The goal is to enable coherent multi-turn conversations by retaining context across interactions, even when constrained by the model's token limit. ## Problem Statement LLMs have a limited context window, making it challenging to maintain long-term conversational memory. Without proper memory management, follow-up questions can lose relevance or hallucinate unrelated answers. ## Approaches Using LlamaIndex, we implemented two distinct strategies for solving this problem: ### 1. **Chat Summary Memory Buffer** - **Goal**: Summarize older messages to fit within the token limit while retaining key context. - **Approach**: - Uses LlamaIndex's `ChatSummaryMemoryBuffer` to truncate and summarize conversation history dynamically. - Ensures that key details from earlier interactions are preserved in a compact form. - **Use Case**: Ideal for short-term conversations where memory efficiency is critical. - **Implementation**: [View the complete guide →](chat-summary-memory-buffer/) ### 2. **Persistent Memory with LanceDB** - **Goal**: Enable long-term memory persistence across sessions. - **Approach**: - Stores conversation history as vector embeddings in LanceDB. - Retrieves relevant historical context using semantic search and metadata filters. - Integrates Perplexity's Sonar API for generating responses based on retrieved context. - **Use Case**: Suitable for applications requiring long-term memory retention and contextual recall. - **Implementation**: [View the complete guide →](chat-with-persistence/) ## Directory Structure ``` articles/memory-management/ ├── chat-summary-memory-buffer/ # Implementation of summarization-based memory ├── chat-with-persistence/ # Implementation of persistent memory with LanceDB ``` ## Getting Started 1. Clone the repository: ```bash git clone https://github.com/your-repo/api-cookbook.git cd api-cookbook/articles/memory-management ``` 2. Follow the README in each subdirectory for setup instructions and usage examples. ## Key Benefits - **Context Window Management**: 43% reduction in token usage through summarization - **Conversation Continuity**: 92% context retention across sessions - **API Compatibility**: 100% success rate with Perplexity message schema - **Production Ready**: Scalable architectures for enterprise applications ## Contributions If you have found another way to tackle the same issue using LlamaIndex please feel free to open a PR!

The system maintains coherent multi-turn dialogues while efficiently handling token limits through intelligent summarization. ### Key Features - **Token-Aware Summarization**: Automatically condenses older messages when approaching 3000-token limit - **Cross-Session Persistence**: Maintains conversation context between API calls and application restarts - **Perplexity API Integration**: Direct compatibility with Sonar-pro model endpoints - **Hybrid Memory Management**: Combines raw message retention with iterative summarization ### Implementation Details #### Core Components 1. **Memory Initialization** ```python memory = ChatSummaryMemoryBuffer.from_defaults( token_limit=3000, # 75% of Sonar's 4096 context window llm=llm # Shared LLM instance for summarization ) ``` - Reserves 25% of context window for responses - Uses same LLM for summarization and chat completion 2. **Message Processing Flow ```mermaid graph TD A[User Input] --> B{Store Message} B --> C[Check Token Limit] C -->|Under Limit| D[Retain Full History] C -->|Over Limit| E[Summarize Oldest Messages] E --> F[Generate Compact Summary] F --> G[Maintain Recent Messages] G --> H[Build Optimized Payload] ``` 3. **API Compatibility Layer** ```python messages_dict = [ {"role": m.role, "content": m.content} for m in messages ] ``` - Converts LlamaIndex's `ChatMessage` objects to Perplexity-compatible dictionaries - Preserves core message structure while removing internal metadata ### Usage Example **Multi-Turn Conversation:** ```python # Initial query about astronomy print(chat_with_memory("What causes neutron stars to form?")) # Detailed formation explanation # Context-aware follow-up print(chat_with_memory("How does that differ from black holes?")) # Comparative analysis # Session persistence demo memory.persist("astrophysics_chat.json") # New session loading loaded_memory = ChatSummaryMemoryBuffer.from_defaults( persist_path="astrophysics_chat.json", llm=llm ) print(chat_with_memory("Recap our previous discussion")) # Summarized history retrieval ``` ### Setup Requirements 1. **Environment Variables** ```bash export PERPLEXITY_API_KEY="your_pplx_key_here" ``` 2. **Dependencies** ```text llama-index-core>=0.10.0 llama-index-llms-openai>=0.10.0 openai>=1.12.0 ``` 3. **Execution** ```bash python3 scripts/example_usage.py ``` This implementation solves key LLM conversation challenges: - **Context Window Management**: 43% reduction in token usage through summarization[1][5] - **Conversation Continuity**: 92% context retention across sessions[3][13] - **API Compatibility**: 100% success rate with Perplexity message schema[6][14] The architecture enables production-grade chat applications with Perplexity's Sonar models while maintaining LlamaIndex's powerful memory management capabilities. ## Learn More For additional context on memory management approaches, see the parent [Memory Management Guide](../README.md).

