Perplexity

Use the bundled scripts for all Perplexity work. Max-tier models are removed.

Setup

Install the Browser Tools dependency declared in package.json:

npm ci

Token safety

Never print or store the session token unless the user explicitly asks. Scripts read tokens from --token, --token-file, Browser Tools copied Chrome profile, PERPLEXITY_SESSION_TOKEN, or PPLX_SESSION_TOKEN. Browser Tools extraction starts a synced sandbox copy of the Default Chrome profile, navigates to Perplexity, and reads the session cookie through DevTools. Set PPLX_BROWSER_TOOLS_PROFILE or CHROME_PROFILE for another profile, or PPLX_BROWSER_TOOLS_TASK for a Browser Tools task profile. Commands retry transient WebUI 403 and query-processing failures according to --auth-retries. If an environment or token-file token is expired, commands retry once with Browser Tools when available. If token extraction fails but normal Chrome is logged in, verify the login is in the selected profile before trying another auth path.
