Enterprise Deployment Blueprint for Perplexity Ask MCP Server

Overview

We'd like to create a standardized enterprise deployment blueprint for Perplexity Ask MCP Server to help increase adoption among enterprise users. This blueprint would be completely free, open-source, and require minimal involvement from the project maintainers.

What We're Offering

wirtual.dev is creating standardized deployment blueprints for leading open-source AI applications. We'd like to create one for Perplexity Ask MCP Server that would:

• Package Perplexity Ask MCP Server as a standardized blueprint for one-click enterprise deployment
• Add enterprise-grade security controls and governance for Sonar API credentials
• Integrate with a shared context layer for interoperability with other AI applications
• Provide a secure environment for customization and extension

Value to Perplexity Ask MCP Server

This blueprint would:

1. Increase enterprise adoption by removing deployment complexity barriers
2. Enhance security posture for sensitive Sonar API key management in corporate environments
3. Streamline deployment across multiple environments with proper credential handling
4. Enable governance and compliance for web search activities performed by AI agents
5. Simplify integration with existing enterprise knowledge management systems

What We Need From You

• Permission to create this open-source blueprint for Perplexity Ask MCP Server
• Optional: Any guidance on deployment best practices not already in documentation
• Optional: Review of the blueprint when complete (though not required)

Important Assurances

• The blueprint will be completely open-source under the same MIT license
• There is no vendor lock-in - users can deploy without our platform if desired
• The project remains independent - this is simply an additional deployment option
• No changes to the core codebase are needed

Project Alignment and Contribution Process

We're reaching out before beginning work to ensure our blueprint aligns with your project's vision and contribution standards. This approach helps us:

1. Confirm the blueprint would be welcomed by the project maintainers
2. Understand any specific requirements or preferences you might have
3. Establish clear expectations about the review and merging process
4. Ensure we're not duplicating efforts already underway

Next Steps

If you're open to this collaboration, we'd appreciate:

1. Confirmation that this type of contribution would be welcomed
2. Any specific guidance on how you'd prefer we submit the final work (PR process, review expectations, etc.)
3. Indication of any aspects of the proposal that need adjustment to better align with your project

We're happy to answer any questions or address any concerns you might have before proceeding.

Thank you for considering our proposal!
