概览

What is Perplexica MCP Server?

Perplexica MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides AI-powered web search functionality by connecting MCP clients to the Perplexica search API. It supports stdio, SSE, and Streamable HTTP transports and is built with the FastMCP framework.

How to use Perplexica MCP Server?

Clone the repository, install dependencies with uv sync, and set the PERPLEXICA_BACKEND_URL environment variable to your running Perplexica instance. Run the server using one of three transport modes: uv run src/perplexica_mcp.py stdio, sse, or http. Configuration examples for Claude Desktop, Cursor IDE, and generic MCP clients are provided. Docker deployment is also supported with compose files for HTTP and SSE transports.

Key features of Perplexica MCP Server

AI-powered web search with multiple focus modes
Supports stdio, SSE, and Streamable HTTP transports
Built with FastMCP for robust MCP protocol compliance
Single unified server implementation for all transports
Docker support with health checks and security best practices

Use cases of Perplexica MCP Server

Add AI search to MCP-compatible clients like Claude Desktop or Cursor
Provide real-time search results over Server-Sent Events (SSE)
Integrate with REST workflows using Streamable HTTP transport
Deploy containerized search capabilities alongside Perplexica in Docker networks

常见问题

What transports does Perplexica MCP Server support?

It supports stdio, SSE (Server-Sent Events), and Streamable HTTP transports. Stdio is recommended for most MCP clients; SSE and HTTP are available for web-based or real-time use cases.

How do I configure Perplexica MCP Server for my client?

Set the `PERPLEXICA_BACKEND_URL` environment variable to point to your Perplexica instance, then run the server with the appropriate transport command. For Claude Desktop or Cursor, use a stdio configuration with `uv run ... stdio`.

Does Perplexica MCP Server require a separate Perplexica instance?

Yes. The server connects to a running Perplexica instance via the `PERPLEXICA_BACKEND_URL`. You must ensure Perplexica is accessible at that URL.

How can I run Perplexica MCP Server in Docker?

Docker Compose files are provided for HTTP and SSE transports. Create an external Docker network named `backend`, set environment variables (e.g., `PERPLEXICA_BACKEND_URL`), then run `docker-compose up -d`. Both containers include health checks.

How do I test the server?

Run `uv run src/test_transports.py` to verify stdio, SSE, and HTTP transports, including MCP protocol handshake and endpoint accessibility.
