What are research & search agent skills?
Research agent skills teach AI agents to gather and synthesize information properly: literature reviews, competitive analysis, web research with citations, and structured summaries. Each SKILL.md encodes a method, not just a prompt, so results stay consistent across runs.
A skill is a plain SKILL.md file — YAML frontmatter naming the skill and describing when to use it, followed by markdown instructions the agent loads only when a task matches. The format is the one Anthropic documents for Agent Skills, and it is read unchanged by Cursor and OpenAI Codex, among 60+ agents. Every research & search skill listed here passes a safety review before it becomes publicly visible; the verdict and any network or filesystem capabilities it declares are shown on its page.
How to install a research & search agent skill
- Pick a skill. Choose a Research & Search skill from this page and open it to read its SKILL.md and safety review before installing.
- Run the install command. Run npx skillmds@latest add <owner>/<name> in your project. The CLI detects every agent installed on the machine and writes the skill into each one's skills directory.
- Restart your agent. Restart Claude Code, Cursor or Codex so it picks up the new skills directory. The agent then loads the skill on demand whenever a task matches its description.
Prefer to do it by hand? Every skill page has a copyable SKILL.md and a markdown twin at /skills/<owner>/<name>.md.
