research
From the author
Default entry point for any research request — a hybrid router that classifies the question deterministically and either delegates to a specialist research skill (pulse for trends/sentiment, grants for NIH funding, litreview for academic literature, syllabus for course reading, patent for prior-art + IP landscape, dossier for entity research, deepread for evidence-first reading of supplied documents) or runs its own plan-decompose-multi-source-search-synthesize-cite fallback workflow when no specialist matches. Always surfaces the routing decision so users can override. Use when the user makes any research request that doesn't obviously match a more-specific specialist skill (e.g., "research [topic]", "look into [topic]", "what do we know about [topic]", "investigate [topic]", "find me information on [topic]", "do some research on [topic]", "I need to understand [topic]"). Output is a markdown briefing (default) or .docx document (on request) with full citations and an audit log.

- 00-academic-routeragentscope-ai/OpenJudgeUse when the user wants help with academic papers or citations but it's unclear which specific workflow fits — reviewing a paper, checking a BibTeX file for fake references, or benchmarking multiple LLMs on reference-recommendation accuracy. Also use when the user mentions paper review, peer review, BibTeX verification, citation checking, reference hallucination, or academic literature accuracy and hasn't specified which of those three tasks they mean. This skill is the entry router for the academic-eval suite: it asks one diagnostic question then routes to the right sub-skill.Science★ 888
- topic-researchnaveedharri/benai-skillsResearch any topic end to end and get back a fact-checked, branded HTML report plus an agent-readable markdown brief. Use when the user wants to research a topic, do a deep dive, build a research report or briefing, gather evidence before writing a piece of content, understand 'what does the research say / what are people saying about X', or study a subject across papers, forums, YouTube, and vendor/web sources. Fans out parallel sub-agents (one per source type), verifies every hard claim with the fact-checker, synthesizes one sourced markdown brief, renders it as a branded report, and deploys it live. Connector-adaptive: uses Firecrawl, Apify, a scholarly/PubMed MCP, YouTube/vidIQ, and Reddit where available, and falls back to web search, web fetch, and browser-use where they are not. Trigger on 'research this topic', 'topic research', 'do a deep dive on', 'build me a research report', 'what does the evidence say about', or 'research X before I write about it'.Science★ 73
- research-lookupK-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skillsCompiles current scholarly evidence for a scientific manuscript or research brief when the user explicitly asks to gather literature, references, background evidence, competing findings, or a manuscript research packet. Uses Parallel Search by default, Parallel Extract for source retrieval, Parallel Research for explicitly deep/exhaustive work, optional explicit Parallel Chat, and optional Perplexity only when requested or allowed as a failure fallback.Science★ 54.4K
- deep-researchcoreyhaines31/makerskillsWhen you want multi-source, multi-step research on a topic — competitor research before a sales call, market research for a new business idea, positioning angles, due diligence on a partnership or podcast guest, tech decision research (which DB, which auth), or any "I need to actually understand X." Combines web search, URL fetch, agent-browser, last30days (Reddit/X/YouTube/HN/web recency), memory, and Notion. Outputs a structured brief with citations, contradictions, gaps, and recommended next steps. Archives every research run to ~/.config/makerskills/deep-research/archive/ so past work is searchable. Triggers on "/deep-research," "research X," "investigate X," "do a deep dive on X," "look into X," "what's actually happening with X," "due diligence on X," "validate this market." Differs from a one-shot web search: this is multi-pass with verification. Not for standing monitoring (radar) or pulling one post or video (social-fetch, watch-video).Science★ 871
- autoresearchAgriciDaniel/claude-obsidianRun a bounded, source-grounded research loop, draft a cited dossier, and optionally propose a separately reviewed canonical vault merge. Use when the user wants autonomous or deep research that may access the public web. Triggers: /autoresearch, autoresearch, research this topic, deep dive into, investigate, find everything about, research and file, go research, build a wiki on.Science★ 15.8K
- lead-researchtamdogood/builder-essential-skillsProvider-neutral deep-research orchestration for brainstorming, technology choices, comparisons, and state-of-the-art surveys. The Research Lead makes scope and decision calls while native subagents scout, search, verify, synthesize, audit, write, and commit every research artifact.Science★ 225
