Perplexity

Run network audits inside Claude Desktop

The `quick_alumni_network_audit` tool fetches a high-level summary of your former employees, active events, and open jobs on the platform. Claude Desktop runs this check locally via stdio, letting you assess network health without opening a browser. You get instant numbers on network activity. This lets you spot trends and plan your outreach strategy based on hard data instead of guessing.

Pull detailed alumni profiles on demand

The `get_alumni_detailed_profile` tool extracts complete work histories, skills, and community memberships for individual members. Claude Desktop displays this structured data directly in your chat interface so you can prepare for warm introductions. Combine this with `search_alumni_by_name_or_keyword` to find the exact talent you need. You skip manual database searches and let your agent build targeted lists of qualified former colleagues.

Track active events and job boards

The `list_alumni_events` tool pulls upcoming gatherings and past attendance records directly into your workspace. Claude Desktop uses this data to help you coordinate regional meetups or track which events draw the most former employees. You can also use `list_alumni_job_board` to check active job postings. This keeps your agent updated on what roles are open so you can match them with alumni looking for their next move.
