Perplexity

Inject Argyle data into code with Cursor

Use `get_income` to pull salary totals directly into your editor's context. The agent parses these responses, allowing you to write code that calculates or displays verified figures without mock data. This saves you from hardcoding dummy values. You get live API results that reflect actual user payroll snapshots.

Track employment history using Cursor

Call `get_employment` to fetch specific job records while you write your logic. Your agent reads the output, helping you map out data structures based on real-world history. Stop guessing the schema. You see exactly what the API returns while your cursor is still on the line.

Automate user list management in Cursor

Run `list_users` to populate your workspace with current account data. Use these records to feed your test scripts or debug your integration logic in real time. Your code benefits from seeing the actual state of your users. The agent handles the list, so you focus on the implementation.
