Author-date a la biblatex have two primary calls: \texcite, e.g.  A (YYYY)
and \parencite, e.g. (A YYYY).  You can also cite just the author or just
the year.

Based on this¹ discussion, I'm not sure CSL supports both within a single
style file.  Perhaps several CSL files could be combined to support this
workflow, e.g. via citeproc-java's command line program.
