URL Extraction

Extract content from: $ARGUMENTS

Command

Choose a short, descriptive filename based on the URL or content (e.g., vespa-docs, react-hooks-api). Use lowercase with hyphens, no spaces.

parallel-cli extract "$ARGUMENTS" --json -o "/tmp/$FILENAME.md"

Options if needed:

• --objective "focus area" to focus on specific content

Response format

Return content as:

Page Title

Then the extracted content verbatim, with these rules:

• Keep content verbatim - do not paraphrase or summarize
• Parse lists exhaustively - extract EVERY numbered/bulleted item
• Strip only obvious noise: nav menus, footers, ads
• Preserve all facts, names, numbers, dates, quotes

After the response, mention the output file path (/tmp/$FILENAME.md) so the user knows it's available for follow-up questions.

Setup

If parallel-cli is not found, install and authenticate:

curl -fsSL https://parallel.ai/install.sh | bash

If unable to install that way, install via pipx instead:

pipx install "parallel-web-tools[cli]"
pipx ensurepath

Then authenticate:

parallel-cli login

Or set an API key: export PARALLEL_API_KEY="your-key"
