Perplexity

Format phone numbers in bash using this MCP Server

The `format_phone` tool cleans and standardizes raw phone strings into valid E.164 format. Claude Code runs this tool directly from your CLI, letting you pipe dirty log files or database dumps into formatted lists without writing a single line of python. This terminal-first approach replaces clunky web UI tools and manual spreadsheet formatting. You get clean, verified phone records ready for your SMS gateway in a fraction of a second.

Parse complex name strings in headless environments

The `parse_name` tool breaks full-name strings down into salutations, first names, middle names, and surnames. Claude Code uses this tool inside your shell scripts to clean up user data before importing it into production databases. Managing multi-part surnames or academic suffixes usually breaks simple split functions. This tool handles those linguistic edge cases automatically, keeping your database migrations clean and accurate.

Classify name origins and gender via the CLI

The `get_origin` and `get_gender` tools analyze surname and first-name structures to determine geographic origin and gender. Claude Code executes these tools over lists of names, outputting structured JSON that you can pipe directly to other CLI utilities. This headless execution pattern fits perfectly into cron jobs and automated data pipelines. You get fast, scriptable demographic classification without dealing with complex SDK integrations.
