Browsing agent from Perplexity

# Perplexity Computer

In short

Perplexity Computer is Perplexity's browsing agent. Perplexity Computer has no robots.txt token, so robots.txt cannot address it and the crawl cannot measure a block rate. The operator publishes nothing a site can check. Verisoul reports it works in a cloud browser with no declared identity and now also inside users' own Chrome tabs.

Operator

## Allow and refuse lines

This agent has no robots.txt token, so there are no lines to copy. Without a token, a published list or a signature, a site owner cannot tell it from an ordinary visitor by request alone.

Refusing or allowing in robots.txt states a preference. For this row the operator or its documentation says robots.txt may not govern the fetch, so enforcement belongs in your WAF.
