Perplexity provider

⌘ K

Search stays on this site. No external service.

Perplexity is API-token based. No browser cookies. No usage quota – shows model availability only.

Data sources + fallback order

  1. API token (single source, one fetch strategy).

Credentials

Token resolution order:

  1. Keychain token (stored from Preferences).
  2. Environment variable PPLX_API_KEY.
  3. Environment variable PERPLEXITY_API_KEY.

Keychain location

  • Service: com.sriinnu.athena.Runic.provider-credentials.v2
  • Account: perplexity-api-token

API endpoints

  • GET https://api.perplexity.ai/models
  • Headers:
    • Authorization: Bearer <token>
    • Content-Type: application/json

Parsing + mapping

  • Response: data[] – each entry has an id (model name string).
  • Snapshot: usedPercent: 0, hasKnownLimit: false. The snapshot surfaces a model count and a preview of the first 3 model names in the reset description.
  • No window computation, no reset time, no percentage – this is an availability check, not a usage meter.
  • No model or plan detection beyond listing model IDs.
