Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

Search the current public web with citations through either the perplexity-mcp v2 tools or the bundled Python REST client. Use for recent information, news, fact checks, source-backed comparisons, research, file-assisted questions, native follow-ups, and detached tasks. Both transports expose the same perplexity_ask_v2, perplexity_research_v2, and task method names and response shapes.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'perplexity-search' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'perplexity-search' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named perplexity-search already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/escapeWu/perplexity-ai' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'a39a13fb95609fa60c8163ed345878c5fc27a7c8' -- '.agents/skills/perplexity-search' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'.agents/skills/perplexity-search' ~/.agents/skills/'perplexity-search' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'perplexity-search' ~/.claude/skills/'perplexity-search' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
