[Tex/LaTex] How to cite secondary source (\textcite{primarysource}\parencite[cited in][]{secondarysource})

biblatexcitingcross-referencing

I want to cite secondary source, is the a way to do in latex?

Primary Source: Ennis, 1996
Secondary Source: Robinson, 2011

I want the format as:

Ennis (1996, cited in Robinson, 2011)  -> Direct citation
(Ennis, 1996, cited in Robinson, 2011)  -> Indirect Citation

I tried:

\textcite{primarysource}\parencite[cited in][]{secondarysource}

Output:

You can define macros that take two citation keys as arguments and print the citations as you need them. Minimal example (without most part of your code which isn't at all relevant for the question):

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[backend=biber,
style=authoryear-comp]{biblatex}

\DeclareCiteCommand{\secondaryciteauthor}{}{\printtext[bibhyperref]{\printnames{labelname}}}{}{}
\DeclareCiteCommand{\secondaryciteyear}{}{\bibhyperref{\printdate}}{\multicitedelim}{}
\newcommand{\secondarycitedirect}[2]{\secondaryciteauthor{#1} (\secondaryciteyear{#1}, cited in \secondaryciteauthor{#2}, \secondaryciteyear{#2})}
\newcommand{\secondaryciteindirect}[2]{(\secondaryciteauthor{#1}, \secondaryciteyear{#1}, cited in \secondaryciteauthor{#2}, \secondaryciteyear{#2})}

\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents*}{\jobname.bib}
@article{primarysource,
   title={primary source},
   author={Ennis, Peter},
   journal={Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics society Annual Meeting},
   volume={52},
   number={21},
   pages={1747--1750},
   year={1996},
   organization={Sage Publications Sage CA: Los Angeles, CA},
   url= "https://doi.org/10.1177/154193120805202112",
 }


@article{secondarysource,
  title={Teaching logic and teaching critical thinking: revisiting McPeck},
  author={Robinson, Susan Rebecca},
  journal={Higher Education Research and Development},
  volume={30},
  number={3},
  pages={275--287},
  year={2011},
  publisher={Taylor \& Francis}
}
\end{filecontents*}

\addbibresource{\jobname.bib}

\begin{document}

\secondarycitedirect{primarysource}{secondarysource}

\secondaryciteindirect{primarysource}{secondarysource}

\printbibliography
\end{document}

Edit: I added custom \secondaryciteauthor and \secondaryciteyear macros to be independent of changes you made for other citing macros. You might need to adjust those to more closely match what you use in other citing cases.

Postscript

As domwass notes, if you change your version of biblatex.bst in this way, you have to be aware that upgrades might break Biblatex if you use a local fork based on an older version. While most revisions don't introduce incompatible changes to biblatex.bst (there were no changes from 0.9e to 1.3 that would have caused problems, I think), the last revision, 1.4, introduced a very big change in the way biblatex.bst represented information in .bib files that certainly would have required creating a new patched file.

[Tex/LaTex] biblatex: uppercase in \parencite, but not in \textcite

I think the only way is the redefinition of the cite command. In the example below I defined a new macro named uppercite which formats the name via the redefinition of \mkbibnamelast:

\DeclareCiteCommand{\parencite}[\mkbibparens]
  {\usebibmacro{prenote}}
  {\usebibmacro{citeindex}%
  \usebibmacro{uppercite}}
  {\multicitedelim}
  {\usebibmacro{postnote}}

\newbibmacro*{uppercite}{%
  \iffieldundef{shorthand}
    {\ifthenelse{\ifnameundef{labelname}\OR\iffieldundef{labelyear}}
       {\usebibmacro{cite:label}%
        \setunit{\addspace}}
       {\def\mkbibnamelast##1{\MakeUppercase{##1}}\printnames{labelname}%
        \setunit{\nameyeardelim}}%
     \usebibmacro{cite:labelyear+extrayear}}
    {\usebibmacro{cite:shorthand}}}

The complete MWE is:

\RequirePackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents*}{\jobname.bib}
@book{CARNAP1935,
