Parallel Web Intelligence Toolkit
Routes requests to Parallel CLI for web search, URL extraction, deep research, data enrichment, entity discovery, and scheduled monitoring.
What it does
A single routing skill that picks the right parallel-cli capability for the request:
- Web Search — everyday lookups and bounded research questions
- Web Extract — pull content from a known URL, including PDFs and JS-rendered pages
- Data Enrichment — add web-sourced fields to a supplied list of companies, people, or products
- Deep Research — exhaustive multi-source reports, reserved for explicitly comprehensive asks
- FindAll — discover the entity set itself from natural-language criteria
- Monitor — recurring change tracking with persistent external state
For technical or scientific queries it prioritizes peer-reviewed papers, preprints (arXiv, bioRxiv, medRxiv), and institutional sources (NIH, WHO, NASA, NIST) over blogs and news, citing author, year, and DOI. Safety guidance is unusually strong: web results are treated as untrusted data, user text is passed as quoted args or stdin, JSON flags are serialized rather than concatenated, task IDs must match CLI prefixes (trun_, tgrp_, findall_, mon_), the API key is never printed, and polling is capped at three rounds.
Who it's for
- Analysts and researchers who need current, citable web evidence
- Scientists and grad students who want literature-first sourcing with DOIs
- Sales/data teams enriching lead or company lists at scale
- Teams that must watch competitor pages or regulatory docs on a schedule
Examples
- "Summarize solid-state battery advances since 2024, favor peer-reviewed work" → Web Search with academic-source priority and DOI links.
- "Fill in latest funding round, HQ, and headcount for the 200 startups in this CSV" → one Data Enrichment batch instead of a search loop.
- "Tell me weekly when this competitor's pricing page changes" → a Monitor task; a one-off check falls back to Web Extract.

Install in Claude Code
Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code
Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart. Copy the skills/parallel-web folder from the GitHub repo K-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skills into my ~/.claude/skills/parallel-web/. When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.
Install with a command instead
git clone https://github.com/K-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skills.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r scientific-agent-skills/skills/parallel-web ~/.claude/skills/⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/K-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skills.git - Copy the skill into place:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r scientific-agent-skills/skills/parallel-web ~/.claude/skills/ - Confirm the
references/files (web-search.md, deep-research.md, monitor.md, etc.) came along — the skill depends on them. - Install the CLI with uv:
uv tool install "parallel-web-tools[cli]==0.7.1"(install uv first if needed). - Verify with
parallel-cli --version; if not found, add~/.local/binto your PATH. - Get an API key at https://platform.parallel.ai, then run
parallel-cli login(useparallel-cli login --deviceon headless/CI/SSH), or exportPARALLEL_API_KEY. - Check credentials with
parallel-cli auth. - Restart Claude Code and try: "use the parallel-web skill to find the latest research on ...".
