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.
