## What it does

The skill runs bulk enrichment through `parallel-cli`. You hand it a table or a list of entities plus the fields you want, and it pulls those fields from the web. CSV input needs its source columns declared; inline input takes an array of objects. Results land in JSON, and CSV conversion happens locally while keeping every original row.

Runs are asynchronous. The command with `--no-wait` returns a `taskgroup_id` and a monitoring URL, and progress is tracked by polling separately. Enrichment can take several minutes depending on row and field counts. If a poll is interrupted, check the group state with `enrich status` instead of creating a new group.

You need `parallel-cli` installed and internet access. To carry context from an earlier task, pass `--previous-interaction-id`, though that flag is unavailable on Zero Data Retention accounts, so the context has to go into the request itself. When the CLI is missing, `/parallel:parallel-cli-setup` handles install and authentication.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add parallel-web/parallel-agent-skills --skill parallel-data-enrichment -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/parallel-data-enrichment/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/parallel-data-enrichment/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add parallel-web/parallel-agent-skills --skill parallel-data-enrichment -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/parallel-data-enrichment/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add parallel-web/parallel-agent-skills --skill parallel-data-enrichment -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/parallel-data-enrichment/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install parallel-web/parallel-agent-skills parallel-data-enrichment
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/parallel-data-enrichment/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add parallel-web/parallel-agent-skills --skill parallel-data-enrichment -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/parallel-web/parallel-agent-skills --path skills/parallel-data-enrichment
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/parallel-data-enrichment/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add parallel-web/parallel-agent-skills --skill parallel-data-enrichment -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/parallel-web/parallel-agent-skills/tree/HEAD/skills/parallel-data-enrichment/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- append CEO names and founding years to a company list
- pull contact details for a batch of people from a CSV
- add funding data to a set of startups
- continue a previous research task with its context intact
- turn enrichment output into CSV without dropping original rows

## Example prompts
- enrich `input.csv` with CEO name and founding year columns
- run these companies through: CEO, latest funding round, contact email
- continue the earlier task with `--previous-interaction-id` and add a revenue field

# Data Enrichment

Enrich: $ARGUMENTS

## Before starting

Inform the user that enrichment may take several minutes depending on the number of rows and fields requested.

## Optional: Suggest output columns

If the user gave a vague intent ("enrich these companies with useful info") and you're not sure what columns to add, ask the API for a suggestion before kicking off the run:

```bash
parallel-cli enrich suggest "Find CEO and recent funding info" --json
```

The response is an envelope: `{title, processor, enriched_columns, warnings}`. Extract just the **`enriched_columns` array** (not the whole envelope) and pass it as the value of `--enriched-columns` on `enrich run`, **in place of `--intent`**. These flags are alternative ways to specify what to enrich. If `suggest` returned a `processor`, pass it explicitly via `--processor` on the `run` call. Skip this section if the user already specified the fields they want.

> `enrich suggest` requires `parallel-cli` ≥ 0.3.0. If only that command is missing, skip the optional suggestion step and use `--intent` in step 1. Suggest an installation-specific upgrade from Setup. Do not classify authentication, API or invalid-input failures as an older CLI. An intent-based run itself requests a suggestion; explicit columns default to `core-fast`, while intent can select another processor unless `--processor` overrides it.

## Step 1: Start the enrichment

Use ONE of these command patterns (substitute user's actual data):

For inline data:

```bash
parallel-cli enrich run --data '[{"company": "Google"}, {"company": "Microsoft"}]' --intent "CEO name and founding year" --target "output.csv" --no-wait --json
```

For CSV file:

```bash
parallel-cli enrich run --source-type csv --source "input.csv" --target "output.csv" --source-columns '[{"name": "company", "description": "Company name"}]' --intent "CEO name and founding year" --no-wait --json
```
