name: parallel-ai-search description: Use Parallel's parallel-cli to do live web search, URL extraction (clean markdown), deep research reports, bulk data enrichment (CSV/JSON), FindAll entity discovery, and web monitoring. Use when the user asks to look something up online, needs current sources/citations, provides URLs to read or summarise, requests deep/exhaustive research, wants to enrich a dataset with web-sourced fields, wants a list of entities (companies/people/places), or wants to monitor the web for changes over time. compatibility: Requires parallel-cli installed + authenticated (PARALLEL_API_KEY or parallel-cli login) and internet access. metadata: author: openclaw version: "2.0.0" homepage: "https://docs.parallel.ai/integrations/cli" openclaw: '{"emoji":"🔎","primaryEnv":"PARALLEL_API_KEY","cli":"parallel-cli"}' allowed-tools: Bash(parallel-cli:) Bash(curl:) Bash(pipx:*) Read
This is a single “master” skill that replaces the earlier Node-script-based version of parallel-ai-search.
It routes to the right parallel-cli capability for the task:
parallel-cli search)parallel-cli extract)parallel-cli research ...)parallel-cli enrich ...)parallel-cli findall ...)parallel-cli monitor ...)Choose the smallest / cheapest action that solves the user’s request:
Optional manual prefixes if the user invoked this skill directly:
- search: ...
- extract: ...
- research: ...
- enrich: ...
- findall: ...
- monitor: ...
If a prefix is present, honour it.
Before running any Parallel command, ensure auth works:
parallel-cli auth
If parallel-cli is missing, install it:
curl -fsSL https://parallel.ai/install.sh | bash
If you cannot use the install script, use pipx:
pipx install "parallel-web-tools[cli]"
pipx ensurepath
Then authenticate (choose one):
# Interactive OAuth (opens browser)
parallel-cli login
# Headless / SSH / CI
parallel-cli login --device
# Or environment variable
export PARALLEL_API_KEY="your_api_key"
[Source Title](https://...)./tmp/ and summarise in-chat.Use Search for fast, cost-effective answers with citations.
parallel-cli search "$OBJECTIVE" --mode agentic --max-results 10 --json
Add any of these only when relevant:
- --after-date YYYY-MM-DD (freshness constraint)
- --include-domains a.com b.org (restrict sources)
- --exclude-domains spam.com (block sources)
- one or more -q "keyword query" flags (extra keyword probes)
- -o "/tmp/$SLUG.search.json" (save full JSON to a file)
From the JSON results, extract title, url, and any publish_date / excerpt fields. Answer the user’s question, and cite each claim inline.
Use Extract when you need the actual contents of specific URLs (webpages, PDFs, JS-heavy sites).
parallel-cli extract "$URL" --json
Add when relevant:
- --objective "Focus area" (e.g., pricing, API usage, constraints)
- --full-content (only if the user needs the whole page)
- --no-excerpts (if you only want full content)
- -o "/tmp/$SLUG.extract.json" (save full JSON to a file)
Deep research is slower and may cost more than Search. Use it only when the user explicitly wants depth.
parallel-cli research run "$QUESTION" --processor pro-fast --no-wait --json
Parse run_id (and any monitoring URL) from JSON and tell the user the run started.
Choose a short slug filename (lowercase-hyphen), then:
parallel-cli research poll "$RUN_ID" -o "/tmp/$SLUG" --timeout 540
/tmp/$SLUG.md/tmp/$SLUG.jsonIf polling times out, re-run the same poll command — the run continues server-side.
Use Enrich to add web-sourced columns to structured data.
parallel-cli enrich suggest "$INTENT" --json来源于7w4.net。
Use this when the user knows the goal but not the exact output schema.
For CSV:
parallel-cli enrich run --source-type csv --source "input.csv" --target "/tmp/enriched.csv" --source-columns '[{"name":"company","description":"Company name"}]' --intent "$INTENT" --no-wait --json
For inline JSON rows:
parallel-cli enrich run --data '[{"company":"Google"},{"company":"Apple"}]' --target "/tmp/enriched.csv" --intent "$INTENT" --no-wait --json
Parse taskgroup_id from JSON.
parallel-cli enrich poll "$TASKGROUP_ID" --timeout 540 --json
After completion:
- Tell the user the output file path (the --target you chose).
- Preview a few rows (using file read tools if available) and report row counts.
If poll times out, re-run it — the job continues server-side.
Use FindAll when the user wants you to discover a set of entities (e.g., “AI startups in healthcare”, “roofing companies in Charlotte”, “YC devtools companies”).
parallel-cli findall run "$OBJECTIVE" --generator core --match-limit 25 --no-wait --json
Useful options:
- --dry-run --json to preview schema before spending money
- --exclude '[{"name":"Example Corp","url":"example.com"}]' to avoid known entities
- --generator preview|base|core|pro (core default; pro for hardest queries)
Parse run_id from JSON.
parallel-cli findall poll "$RUN_ID" --json
parallel-cli findall result "$RUN_ID" --json
Respond with: - total entities found - a clean list/table of the best matches (name + URL + key attributes) - any caveats about ambiguous matches
Use Monitor when the user wants ongoing tracking.
Create:
parallel-cli monitor create "$OBJECTIVE" --cadence daily --json
Optional:
- --cadence hourly|daily|weekly|every_two_weeks
- --webhook https://example.com/hook (deliver events externally)
- --output-schema '<JSON schema string>' (structured events)
Manage:
parallel-cli monitor list --json
parallel-cli monitor get "$MONITOR_ID" --json
parallel-cli monitor update "$MONITOR_ID" --cadence weekly --json
parallel-cli monitor delete "$MONITOR_ID"
parallel-cli monitor events "$MONITOR_ID" --json
parallel-cli monitor simulate "$MONITOR_ID" --json
Respond with the monitor id and how to retrieve events (or confirm webhook delivery).
references/command-templates.mdreferences/troubleshooting.md这个Skill质量较好,文档结构清晰、路由规则明确、命令模板详尽,涵盖的功能很全面,风险评估也比较到位。主要不足是部分说明内容可能被截断,安装指南有重复。对于普通用户来说,使用难度不大,上手应该比较友好。
