Perplexity

Search and create jobsites in Claude Desktop

The `search_projects` tool lets your agent locate any active jobsite by name without leaving your workspace. Once found, the agent uses `get_project` to pull the exact address, current status, and project details. When a new job comes in, this MCP Server lets you run `create_project` to spin up the record instantly. This keeps your field records updated without requiring manual data entry.

Audit construction photos using this MCP Server

The `list_project_photos` tool retrieves every image associated with a specific jobsite so your agent can review progress. If you need details on a specific image, the server calls `get_photo_details` to extract timestamps, creator info, and upload metadata. You can also scan across the entire company using `list_all_photos` to find recent uploads. This gives you a fast way to run quality checks or verify that field crews are documenting their work correctly.

Track team activity and documents

The `list_project_documents` tool pulls PDF files, permits, and contracts associated with a job directly into your chat. Your agent can read these files to verify compliance or check scope details against field progress. To see who is assigned to a job, the agent runs `list_users` or `get_current_user` to match uploads with specific team members. It keeps your field operations transparent without forcing you to click through endless menus.