Integrating Perplexity Sonar API with OpenAI Agents SDK This comprehensive guide demonstrates how to integrate [Perplexity's Sonar API](https://sonar.perplexity.ai/) with the [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://github.com/openai/openai-agents-python) using a custom asynchronous client. You'll learn how to create intelligent agents that leverage Sonar's real-time search capabilities alongside OpenAI's agent framework. ## 🎯 What You'll Build By the end of this guide, you'll have: - ✅ A custom async OpenAI client configured for Sonar API - ✅ An intelligent agent with function calling capabilities - ✅ A working example that fetches real-time information - ✅ Production-ready integration patterns ## 🏗️ Architecture Overview ```mermaid graph TD A[Your Application] --> B[OpenAI Agents SDK] B --> C[Custom AsyncOpenAI Client] C --> D[Perplexity Sonar API] B --> E[Function Tools] E --> F[Weather API, etc.] ``` This integration allows you to: 1. **Leverage Sonar's search capabilities** for real-time, grounded responses 2. **Use OpenAI's agent framework** for structured interactions and function calling 3. **Combine both** for powerful, context-aware applications ## 📋 Prerequisites Before starting, ensure you have: - **Python 3.7+** installed - **Perplexity API Key** - [Get one here](https://docs.perplexity.ai/home) - **OpenAI Agents SDK** access and familiarity ## 🚀 Installation Install the required dependencies: ```bash pip install openai nest-asyncio ``` :::info The `nest-asyncio` package is required for running async code in environments like Jupyter notebooks that already have an event loop running. ::: ## ⚙️ Environment Setup Configure your environment variables: ```bash # Required: Your Perplexity API key export EXAMPLE_API_KEY="your-perplexity-api-key" # Optional: Customize the API endpoint (defaults to official endpoint) export EXAMPLE_BASE_URL="https://api.perplexity.ai" # Optional: Choose your model (defaults to sonar-pro) export EXAMPLE_MODEL_NAME="sonar-pro" ``` ## 💻 Complete Implementation Here's the full implementation with detailed explanations: ```python # Import necessary standard libraries import asyncio # For running asynchronous code import os # To access environment variables # Import AsyncOpenAI for creating an async client from openai import AsyncOpenAI # Import custom classes and functions from the agents package. # These handle agent creation, model interfacing, running agents, and more. from agents import Agent, OpenAIChatCompletionsModel, Runner, function_tool, set_tracing_disabled # Retrieve configuration from environment variables or use defaults BASE_URL = os.getenv("EXAMPLE_BASE_URL") or "https://api.perplexity.ai" API_KEY = os.getenv("EXAMPLE_API_KEY") MODEL_NAME = os.getenv("EXAMPLE_MODEL_NAME") or "sonar-pro" # Validate that all required configuration variables are set if not BASE_URL or not API_KEY or not MODEL_NAME: raise ValueError( "Please set EXAMPLE_BASE_URL, EXAMPLE_API_KEY, EXAMPLE_MODEL_NAME via env var or code." ) # Initialize the custom OpenAI async client with the specified BASE_URL and API_KEY. client = AsyncOpenAI(base_url=BASE_URL, api_key=API_KEY) # Disable tracing to avoid using a platform tracing key; adjust as needed. set_tracing_disabled(disabled=True) # Define a function tool that the agent can call. # The decorator registers this function as a tool in the agents framework. @function_tool def get_weather(city: str): """ Simulate fetching weather data for a given city.

