For example i want to parse contact forms, how do i do that? Do i need to create a custom parser using commands, or there is easier way to do that?

There's already some templates and plugins to start and new useful features added frequently! Plus you can define your own like you said. I have a Contact form project and it's similar to what Sven suggested.
I want to scrape contact forms also
Also maybe creating a must have filter html-source for and ID of a form like wpcf7.
Then import some niche keywords and related search engines.
If done above for this project you'd get domain.{tld}/contact URL's and also be checking for the wordpress contact form 7 id wpcf7 in the page source. You'd probably have to find these identifiers yourself for specific forms. Inspect page source and find form then an ID.
Parse sublink 1 level should grab the contact url if its there on page 1 and restricting to domain should only parse url from target domain finding the contact url.
It takes a bit to get used to because its doing it all these things in one project and if your used to ScrapeBox this would be a mulitpart workflow. I think this is what makes Scrape Genie a great tool! Theres no limit on projects and can get vary granular with what your scraping, exporting, sending etc
When you make a filter list also be aware of = checking AND or OR filter selection.
Really could write a book on this topic. But maybe this is some help?
This will create content must have filter for "contact" in URL.
Be aware of the "List Type" as if you select AND then you'll get less results as they must match All the filters. You can add as many filters as you want. Your own or from templates.
This is looking for a form id in the html source. Best to start small and slectively craft it as you go. IMO
Then you have a template of your own to reuse just pumping out the data you need constantly from as many projects as you wish all with there own end goals.
Scrape Genie - It's quite complex, feature rich, fully automated and very nice tool
Thanks for the help by the way
I just double checked I had an unrelated parser for X ids in the project so I must been playing around.
But if sven makes template then guess we can just use that
copied all the settings above, no parser set up
I can see the scrape pages in the queue and then when I parse I can see some contact form URLS in the queue, but nothing goes in the results tab
So then those are your contact URL's it found and its working? Unless you want to do something further like parse something else and or send somewhere I don't think you will see more as your just scraping for contat forms here. I think maybe the confusion is its doing all the steps all in one project.
Maybe you could add step to auto export to a file to be used elsewhere?
Or am I missing something?
