📄 Description

Summary

Updates the Deep Agents CLI providers table to surface PERPLEXITY_API_KEY as the canonical Perplexity environment variable, with PPLX_API_KEY listed as a fallback for backwards compatibility.

This aligns the published docs page (https://docs.langchain.com/oss/python/deepagents/cli/providers) with the upstream code change in langchain-ai/deepagents#3061, which switches the canonical entry in PROVIDER_API_KEY_ENV from PPLX_API_KEY to PERPLEXITY_API_KEY while preserving PPLX_API_KEY as a fallback. Without this docs change, the providers table will be inconsistent with the shipped CLI behavior the moment #3061 merges.

PERPLEXITY_API_KEY is the canonical name per the official Perplexity API docs; PPLX_API_KEY remains supported so existing users are not broken.

This is a follow-up to two recently merged Perplexity docs PRs in this repo: #3798 (Perplexity Search retriever/tool) and #3806 (PerplexityEmbeddings).

Testing

  • Single-line edit to src/oss/deepagents/cli/providers.mdx; rendered table cell now reads `PERPLEXITY_API_KEY` (or `PPLX_API_KEY`).
  • No other rows or files touched.