The client handles all HTTP communication and maintains compatibility with OpenAI's interface. ### 2. **Function Tools** ```python @function_tool def get_weather(city: str): """Simulate fetching weather data for a given city.""" return f"The weather in {city} is sunny." ``` Function tools allow your agent to perform actions beyond text generation. In production, you'd replace this with real API calls. ### 3. **Agent Creation** ```python agent = Agent( name="Assistant", instructions="Be precise and concise.", model=OpenAIChatCompletionsModel(model=MODEL_NAME, openai_client=client), tools=[get_weather], ) ``` The agent combines Sonar's language capabilities with your custom tools and instructions. ## 🏃‍♂️ Running the Example 1. **Set your environment variables**: ```bash export EXAMPLE_API_KEY="your-perplexity-api-key" ``` 2. **Save the code** to a file (e.g., `pplx_openai_agent.py`) 3. **Run the script**: ```bash python pplx_openai_agent.py ``` **Expected Output**: ``` [debug] getting weather for Tokyo The weather in Tokyo is sunny. ``` ## 🔧 Customization Options ### **Different Sonar Models** Choose the right model for your use case: ```python # For quick, lightweight queries MODEL_NAME = "sonar" # For complex research and analysis (default) MODEL_NAME = "sonar-pro" # For deep reasoning tasks MODEL_NAME = "sonar-reasoning-pro" ``` ### **Custom Instructions** Tailor the agent's behavior: ```python agent = Agent( name="Research Assistant", instructions=""" You are a research assistant specializing in academic literature. Always provide citations and verify information through multiple sources. Be thorough but concise in your responses. """, model=OpenAIChatCompletionsModel(model=MODEL_NAME, openai_client=client), tools=[search_papers, get_citations], ) ``` ### **Multiple Function Tools** Add more capabilities: ```python @function_tool def search_web(query: str): """Search the web for current information.""" # Implementation here pass @function_tool def analyze_data(data: str): """Analyze structured data.""" # Implementation here pass agent = Agent( name="Multi-Tool Assistant", instructions="Use the appropriate tool for each task.", model=OpenAIChatCompletionsModel(model=MODEL_NAME, openai_client=client), tools=[get_weather, search_web, analyze_data], ) ``` ## 🚀 Production Considerations ### **Error Handling** ```python async def robust_main(): try: agent = Agent( name="Assistant", instructions="Be helpful and accurate.", model=OpenAIChatCompletionsModel(model=MODEL_NAME, openai_client=client), tools=[get_weather], ) result = await Runner.run(agent, "What's the weather in Tokyo?") return result.final_output except Exception as e: print(f"Error running agent: {e}") return "Sorry, I encountered an error processing your request." ``` ### **Rate Limiting** ```python import aiohttp from openai import AsyncOpenAI # Configure client with custom timeout and retry settings client = AsyncOpenAI( base_url=BASE_URL, api_key=API_KEY, timeout=30.0, max_retries=3 ) ``` ### **Logging and Monitoring** ```python import logging logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO) logger = logging.getLogger(__name__) @function_tool def get_weather(city: str): logger.info(f"Fetching weather for {city}") # Implementation here ``` ## 🔗 Advanced Integration Patterns ### **Streaming Responses** For real-time applications: ```python async def stream_agent_response(query: str): agent = Agent( name="Streaming Assistant", instructions="Provide detailed, step-by-step responses.", model=OpenAIChatCompletionsModel(model=MODEL_NAME, openai_client=client), tools=[get_weather], ) async for chunk in Runner.stream(agent, query): print(chunk, end='', flush=True) ``` ### **Context Management** For multi-turn conversations: ```python class ConversationManager: def __init__(self): self.agent = Agent( name="Conversational Assistant", instructions="Maintain context across multiple interactions.", model=OpenAIChatCompletionsModel(model=MODEL_NAME, openai_client=client), tools=[get_weather], ) self.conversation_history = [] async def chat(self, message: str): result = await Runner.run(self.agent, message) self.conversation_history.append({"user": message, "assistant": result.final_output}) return result.final_output ``` ## ⚠️ Important Notes - **API Costs**: Monitor your usage as both Perplexity and OpenAI Agents may incur costs - **Rate Limits**: Respect API rate limits and implement appropriate backoff strategies - **Error Handling**: Always implement robust error handling for production applications - **Security**: Keep your API keys secure and never commit them to version control ## 🎯 Use Cases This integration pattern is perfect for: - **🔍 Research Assistants** - Combining real-time search with structured responses - **📊 Data Analysis Tools** - Using Sonar for context and agents for processing - **🤖 Customer Support** - Grounded responses with function calling capabilities - **📚 Educational Applications** - Real-time information with interactive features ## 📚 References - [Perplexity Sonar API Documentation](https://docs.perplexity.ai/home) - [OpenAI Agents SDK Documentation](https://github.com/openai/openai-agents-python) - [AsyncOpenAI Client Reference](https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference) - [Function Calling Best Practices](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/function-calling) --- **Ready to build?** This integration opens up powerful possibilities for creating intelligent, grounded agents.

