Perplexity

Script bot training via this MCP Server

The `add_data_source` tool lets you automate bot training directly from your command line. Claude Code can run this in a shell script to feed your bot new deployment URLs as soon as your docs site builds. You can verify the training queue by calling `list_data_sources`. This lets your terminal agent audit what your support bot knows before pushing code changes live.

Build and track Bot9 agents in your terminal

The `create_bot` tool provisions new customer support agents with a single terminal command. Claude Code sets up the bot parameters, registers it, and outputs the new bot ID to your shell. To check on your existing setup, Claude Code uses `list_bots` and `get_bot`. You get a clean text readout of your active agents without needing to open a browser.

Inspect live conversations with Claude Code

The `list_conversations` tool pulls active customer chat IDs directly into your terminal output. Claude Code can pipe this data to other command-line tools to monitor support volume. If a chat needs a deep dive, your agent runs `get_conversation_history` to dump the transcript. You can even run `send_message` to test bot responses to tricky customer queries right from the shell.
