Comet

Verification notes: Upgraded from self-declared this pass — the prior gap ('no official Perplexity documentation... found') is now partly closed. Perplexity's own Help Center (last updated July 16, 2026) confirms local MCP connector support is live for 'the Perplexity Mac app,' with remote MCP connectors described as 'coming soon,' and a separate official changelog entry from March 13, 2026 ('Bring Your Own Connector') confirms Pro/Max/Enterprise subscribers can add custom MCP servers to Perplexity and to 'Computer,' Perplexity's broader agent product. What official sources don't clearly establish is whether that MCP support extends to Comet specifically, as opposed to the separate Perplexity assistant app and Computer product — a technical write-up from SquareX Labs (June 2026) states Comet supports only its built-in connector catalog (Slack, GitHub, Notion, and others, which Perplexity describes as MCP-based under the hood) and not user-added custom MCP servers. Given that ambiguity, the mcp flag stays false for this Comet-specific listing rather than being marked true on the strength of Perplexity's product family as a whole. Re-checked this pass: remote custom MCP connectors have since matured well beyond 'coming soon' — Perplexity's Help Center article on the feature (last updated August 14, 2026) now documents organization-wide sharing, Cloudflare Access and AWS PrivateLink support for private MCP servers, and OAuth/API-key/none authentication — but the article scopes the capability to account- and organization-level settings, not to Comet specifically, and SquareX Labs' Comet-scoped finding is unchanged as of this pass. The mcp:false call for this Comet-specific listing therefore still holds. See the new Web Bot Auth listing, which separately confirms Comet as one of Cloudflare's 19 initially-verified AI agent browsers. Re-checked 2026-09-28: no new official Perplexity statement resolves the Comet-specific ambiguity. Perplexity's own Help Center article on MCP setup scopes the feature to “the Perplexity Mac app” and the Perplexity homepage, never Comet; a full read of the Comet collection's articles and the separate Connectors & Integrations collection turned up no mention of MCP or custom connectors for Comet specifically. The June 2026 SquareX Labs finding — that Comet supports only its built-in connector catalog, not user-added MCP servers — remains uncontradicted by any primary Perplexity source. mcp:false stands as the conservative, non-overstating call for this Comet-specific listing.
