When should I use Perplexity over Context7?

Use Perplexity for general web research and 'latest trends' queries. Use Context7 specifically for official library or framework documentation to get more accurate technical results.

How does this skill manage token usage and context bloat?

The skill defaults to a limit of 3 search results and reduced per-page token counts, ensuring Claude receives high-quality information without overwhelming the context window.

Can I perform deep multi-source research with this skill?

Yes, for complex topics, the skill recommends using the integrated researcher agent via the /research command for synthesized answers with citations.

Does this skill search my local project files?

No, this skill is for external web searches. For workspace-specific questions like build configurations or project dependencies, use the Nx MCP tool.
