Research & Search
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.

merit-systems Bundle Web ResearchNeural web search and content extraction using x402-protected APIs. Better than WebSearch for deep research and WebFetch for blocked sites. USE FOR: - Deep web research and investigation - Finding similar pages to a reference URL - Extracting clean text from web pages - Scraping sites that block standard fetchers - Getting direct answers to factual questions - Research requiring multiple sources - Crawling multiple pages from a website TRIGGERS: - "research", "investigate", "deep dive", "find sources" - "similar to", "pages like", "more like this" - "scrape", "extract content from", "get the text from" - "blocked site", "can't access", "paywall" - "what is", "explain", "answer this" - "crawl", "crawl site", "scrape entire site" Use `npx agentcash@latest fetch` for stableenrich.dev endpoints. Prefer Exa for semantic/neural search, Firecrawl for direct scraping.

USE FOR: - Searching Reddit posts and discussions - Getting comments from Reddit threads - Social media monitoring and research TRIGGERS: - "reddit", "subreddit", "reddit discussion" - "what are people saying", "social media", "sentiment" - "trending", "viral", "popular posts" Use `npx agentcash@latest fetch` for Reddit endpoints. Reddit $0.02/call. IMPORTANT: Use exact endpoint paths from the Quick Reference table below.
-
merit-systems Skill Enrich Knowledge GraphEnrich people in a knowledge graph or wiki with contact and social media information — LinkedIn, email, phone, Twitter/X — using premium enrichment APIs via the agentcash CLI. Use this skill when the user wants to enrich contacts, find someone's LinkedIn or email, fill in missing contact info for people in their wiki or knowledge base, or says 'enrich', 'find contact info', 'look up LinkedIn', 'fill in missing info', or anything about augmenting people/contact pages with external data.

warpdotdev-common-skills Skill ResearchDelegate noisy investigation to one or more subagents so the orchestrator's context stays clean, then work from the distilled answer. Use this skill whenever answering a question would require reading many files, long logs, large diffs, or wide codebase surveys — i.e. when producing the answer generates far more noise than the answer itself. Use it for "how does X work", "where is Y used", "what's the root cause of Z", "summarize this PR/log" style questions, and reach for it liberally before reading a pile of files inline.
-
warpdotdev-common-skills Skill Cross CritiqueRun a second round on a contested question by circulating each subagent's independent proposal to the other authors and asking for structured pros and cons, then synthesize. Use this skill whenever you have multiple independent proposals or opinions on a contested decision — architecture tradeoffs, code review disagreements, design choices, competing root-cause theories — and want sharper analysis than you'd produce by synthesizing alone. Pairs naturally with the council and research skills; reach for it liberally whenever proposals diverge.
-
equinor Bundle Fusion Issue SolvingHandles GitHub issue resolution end-to-end for prompts like "solve #123", "lets solve #123", "work on #123", "work on https://github.com/owner/repo/issues/123", or by pasting a direct GitHub issue URL as the request. USE FOR: solve #123, continue work on issue #123, work on https://github.com/owner/repo/issues/123, paste a GitHub issue URL for implementation work. DO NOT USE FOR: issue drafting only, PR review only, or non-implementation research.

-
geeksfino Bundle Undervalued Stock ScreenerScreen and identify undervalued stocks with strong fundamentals using professional equity research methodology. Use when the user asks to find undervalued stocks, screen for cheap or bargain stocks, identify value investing opportunities, perform fundamental stock analysis, find stocks trading below intrinsic value, or requests a stock screener based on financial metrics like P/E ratio, debt-to-equity, free cash flow, or ROIC.

allstarger Bundle Task ObserverObserve Codex task sessions and capture reusable skill-improvement opportunities. Use during substantive multi-step work, tool-using coding or research sessions, post-task feedback, skill creation/update work, and when the user mentions observations, skill logs, task-observer, or "One Skill to Rule Them All". The skill keeps global Codex observation memory active across projects, reads applicable AGENTS.md instructions, and stages proposed skill updates without installing them silently.

sakurabytecore Bundle Context RecoveryRecovers project handoff context from local Codex, Claude Code, Gemini, CodeBuddy, and codexmate-derived sessions. Use when the user asks what happened in prior project/PR/branch/file/error work, needs a handoff brief, wants old decisions or validations recovered, or asks to summarize cross-session project activity with evidence.
-
chris-shelton Bundle Simplify Then ShipUse this skill when the user wants to simplify, implement, redesign, debug, plan, optimize, or de-risk a system, workflow, codebase, architecture, process, research plan, or technical objective. Apply a first-principles execution loop: challenge requirements, delete parts, simplify what remains, accelerate feedback, then automate only stable work. Especially useful when work feels overcomplicated, slow, brittle, approval-heavy, or prematurely automated.
-
sparklingneuronics Bundle CodexRoute a task to OpenAI's Codex CLI (`codex exec`) instead of doing it yourself. Use this skill ANY time the user names codex or types `/codex` — even for routine work Claude could handle, because the user is choosing to delegate. The intent: 'ask codex', 'have codex review/refactor this', 'check/validate with codex', 'see what codex thinks', 'second opinion from codex', 'use codex to create an image', 'continue/resume with codex'. Covers coding (review, analysis, refactoring, file edits, debugging) and non-coding (emails, documents, decisions, research), plus generating or editing images. Keeps a separate Codex thread per topic, so 'continue with codex' resumes the right thread. Do NOT use when the request delegates only to agy, antigravity, or gemini (if a request names both Codex and agy/gemini, both skills run — handle the Codex part here), when no tool is named (a bare 'create an image' or 'review my PR'), or when the user wants Claude itself to do the work. Companion to `/agy`.

-
agent-frontier Bundle WgmAutonomous build skill that turns a rough request into working software through a relentless requirements interview (grill), a persistent plan, and a Ralph-style build loop (analyze → implement → validate → review → record). Use when the user runs /wgm, or asks to build, implement, prototype, or ship a feature or app from rough intent; when a task is ambiguous and needs requirements interrogation before coding; or for multi-step feature work that benefits from a planned, test-validated iterative loop. Supports phase modes grill, analyze, plan, build, and review, with an optional "only" qualifier to run a single phase (e.g. "/wgm analyze only"). Not for trivial one-file edits, pure debugging, or research-only questions.
