Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| perplexity_agentA | Run a research query through Perplexity's Agent API (multi-step web research with citations). Use for deep or multi-hop questions where a single synthesized, sourced answer is wanted. With wait=true (default) this blocks until the answer is ready; if it takes too long you get a response_id to collect later with perplexity_agent_result. |
| perplexity_agent_resultA | Retrieve the result of a research run started by perplexity_agent. If it is still running, reports what it has done so far and how to check again. |
| perplexity_agent_cancelA | Ask Perplexity to stop a research run that is no longer needed. Perplexity does not report usage for cancelled runs, so this cannot tell you whether it changed your bill. |
