Brain-augmented web research. Sends brain context about a topic to Perplexity, which searches the web with citations and returns what is NEW vs what the brain already knows. Use for entity enrichment, current-state checks, deal monitoring, and freshness deltas. NOT for simple URL fetches (use web_fetch) or brain-only queries (use gbrain query).

Low-risk findings.
1 low severity finding. Worth noting, but not necessarily harmful.
The skill exposes the agent to untrusted, user-generated content from public third-party sources, creating a risk of indirect prompt injection. This includes browsing arbitrary URLs, reading social media posts or forum comments, and analyzing content from unknown websites.
In SKILL.md, the runtime path composes a Perplexity prompt by embedding “brain context” (gbrain output) and then relies on Perplexity to “search + reads” web pages, but the skill itself does not define an ingestion path where outsider-authored free text is first posted into a feed/queue the workflow reads without first selecting a specific item.
