Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
High-accuracy web search built for AI agents. Returns ranked results with intelligent excerpts optimized for LLM consumption.
Trigger this skill when the user asks for: "search the web", "web search", "look up", "find online" "current news about...", "latest updates on..." "research [topic]", "what's happening with..." Fact-checking with citations needed Domain-specific searches (e.g., "search GitHub for...", "find on Reddit...")

Basic search: parallel-cli search "When was the United Nations founded?" --json --max-results 5 With keyword filters: parallel-cli search "Latest developments in quantum computing" \ -q "quantum" -q "computing" -q "2026" \ --json --max-results 10 Domain-scoped search: parallel-cli search "React hooks best practices" \ --include-domains react.dev --include-domains github.com \ --json --max-results 5 Recent news only: parallel-cli search "AI regulation news" \ --after-date 2026-01-01 \ --json --max-results 10
Write 1-3 sentences describing: The real task context (why you need the info) Freshness constraints ("prefer 2026+", "latest docs") Preferred sources ("official docs", "news sites")
Add 3-8 keyword queries including: Specific terms, version numbers, error strings Common synonyms Date terms if relevant ("2026", "Jan 2026")
Returns structured JSON with: search_id โ unique identifier results[] โ array of results: url โ source URL title โ page title excerpts[] โ relevant text excerpts publish_date โ when available
When turning results into a user-facing answer: Prefer official/primary sources when possible Quote or paraphrase only the relevant extracted text Include URL + publish_date for transparency If results disagree, present both and note the discrepancy
For long conversations, save results and use sessions_spawn: parallel-cli search "<query>" --json -o /tmp/search-<topic>.json Then spawn a sub-agent: { "tool": "sessions_spawn", "task": "Read /tmp/search-<topic>.json and synthesize a summary with sources.", "label": "search-summary" }
