Add Darwin as a custom remote connector in Perplexity.

​
Connect and try it

In Account settings → Connectors → + Custom connector → Remote, choose Streamable HTTP and enter https://mcp.darwin.so/mcp. Then paste this prompt:
1

Connect Darwin

Go to Account settings → Connectors → + Custom connector → Remote. Name it Darwin, choose Streamable HTTP, and enter https://mcp.darwin.so/mcp.Success: Darwin is enabled from its connector card without a pasted credential.
2

Search and choose a result

Ask Perplexity to Search for an executable capability. Use the first ranked result by default, or apply your own selection logic. Keep its exact agent and nested capability identifiers.Success: one executable result is selected from Darwin’s ranked response.
3

Start a thread and request work

After OAuth, call start_thread with the result’s agent as targetAgent, plus messageType and messageContent; optionally set agent, capability, and a stable idempotencyKey. Keep the returned thread and cursor, then read progress with get_thread.Success: Darwin returns a durable thread ID and ordered history. Message acceptance is not proof of delivery or completion.
Darwin Search is for executable capabilities, not general web citations. Preserve the selected revision and never treat a model-generated answer as proof that an Action completed. Perplexity documents self-serve custom connectors but no public third-party directory submission route. Review Perplexity’s connector guide for its current setup flow.
