AF perplexity-search

Grounded web search & research via Perplexity, keyless and pay-per-call over SELAT. Use when asked to "search the web for <topic>", "what's the latest on <topic>", "research <topic> with sources", "do a deep-research report on <X>", or "give me a grounded answer with citations". Runs Perplexity's cheap web Search by default, and can escalate to a one-shot Agent answer or an async deep-research report when a plain search isn't enough. Paid per call in USDC (on Base) from the user's own self-custody Circle Agent Wallet — no Perplexity API key, no signup. Dry-run first to see live prices; every price the CLI shows already includes SELAT's ~5% routing markup.

How to improve

  1. The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
For the model run — optional
  • Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
  • A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

  • 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
  • 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
  • 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
  • 30Running it twice. 4 mutating operations with no state check

Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
