Perplexity Search
This wraps Perplexity's API with four distinct modes for different research needs. Use --search for raw ranked results without AI synthesis, --ask for quick facts, --research when you want sources combined into an answer, and --reason for chain-of-thought analysis on decisions. The --deep mode does exhaustive research but takes longer. The real value is having direct web search alongside AI synthesis in the same tool, so you can grab current sources when Claude's knowledge cutoff matters. Needs a Perplexity API key and expects to run via uv with a specific script path.
