This one needs environment variables set before it will start: PERPLEXITY_API_KEY (Your Perplexity API key. Read at call time and sent only as an Authorization header to api.perplexity.ai; never logged or echoed.), PERPLEXITY_AGENT_WAIT_SECONDS (How long a blocking call waits before handing back a response_id to collect later. Defaults to 55, just inside Claude Desktop's unconfigurable 60s tool-call timeout. Raise to 300 on clients without that limit.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.