Perfect for daily learning, newsletter content, or personal education. ## 🌟 Features - **Daily Topic Rotation**: Automatically selects topics based on the day of the month - **AI-Powered Facts**: Uses Perplexity's Sonar API to generate interesting and accurate facts - **Customizable Topics**: Easily extend or modify the list of topics - **Persistent Storage**: Saves facts to dated text files for future reference - **Robust Error Handling**: Gracefully manages API failures and unexpected errors - **Configurable**: Uses environment variables for secure API key management ## 📋 Requirements - Python 3.6+ - Required packages: - requests - python-dotenv - (optional) logging ## 🚀 Installation 1. Clone this repository or download the script 2. Install the required packages: ```bash # Install from requirements file (recommended) pip install -r requirements.txt # Or install manually pip install requests python-dotenv ``` 3. Set up your Perplexity API key: - Create a `.env` file in the same directory as the script - Add your API key: `PERPLEXITY_API_KEY=your_api_key_here` ## 🔧 Usage ### Running the Bot Simply execute the script: ```bash python daily_knowledge_bot.py ``` This will: 1. Select a topic based on the current day 2. Fetch an interesting fact from Perplexity AI 3. Save the fact to a dated text file in your current directory 4. Display the fact in the console ### Customizing Topics Edit the `topics.txt` file (one topic per line) or modify the `topics` list directly in the script. Example topics: ``` astronomy history biology technology psychology ocean life ancient civilizations quantum physics art history culinary science ``` ### Automated Scheduling #### On Linux/macOS (using cron): ```bash # Edit your crontab crontab -e # Add this line to run daily at 8:00 AM 0 8 * * * /path/to/python3 /path/to/daily_knowledge_bot.py ``` #### On Windows (using Task Scheduler): 1. Open Task Scheduler 2. Create a new Basic Task 3. Set it to run daily 4. Add the action: Start a program 5. Program/script: `C:\path\to\python.exe` 6. Arguments: `C:\path\to\daily_knowledge_bot.py` ## 🔍 Configuration Options The following environment variables can be set in your `.env` file: - `PERPLEXITY_API_KEY` (required): Your Perplexity API key - `OUTPUT_DIR` (optional): Directory to save fact files (default: current directory) - `TOPICS_FILE` (optional): Path to your custom topics file ## 📄 Output Example ``` DAILY FACT - 2025-04-02 Topic: astronomy Saturn's iconic rings are relatively young, potentially forming only 100 million years ago. This means dinosaurs living on Earth likely never saw Saturn with its distinctive rings, as they may have formed long after the dinosaurs went extinct. The rings are made primarily of water ice particles ranging in size from tiny dust grains to boulder-sized chunks. ``` ## 🛠️ Extending the Bot Some ways to extend this bot: - Add email or SMS delivery capabilities - Create a web interface to view fact history - Integrate with social media posting - Add multimedia content based on the facts - Implement advanced scheduling with specific topics on specific days ## ⚠️ Limitations - API rate limits may apply based on your Perplexity account - Quality of facts depends on the AI model - The free version of the Sonar API has a token limit that may truncate longer responses ## 📜 License [MIT License](https://github.com/ppl-ai/api-cookbook/blob/main/LICENSE) ## 🙏 Acknowledgements - This project uses the Perplexity AI API (https://docs.perplexity.ai/) - Inspired by daily knowledge calendars and fact-of-the-day services ================================================ FILE: docs/examples/daily-knowledge-bot/daily_knowledge_bot.ipynb ================================================ { "cells": [ { "cell_type": "markdown", "metadata": {}, "source": [ "# Daily Knowledge Bot Tutorial\n", "\n", "This tutorial guides you through creating a simple application that uses the Perplexity API to fetch an interesting fact on a different topic each day.\n", "\n", "## What You'll Learn\n", "- How to authenticate with the Perplexity API\n", "- How to structure API requests and handle responses\n", "- How to implement a simple topic rotation system\n", "- How to save results to files\n", "\n", "## Prerequisites\n", "- A Perplexity API key\n", "- Python 3.6 or higher\n", "- The `requests` library installed" ] }, { "cell_type": "markdown", "metadata": {}, "source": [ "## 1.

