What it does
Use Parallel CLI for web search, URL extraction, deep research, structured data enrichment, entity discovery, and recurring web monitoring. Best for requests that explicitly need current web evidence, academic-source discovery, repeated entity lookups, exhaustive reports, or ongoing change tracking.
Parallel Web Toolkit
A unified skill for Parallel's web-intelligence workflows. For scientific topics, prefer primary literature and authoritative institutional sources.
Routing, pick the right capability
Read the user's request and then open the corresponding reference file before running a command.
| User wants to... | Capability | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Look something up, research a topic, find current info | Web Search | references/web-search.md |
| Fetch content from a specific URL (webpage, article, PDF) | Web Extract | references/web-extract.md |
| Add web-sourced fields to a list of companies/people/products | Data Enrichment | references/data-enrichment.md |
| Get an exhaustive, multi-source report (user says "deep research", "exhaustive", "comprehensive") | Deep Research | references/deep-research.md |
| Discover a set of entities matching natural-language criteria | FindAll | references/findall.md |
| Track web changes on a recurring schedule | Monitor | references/monitor.md |
| Install or authenticate parallel-cli | Setup | Below |
| Check or retrieve an asynchronous result | Status and polling | Below and the capability reference |
Decision guide
- Web Search is the normal choice for a lookup or bounded research question.
- Web Extract is for a known public URL, including PDFs and JavaScript-rendered pages.
- Data Enrichment applies the same requested fields to user-supplied rows. Do not loop over Web Search for this.
- FindAll discovers the entities themselves. Use enrichment when the entities are already supplied.
- Deep Research is only for explicitly exhaustive or comprehensive requests because it is slower and more expensive.
- Monitor creates persistent external state and is only for explicitly recurring tracking. A one-time check belongs in Web Search or Web Extract.
- If
parallel-cliis not found when running any command, follow the Setup section below.
