Frequently Asked Questions about research-lookup

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I get cited results for an academic literature search?▼

Academic literature search returns cited results by routing your query to Perplexity sonar-pro-search, which delivers a comprehensive report with source metadata and inline citations for verification.

Do I need an API key to perform research lookups?▼

Research lookups require at least one API key to function. You must provide either a PARALLEL_API_KEY or an OPENROUTER_API_KEY to authenticate backend access and retrieve results.

How does query routing work for general vs academic research?▼

Query routing for general versus academic research works by automatically evaluating your input and directing broad questions to the Parallel Chat API while sending scholarly literature to Perplexity sonar-pro-search.

Can I process batch queries for a multi-topic literature review?▼

Batch queries for a multi-topic literature review are supported. The tool processes multiple research questions across scientific domains, returning structured results with sources for each query.

What's the best way to verify sources from a research query?▼

Verifying sources from a research query is best done using the extracted citation metadata. The tool outputs structured results with inline citations and source metadata for direct verification.
