SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Parallel CLI enables agent-native web search, extraction, deep research, enrichment, and monitoring workflows via a vendor CLI, providing structured, repeatable outcomes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • JSON output via --json to integrate results into pipelines.
  • Non-interactive command execution for automation and scripting.
  • Async long-running jobs with --no-wait, status, and poll to manage extended tasks.
  • Context chaining with --previous-interaction-id to maintain conversation history across steps.
  • Combined capabilities: search, extract, research, enrich, findall, and monitor for end-to-end workflows.

Quick Start

Install parallel-cli and run a task with --json to obtain structured results.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate web search and extraction for multi-step research workflows?

Automate web search and extraction by using non-interactive command execution with JSON output, enabling structured results for complex multi-step research workflows. Context chaining maintains conversation history across steps.

What is the best way to handle long-running async web monitoring jobs?

Handle long-running async web monitoring jobs by using --no-wait, status, and poll flags to manage extended tasks without blocking execution. This ensures non-interactive monitoring of web resources.

Can I chain context across multiple steps in a deep research task?

Chain context across multiple steps in a deep research task by using the --previous-interaction-id flag. This maintains conversation history and ensures structured outputs across search, extraction, and monitoring.

How do I integrate web discovery results into data pipelines?

Integrate web discovery results into data pipelines by running commands with the --json flag. This forces structured JSON output, enabling seamless ingestion of search and enrichment data into downstream automation.

Does parallel-cli support entity discovery and data enrichment?

Parallel-cli supports entity discovery and data enrichment through combined capabilities including search, extract, research, enrich, findall, and monitor. These provide end-to-end workflows for complex information-gathering tasks.

When should I use asynchronous execution for web research?

Use asynchronous execution for web research when handling complex information-gathering tasks requiring multi-step workflows. Async job support with status and poll flags manages extended tasks without blocking non-interactive automation.
