parallel-monitor
Continuously track the web for changes on a recurring cadence. Use when the user asks to 'monitor', 'track changes to', 'watch', or 'alert me when' something on the web changes — e.g., 'Track price changes for iPhone 16', 'Alert me when Tesla files a new 8-K', 'Monitor competitor pricing pages weekly'. Also use to list, inspect, update, or stop existing monitors, including requests to delete them.
Install
With your agent
Install OMGSkills skill "parallel-web/parallel-agent-skills:skills/parallel-monitor" into this agent's normal skills directory: call the OMGSkills MCP get_install_plan tool for your agent and run the script it returns (it installs only the pinned commit and verifies SKILL.md), and stop if MCP or the pin is unavailable. Do not overwrite or change existing skills without asking me.
Manual command
git clone https://github.com/parallel-web/parallel-agent-skills /tmp/parallel-agent-skills && ln -s /tmp/parallel-agent-skills/skills/parallel-monitor ~/.claude/skills/parallel-monitorFrom README
Web Monitor Action: $ARGUMENTS Requires parallel-cli ≥ 0.4.0 for the GA Monitor commands. If a Monitor command or option is missing, tell the user to update through their method (see ), then retry. What this skill does Monitors are long-running, server-side jobs that re-check the web on a cadence and emit events when something changes. Unlike search/research/findall (one-shot lookups), monitors persist until cancelled and can optionally deliver detected events through a webhook. Creation does not establish an ongoing agent notification service: explain how to read server-side events or use the configured webhook, without promising chat or email alerts. The default type is eventstream, with frequency 1d and server processor lite. A snapshot monitor requires an existing Task run ID. Create or modify only the resource requested by the user; do not create a monitor just to demonstrate the skill.
