Perplexity has open-sourced Bumblebee, an internal security tool it uses to protect the developer systems behind its search product, Comet, and Computer. Bumblebee is a read-only inventory collector for macOS and Linux developer endpoints. It scans npm, PyPI, Go modules, MCP configs, editor extensions, and browser extensions — without invoking any package manager or running any code.
