SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps you avoid re-reading and re-summarizing the web by producing web research focused specifically on changes relative to what you already know, with verifiable citations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Brain-delta research: Sends your existing brain context into a Perplexity query so results emphasize what is NEW versus already-settled knowledge.
  • Cited, claim-grade output: Enforces citation rules where every claim from web research lands with a verifiable source URL.
  • Structured research pages: Writes results as a new brain page under research/<slug>.md with an executive summary, developments, confirming signals, contradictions, recommended brain updates, and a citations section.

Quick Start

Ask your AI to run perplexity-research for "what changed about Brex lately" and write the new findings into your research pages with citations.

Frequently Asked Questions about perplexity-research

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I do web research that only shows what changed since my last knowledge update?

Brain-delta web research compares your existing knowledge context against new web searches to emphasize only what has changed. It reads your supplied brain context and highlights the delta, avoiding the need to re-read and re-summarize previously known information.

How do I get cited web research with verifiable source URLs for entity enrichment?

Cited web research enforces citation rules where every claim produced from web searches lands with a verifiable source URL. This structured output ensures entity enrichment and current-state checks are backed by traceable references rather than unverified summaries.

What is the best way to monitor a company or deal for new developments without manually reading articles?

Deal or company monitoring can be automated by querying web sources and synthesizing results into a structured research page. This process extracts developments, confirming signals, and contradictions, then writes them into a research file with citations for freshness deltas.

Do I need a Perplexity API or CLI call to perform brain-augmented web research?

Yes, performing brain-augmented web research requires a Perplexity API or CLI call to search and synthesize sources. The process also needs a provided brain context to compare against, ensuring the results reflect verifiable updates rather than simple URL fetching.

How does brain-delta research format its output for knowledge updates?

Brain-delta research formats output as a structured markdown page written to a research directory. This page includes an executive summary, developments, confirming signals, contradictions, recommended brain updates, and a citations section for clear knowledge updates.

When should I avoid using web research for current-state checks?

You should avoid using simple URL fetching for current-state checks when verifiable citations are required. Instead, use a research approach that synthesizes sources and enforces citation rules to ensure claims are backed by verifiable source URLs.