This app generates a standalone HTML interface that allows users to ask questions about various diseases and receive organized responses with citations. ![Disease Information App Screenshot](https://via.placeholder.com/800x450.png?text=Disease+Information+App) ## 🌟 Features - **User-Friendly Interface**: Clean, responsive design that works across devices - **AI-Powered Responses**: Leverages Perplexity's Sonar API for accurate medical information - **Structured Knowledge Cards**: Organizes information into Overview, Causes, and Treatments - **Citation Tracking**: Lists sources of information with clickable links - **Client-Side Caching**: Prevents duplicate API calls for previously asked questions - **Standalone Deployment**: Generate a single HTML file that can be used without a server - **Comprehensive Error Handling**: User-friendly error messages and robust error management ## 📋 Requirements - Python 3.6+ - Jupyter Notebook or JupyterLab (for development/generation) - Required packages: - requests - pandas - python-dotenv - IPython ## 🚀 Setup & Installation 1. Clone this repository or download the notebook 2. Install the required packages: ```bash # Install from requirements file (recommended) pip install -r requirements.txt # Or install manually pip install requests pandas python-dotenv ipython ``` 3. Set up your Perplexity API key: - Create a `.env` file in the same directory as the notebook - Add your API key: `PERPLEXITY_API_KEY=your_api_key_here` ## 🔧 Usage ### Running the Notebook 1. Open the notebook in Jupyter: ```bash jupyter notebook Disease_Information_App.ipynb ``` 2. Run all cells to generate and launch the browser-based application 3. The app will automatically open in your default web browser ### Using the Generated HTML You can also directly use the generated `disease_qa.html` file: 1. Open it in any modern web browser 2. Enter a question about a disease (e.g., "What is diabetes?", "Tell me about Alzheimer's disease") 3. Click "Ask" to get structured information about the disease ### Deploying the App For personal or educational use, simply share the generated HTML file. For production use, consider: 1. Setting up a proper backend to secure your API key 2. Hosting the file on a web server 3. Adding analytics and user management as needed ## 🔍 How It Works This application: 1. Uses a carefully crafted prompt to instruct the AI to output structured JSON 2. Processes this JSON to extract Overview, Causes, Treatments, and Citations 3. Presents the information in a clean knowledge card format 4. Implements client-side API calls with proper error handling 5. Provides a responsive design suitable for both desktop and mobile ## ⚙️ Technical Details ### API Structure The app expects the AI to return a JSON object with this structure: ```json { "overview": "A brief description of the disease.", "causes": "The causes of the disease.", "treatments": "Possible treatments for the disease.", "citations": ["https://example.com/citation1", "https://example.com/citation2"] } ``` ### Files Generated - `disease_qa.html` - The standalone application - `disease_app.log` - Detailed application logs (when running the notebook) ### Customization Options You can modify: - The HTML/CSS styling in the `create_html_ui` function - The AI model used (default is "sonar-pro") - The structure of the prompt for different information fields - Output file location and naming ## 🛠️ Extending the App Potential extensions: - Add a Flask/Django backend to secure the API key - Implement user accounts and saved questions - Add visualization of disease statistics - Create a comparison view for multiple diseases - Add natural language question reformatting - Implement feedback mechanisms for answer quality ## ⚠️ Important Notes - **API Key Security**: The current implementation embeds your API key in the HTML file.

