Perplexity

Structured Account Verification

Use `get_waba_details` and `get_business_profile` to pull account credentials. Since every response validates against a schema, you know exactly what fields you're getting—no unexpected data types. This means your agent can trust the returned JSON structure before attempting any messaging calls.

Message Actions with Type Safety

If you call `send_template_message`, Pydantic validates that all required template variables are provided and formatted correctly. If something is missing, the agent fails loudly—you don't get silent corruption. Similarly, deleting a message template via `delete_message_template` confirms the ID exists before execution.

Resource Discovery Tools

To start, run `list_message_templates` and `list_phone_numbers`. These tools return predictable, validated lists of available assets. The agent knows exactly what fields to expect in the resulting array. It also lets you check media using `get_media`, ensuring all returned links are valid URLs.
