Goose users hit 404 errors with Perplexity due to incorrect API endpoint

A technical issue has been identified with Goose's built-in Perplexity provider, causing a 404 error for users attempting to chat. The problem stems from an incorrect URL in the preset, which incorrectly appends '/v1' to the Perplexity API endpoint. This leads requests to a non-existent path, resulting in the 'Resource not found' error. The solution involves manually configuring a custom OpenAI-compatible provider in Goose, specifying the correct base URL without '/v1' and using the existing Perplexity API key. AI

IMPACT Users of Goose and Perplexity may need to reconfigure their API settings to avoid 404 errors when using chat features.