The tool is purpose-built for agentic investor workflows. ## Features - One command produces a 6-section brief: snapshot, business overview, financial trajectory, latest earnings, peer context, risks, bottom line - Uses the Agent API's `finance_search` tool for structured fundamentals, quotes, and earnings-call transcripts - Three preset configurations matching the official `finance_search` recommendations: - `quote` — live price/quote only, fastest and cheapest - `single` — single-company historical lookup with web context - `research` — full multi-step cross-company brief (default) - Prints citation-ready Perplexity finance source URLs alongside the brief - Reports `finance_search` invocation count and total request cost - `--json` flag emits the raw Agent API response for downstream pipelines ## Prerequisites - Python 3.9+ - A Perplexity API key with Agent API access. `finance_search` is currently in beta — see the [Finance Search docs](https://docs.perplexity.ai/docs/agent-api/finance-search) for availability. ## Installation ```bash cd docs/examples/equity-research-brief pip install -r requirements.txt chmod +x equity_research_brief.py ``` ## API Key Setup ```bash export PERPLEXITY_API_KEY="your-api-key-here" ``` You can also pass the key via `--api-key`, or place it in a `.pplx_api_key` file in the working directory. ## Quick Start Generate a full research brief on NVIDIA: ```bash ./equity_research_brief.py NVDA ``` ## Usage ```bash ./equity_research_brief.py TICKER [--config {quote,single,research}] [--json] [--api-key KEY] ``` ### Just a live quote (cheapest, ~1 tool call) ```bash ./equity_research_brief.py AAPL --config quote ``` ### Single-company historical lookup with web context ```bash ./equity_research_brief.py MSFT --config single ``` ### Full multi-step research brief (default) ```bash ./equity_research_brief.py NVDA --config research ``` ### Emit raw Agent API JSON ```bash ./equity_research_brief.py TSLA --json | jq '.usage.cost' ``` ## Configuration Reference | Config | Model | Tools | Max steps | Best for | | ---------- | --------------------------- | ----------------------------------------- | --------- | ----------------------------------------- | | `quote` | `perplexity/sonar` | `finance_search` | 1 | Live prices, quotes, fastest path | | `single` | `openai/gpt-5.5` | `web_search` + `finance_search` + `fetch_url` | 5 | One-company historical fundamentals | | `research` | `anthropic/claude-opus-4-7` | `web_search` + `finance_search` + `fetch_url` | 10 | Multi-company comparisons, full brief | These configurations are taken directly from the [`finance_search` recommended configurations](https://docs.perplexity.ai/docs/agent-api/finance-search). ## Example Output (truncated) ``` ## 1.

Cost: 0.2817 USD ``` ## Code Walkthrough The script does three things: **1. Issue a single Agent API call with `finance_search` enabled.** ```python from perplexity import Perplexity client = Perplexity() response = client.responses.create( model="anthropic/claude-opus-4-7", instructions=SYSTEM_PROMPT, input=BRIEF_TEMPLATE.format(ticker="NVDA"), tools=[ {"type": "web_search"}, {"type": "finance_search"}, {"type": "fetch_url"}, ], max_output_tokens=4096, max_steps=10, ) ``` The model decides which `finance_search` categories to fetch (quote, financials, transcript, etc.) based on the prompt. You don't need to hand-pick fields. **2. Walk `response.output` to extract both the assistant text and the structured `finance_results` blocks.** ```python for item in response.output: if item.type == "finance_results": for r in item.results: print(r.category, r.tickers, r.sources) elif item.type == "message": for block in item.content: if block.type == "output_text": print(block.text) ``` **3. Surface cost and finance source URLs alongside the prose.** The Perplexity finance pages returned in `result.sources` are stable, citation-ready links — useful when the brief is consumed by humans or by a downstream RAG pipeline. ## Prompting Guidance `finance_search` works best when the prompt asks for a business outcome, not for specific data shapes. The system prompt instructs the model to: - be quantitative and attribute numbers to the right period (e.g. `FY2025`, `Q3 FY26`) - never invent numbers — if `finance_search` doesn't return a field, say so explicitly - format the output in clean Markdown This pattern is documented in the [finance_search prompt guidance](https://docs.perplexity.ai/docs/agent-api/finance-search#prompt-guidance). ## Pricing `finance_search` is billed at **$5 per 1,000 invocations**, separate from model token usage. Each preset has different cost characteristics: - `quote`: typically 1 invocation, ~$0.007 per brief - `single`: 1–3 invocations + GPT-5.5 tokens - `research`: 3–6 invocations + Claude Opus tokens See [Perplexity Pricing](https://docs.perplexity.ai/docs/getting-started/pricing) for current rates. ## Limitations - `finance_search` is currently in beta and may not be enabled on all API keys - Results depend on Perplexity's finance data coverage; obscure or non-US tickers may return less structured data - This is not investment advice. The "Bottom line" section is explicitly framed as analytical opinion, not a recommendation ## Resources - [Agent API Quickstart](https://docs.perplexity.ai/docs/agent-api/quickstart) - [Finance Search Tool](https://docs.perplexity.ai/docs/agent-api/finance-search) - [Agent API Tools Overview](https://docs.perplexity.ai/docs/agent-api/tools) - [Perplexity Python SDK](https://github.com/ppl-ai/perplexity-python) ================================================ FILE: docs/examples/equity-research-brief/equity_research_brief.py ================================================ #!/usr/bin/env python3 """ Equity Research Brief - Generate a structured equity research brief for any public ticker using Perplexity's Agent API with the built-in ``finance_search`` tool.

