Perplexity web search brief
Read-only Perplexity Search API workflow. It searches for an explicit query, builds a result table, and summarizes relevance and source mix. It never uses People Search, browser sessions, Agent API responses, async jobs, tools, token management, or arbitrary Perplexity routes.
