Research Information Lookup
Overview
This skill provides real-time research information lookup with intelligent backend routing:
- parallel-cli search (parallel-web skill): Primary and default backend for all research queries. Fast, cost-effective web search with academic source prioritization. Uses
parallel-cli searchwith--include-domainsfor scholarly sources. - Parallel Chat API (
coremodel): Secondary backend for complex, multi-source deep research requiring extended synthesis (60s-5min latency). Use only when explicitly needed. - Perplexity sonar-pro-search (via OpenRouter): Used only for academic-specific paper searches where scholarly database access is critical.
The skill automatically detects query type and routes to the optimal backend.