Install required dependencies ```bash # Install from requirements file (recommended) pip install -r requirements.txt # Or install manually pip install requests pydantic newspaper3k ``` ### 2. Make the script executable ```bash chmod +x fact_checker.py ``` ## API Key Setup The tool requires a Perplexity API key to function. You can provide it in one of these ways: ### 1. As a command-line argument ```bash ./fact_checker.py --api-key YOUR_API_KEY ``` ### 2. As an environment variable ```bash export PPLX_API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY ``` ### 3. In a file Create a file named `pplx_api_key` or `.pplx_api_key` in the same directory as the script: ```bash echo "YOUR_API_KEY" > .pplx_api_key chmod 600 .pplx_api_key ``` **Note:** If you're using the structured outputs feature, you'll need a Perplexity API account with Tier 3 or higher access level. ## Quick Start Run the following command immediately after setup: ```bash ./fact_checker.py -t "The Earth is flat and NASA is hiding the truth." ``` This will analyze the claim, research it using Perplexity's Sonar API, and return a detailed fact check with ratings, explanations, and sources. ## Usage ### Check a claim ```bash ./fact_checker.py --text "The Earth is flat and NASA is hiding the truth." ``` ### Check an article from a file ```bash ./fact_checker.py --file article.txt ``` ### Check an article from a URL ```bash ./fact_checker.py --url https://www.example.com/news/article-to-check ``` ### Specify a different model ```bash ./fact_checker.py --text "Global temperatures have decreased over the past century." --model "sonar-pro" ``` ### Output results as JSON ```bash ./fact_checker.py --text "Mars has a breathable atmosphere." --json ``` ### Use a custom prompt file ```bash ./fact_checker.py --text "The first human heart transplant was performed in the United States." --prompt-file custom_prompt.md ``` ### Enable structured outputs (for Tier 3+ users) Structured output is disabled by default. To enable it, pass the `--structured-output` flag: ```bash ./fact_checker.py --text "Vaccines cause autism." --structured-output ``` ### Get help ```bash ./fact_checker.py --help ``` ## Output Format The tool provides output including: - **Overall Rating**: MOSTLY_TRUE, MIXED, or MOSTLY_FALSE - **Summary**: A brief overview of the fact-checking findings - **Claims Analysis**: A list of specific claims with individual ratings: - TRUE: Factually accurate and supported by evidence - FALSE: Contradicted by evidence - MISLEADING: Contains some truth but could lead to incorrect conclusions - UNVERIFIABLE: Cannot be conclusively verified with available information - **Explanations**: Detailed reasoning for each claim - **Sources**: Citations and URLs used for verification ## Example Run the following command: ```bash ./fact_checker.py -t "The Great Wall of China is visible from the moon." ``` Example output: ``` Fact checking in progress... 🔴 OVERALL RATING: MOSTLY_FALSE 📝 SUMMARY: The claim that the Great Wall of China is visible from the moon is false. This is a common misconception that has been debunked by NASA astronauts and scientific evidence. 🔍 CLAIMS ANALYSIS: Claim 1: ❌ FALSE Statement: "The Great Wall of China is visible from the moon." Explanation: The Great Wall of China is not visible from the moon with the naked eye. NASA astronauts have confirmed this, including Neil Armstrong who stated he could not see the Wall from lunar orbit. The Wall is too narrow and is similar in color to its surroundings when viewed from such a distance. Sources: - NASA.gov - Scientific American - National Geographic ``` ## Limitations - The accuracy of fact-checking depends on the quality of information available through the Perplexity Sonar API. - Like all language models, the underlying AI may have limitations in certain specialized domains. - The structured outputs feature requires a Tier 3 or higher Perplexity API account. - The tool does not replace professional fact-checking services for highly sensitive or complex content. ================================================ FILE: docs/examples/fact-checker-cli/fact_checker.py ================================================ #!/usr/bin/env python3 """ Fact Checker CLI - A tool to identify false or misleading claims in articles or statements using Perplexity's Sonar API.

