- `answer`
- `lookup`

## Install

This entry is distributed on PyPI (perplexity-agent-mcp) and declares no launch command Forge has observed. Check the project's own README for the console script name before writing a stdio config — Forge will not guess it.

## Blast radius

Contained to moderate — no credential declaration found, from the publisher, the upstream registry, or the README. Known so far: runs on your machine; read-only tool surface.
- Floor 13, ceiling 31 (tier: unknown)
- `unknown` means the floor and ceiling land in different bands — not measured enough to name one. It does not mean low.
- This is impact, not likelihood. A high radius is not a defect: a filesystem server is supposed to write files. It is never part of the trust score.
