description	Queries Perplexity AI via sonar/sonar-pro/sonar-deep-research/sonar-reasoning-pro models. Use when conducting cited web research, deep technical reports, or complex reasoning problems requiring up-to-date sources.

[H1][PERPLEXITY-TOOLS]

Dictum: Specialized models optimize response quality.

Execute Perplexity AI queries via Python CLI. API key auto-injected via 1Password.

[IMPORTANT] Sonar family models (Feb 2026): sonar (lightweight search), sonar-pro (deeper retrieval, 2x more results), sonar-reasoning (real-time reasoning), sonar-reasoning-pro (DeepSeek-R1, visible reasoning), sonar-deep-research (long-form reports). Citation tokens no longer billed for sonar/sonar-pro.

[1][COMMANDS]

[CMD]	[ARGS]	[MODEL]
ask	`<query>`	sonar
pro	`<query>`	sonar-pro
research	`<query> [strip]`	sonar-deep-research
reason	`<query> [strip]`	sonar-reasoning-pro
search	`<query> [max] [country]`	sonar

[2][USAGE]

# Quick question with citations (lightweight)
uv run .claude/skills/perplexity-tools/scripts/perplexity.py ask "What is Effect-TS?"

# Pro question with deeper retrieval
uv run .claude/skills/perplexity-tools/scripts/perplexity.py pro "Compare Vite 7 vs Turbopack bundling strategies"

# Deep research (10min timeout)
uv run .claude/skills/perplexity-tools/scripts/perplexity.py research "React 19 new features"

# Deep research, strip thinking tags
uv run .claude/skills/perplexity-tools/scripts/perplexity.py research "Vite 7 migration" strip

# Reasoning task
uv run .claude/skills/perplexity-tools/scripts/perplexity.py reason "Compare Effect vs RxJS"

# Web search with max results
uv run .claude/skills/perplexity-tools/scripts/perplexity.py search "Nx 22 features" 5