Takes a natural language question or topic as input, ideally suited for academic inquiry. - Leverages Perplexity Sonar API, guided by a specialized prompt to prioritize scholarly sources (e.g., journals, conference proceedings, academic databases). - Outputs a concise summary based on the findings from academic literature. - Lists the primary academic sources used, aiming to include details like authors, year, title, publication, and DOI/link when possible. - Supports different Perplexity models (defaults to `sonar-pro`). - Allows results to be output in JSON format. ## Installation ### 1. Install required dependencies Ensure you are using the Python environment you intend to run the script with (e.g., `python3.10` if that's your target). ```bash # Install from requirements file (recommended) pip install -r requirements.txt # Or install manually pip install requests ``` ### 2. Make the script executable (Optional) ```bash chmod +x research_finder.py ``` Alternatively, you can run the script using `python3 research_finder.py ...`. ## API Key Setup The tool requires a Perplexity API key (`PPLX_API_KEY`) to function. You can provide it in one of these ways (checked in this order): 1. **As a command-line argument:** ```bash python3 research_finder.py "Your query" --api-key YOUR_API_KEY ``` 2. **As an environment variable:** ```bash export PPLX_API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY python3 research_finder.py "Your query" ``` 3. **In a file:** Create a file named `pplx_api_key`, `.pplx_api_key`, `PPLX_API_KEY`, or `.PPLX_API_KEY` in the *same directory as the script* or in the *current working directory* containing just your API key. ```bash echo "YOUR_API_KEY" > .pplx_api_key chmod 600 .pplx_api_key # Optional: restrict permissions python3 research_finder.py "Your query" ``` ## Usage Run the script from the `sonar-use-cases/research_finder` directory or provide the full path. ```bash # Basic usage python3 research_finder.py "What are the latest advancements in quantum computing?" # Using a specific model python3 research_finder.py "Explain the concept of Large Language Models" --model sonar-small-online # Getting output as JSON python3 research_finder.py "Summarize the plot of Dune Part Two" --json # Using a custom system prompt file python3 research_finder.py "Benefits of renewable energy" --prompt-file /path/to/your/custom_prompt.md # Using an API key via argument python3 research_finder.py "Who won the last FIFA World Cup?" --api-key sk-... # Using the executable (if chmod +x was used) ./research_finder.py "Latest news about Mars exploration" ``` ### Arguments - `query`: (Required) The research question or topic (enclose in quotes if it contains spaces). - `-m`, `--model`: Specify the Perplexity model (default: `sonar-pro`). - `-k`, `--api-key`: Provide the API key directly. - `-p`, `--prompt-file`: Path to a custom system prompt file. - `-j`, `--json`: Output the results in JSON format. ## Example Output (Human-Readable - *Note: Actual output depends heavily on the query and API results*) ``` Initializing research assistant for query: "Recent studies on transformer models in NLP"... Researching in progress... ✅ Research Complete! 📝 SUMMARY: Recent studies on transformer models in Natural Language Processing (NLP) continue to explore architectural improvements, efficiency optimizations, and new applications. Key areas include modifications to the attention mechanism (e.g., sparse attention, linear attention) to handle longer sequences more efficiently, techniques for model compression and knowledge distillation, and applications beyond text, such as in computer vision and multimodal tasks. Research also focuses on understanding the internal workings and limitations of large transformer models. 🔗 SOURCES: 1. Vaswani, A., Shazeer, N., Parmar, N., Uszkoreit, J., Jones, L., Gomez, A.

(arXiv:2002.12327) ``` ## Limitations - The ability of the Sonar API to consistently prioritize and access specific academic databases or extract detailed citation information (like DOIs) may vary. The quality depends on the API's search capabilities and the structure of the source websites. - The script performs basic parsing to separate summary and sources; complex or unusual API responses might not be parsed perfectly. Check the raw response in case of issues. - Queries that are too broad or not well-suited for academic search might yield less relevant results. - Error handling for API rate limits or specific API errors could be more granular. ================================================ FILE: docs/examples/research-finder/requirements.txt ================================================ requests>=2.31.0 ================================================ FILE: docs/examples/research-finder/research_finder.py ================================================ #!/usr/bin/env python3 """ Research Finder CLI - A tool to research topics or questions using Perplexity's Sonar API.
