Agent API now supports reusable agents
Blog post from Perplexity
Perplexity has updated its Agent API with Profiles, custom Skills, and managed connectors to help teams create consistent, reusable AI agent workflows across applications. Profiles store versioned agent configurations, including models, instructions, tools, service connections, and runtime settings, while Skills package reusable procedures and supporting files, and connectors provide centrally managed access to approved external services or internal systems. These features allow project administrators to configure resources once and share them with authorized developers, reducing duplicated setup and enabling centralized updates to instructions, credentials, and integrations. Example uses include standardized incident response workflows using Datadog, GitHub, and Slack, as well as reusable deployment and rollback procedures for platform teams. Profiles and custom Skills are available for Agent API projects, while managed connectors are in preview with support for GitHub, Slack, Google Drive, Datadog, Linear, and Notion.
