How does the skill choose between Sonar Pro and Reasoning Pro?

It uses an internal complexity scoring system that detects reasoning keywords (like 'compare', 'analyze', 'mechanism') and sentence structure to automatically route queries to the most capable model.

Can I manually override the model selection?

Yes, you can use the force_model parameter set to 'pro' or 'reasoning' via the Python API or use the --force-model flag in the command-line interface.

What are the API requirements for this skill?

You must have an OpenRouter API key set as the OPENROUTER_API_KEY environment variable and a valid account with credits to access Perplexity's models.

Does this skill provide properly formatted citations?

Yes, it provides complete bibliographic information including authors, titles, journals, years, and DOI links, specifically prioritizing peer-reviewed academic sources.

Is the research limited by a training cutoff?

Because it uses Perplexity's online models, it can access current web and academic data from 2024, overcoming standard LLM training data limitations.
