connects an AI assistant to the Perplexity API. Its search tool answers questions with search-augmented results and can filter by recency (day, week, month or year), by domain or date range, and prioritise scholarly sources in academic mode. Its deep research tool runs a multi-source investigation of a complex topic and returns a detailed report. Deep research can run long, so allow your client a longer timeout.

Written by ooruby from the README of perplexity-mcp-server 1.2.1.

Not claimed by its maker.

Why it's useful

Your agent can answer from current web results and run in-depth research through Perplexity instead of relying only on what the model already knows.

What you could do with it

  1. 1Ask your agent for the latest news on a topic from the past week using the recency filter.
  2. 2Limit a search to chosen domains, or switch to academic mode to favour scholarly sources.
  3. 3Request a deep research report on a complex topic and set the reasoning effort to high.

Written from its documentation: what it says it can do, not what our checks found.

Maintenance

Not measured

No release date is on record for this package yet. The nightly publisher check records one as it reaches each npm package, about once every ten nights.

Release activity only: it says nothing about quality or safety, and a finished small package can be fine without releases. How it is measured

Not yet tested
Data handling disclosed

no statement of what it reads, writes or sends (README.md)

Published because it was found. A finding is information about where the limits are, not a verdict that the software is unsafe.

How far this has been checked

Static scanned

What it establishes
Its published package, or for a hosted server its source repository at a recorded commit, was read file by file, without running it, by every check in our current scan.
What it does not
How it behaves when it runs, or anything the scan does not read yet: several rubric checks, the repository's history, and compiled code in folders named dist or build. For a hosted server, that the endpoint runs the code that was read. The ooruby Index sets out exactly what was read.
Exactly what was read
Version 1.2.1, the file with digest sha512-JKqqHfgAbb9DROaKV+acGSOwremjbJFXMaDSW4HGwUICGKQj3VK4fm8h0T2eRgtlmu4Y214rqZ64DRZZ3pvh1w==, as the registry publishes it. A published version cannot be replaced, so this names the same bytes for anyone who checks.
Authentication
Runs locally. No hosted endpoint is listed for this package. You run it on your own machine, so there is no endpoint of ours to authenticate against.
How the rungs work

Adding it

This one installs no executable, so there is nothing to run. It is a library you import into your own process. Add it with npm i perplexity-mcp-server@1.2.1 and call it from your code.

No build provenance published. The repository above is the one the publisher declared, and nothing links it to the package you would install. That is not a mark against this listing, since most packages are published this way, but it is a check nobody can run.

The badge, if this is your listing

It renders the current rung (static scanned) and links back here, where what that does and does not establish is one click away. It updates itself as the evidence deepens.
