Parallel Web Search
DEFAULT for all research and web queries. Use for any lookup, research, investigation, or question needing current info. Fast and cost-effective. Only use parallel-deep-research if user explicitly requests 'deep' or 'exhaustive' research.
Parallel Monitor
Continuously track the web for changes on a recurring cadence. Use when the user asks to 'monitor', 'track changes to', 'watch', or 'alert me when' something on the web changes — e.g., 'Track price changes for iPhone 16', 'Alert me when Tesla files a new 8-K', 'Monitor competitor pricing pages weekly'. Also use to list, inspect, update, or delete existing monitors.
Parallel Deep Research
ONLY use when user explicitly says 'deep research', 'exhaustive', 'comprehensive report', or 'thorough investigation'. Slower and more expensive than parallel-web-search. For normal research/lookup requests, use parallel-web-search instead. Supports multi-turn: pass --previous-interaction-id from a prior research or enrichment to continue with context.
Parallel Cli Setup
Set up and maintain the Parallel CLI (install, auth, balance, skills install)
Parallel Data Enrichment
Bulk data enrichment. Adds web-sourced fields (CEO names, funding, contact info) to lists of companies, people, or products. Use for enriching CSV files or inline data. Supports multi-turn: pass --previous-interaction-id from a prior research task to carry context forward.
Parallel Findall
Discover entities (companies, people, products, etc.) matching a natural-language description. Use when the user asks to 'find all X' or 'list every Y that…' — e.g., 'Find AI startups that raised Series A in 2026', 'List roofing companies in Charlotte NC', 'Show me YC W24 dev tools companies'. Different from web-search (which returns webpages) and deep-research (which returns a narrative report).…

Parallel Web Extract
URL content extraction. Use for fetching any URL - webpages, articles, PDFs, JavaScript-heavy sites. Token-efficient: runs in forked context. Prefer over built-in WebFetch.
