Brain-augmented web research. Sends brain context about a topic to Perplexity, which searches the web with citations and returns what is NEW vs what the brain already knows. Use for entity enrichment, current-state checks, deal monitoring, and freshness deltas. NOT for simple URL fetches (use web_fetch) or brain-only queries (use gbrain query).

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install

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

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'perplexity-research' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'perplexity-research' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named perplexity-research already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/garrytan/gbrain' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '001c8c39e84d726e9bb6ecbae053458c970d5af3' -- 'skills/perplexity-research' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/perplexity-research' ~/.agents/skills/'perplexity-research' && 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-research' ~/.claude/skills/'perplexity-research' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
