parallel-web
All-in-one web toolkit powered by parallel-cli, with a strong emphasis on academic and scientific sources. Use this skill whenever the user needs to search the web, fetch/extract URL content, enrich data with web-sourced fields, or run deep research reports. Covers: web search (fast lookups, research, current info — prioritizing peer-reviewed papers, preprints, and scholarly databases), URL extraction (fetching pages, articles, academic PDFs), bulk data enrichment (adding fields to CSV/lists from the web), and deep research (exhaustive multi-source reports grounded in academic literature).

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill parallel-web-k-dense-ai-scientific-agent-ski --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
