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.
-
npbuilds Bundle BiostatisticsBiostatistics methods for clinical trials, epidemiology, and life sciences research. Reference when designing clinical trials, performing survival analysis, evaluating diagnostic tests, computing epidemiological measures, conducting meta-analyses, handling multiplicity in clinical endpoints, or navigating FDA/EMA regulatory statistical requirements. Use when the data involves patient outcomes, censored time-to-event data, or regulatory submissions.
-
npbuilds Bundle Paradigm AnalystIdentify the operating paradigm, research programme, and foundational assumptions of a field, theory, or research tradition using Kuhn, Lakatos, and Popper frameworks. Reference when the user needs to understand what a field takes for granted, whether a field is in normal science or crisis, or how competing research programmes compare.
-
npbuilds Bundle Methodology CriticEvaluate study design, identify methodological weaknesses, and assess internal and external validity. Use when the user needs to judge whether a study's methods justify its conclusions, understand the limitations of a research approach, compare methodological strengths of different studies, or assess whether research findings are likely to replicate.
-
npbuilds Bundle Signal ScannerMeasure scientific momentum for an emerging target or modality by computing the second derivative (acceleration) of PubMed and bioRxiv/medRxiv volume, citation-burst detection on landmark papers, and author-affiliation concentration to subtract single-lab artifacts, cross-checked against patent velocity, NIH grant flows, and the first-IND translation event. Activate when asking whether a target/modality is inflecting before consensus, how early you are, or when separating a genuine emerging field from review-driven or single-lab hype.

ffsshhttiikk Skill UXUser experience design and research
-
mittuled Bundle User ResearcherThis skill conducts user research interviews and synthesises findings into actionable product insights. Use when the team needs first-hand understanding of user behaviour, pain points, or unmet needs before making product decisions. Also consider when quantitative data shows a trend but the team lacks qualitative context to explain it. Suggest when a feature is being designed based on internal assumptions rather than validated user evidence.
-
mittuled Bundle Session Analysis UxrThis skill analyses user session recordings and usability tests to identify research-backed design insights. Use when asked to review session recordings, analyse usability test videos, or extract patterns from user sessions. Also consider when the team has session recordings piling up without analysis. Suggest when the user has usability test data that has not been systematically reviewed.
-
mittuled Bundle User Researcher UxrThis skill conducts in-depth user research sessions and synthesises findings. Use when asked to run user interviews, conduct contextual inquiries, or facilitate research sessions. Also consider when design decisions need direct user evidence but no recent research exists. Suggest when the user is about to redesign a flow without talking to users first.
-
mittuled Bundle UX Flow Designer UxrThis skill designs user flows informed by research findings. Use when asked to create user flows, map interaction paths, or design task flows for a feature. Also consider when a product has user stories but no visualised flow showing how users move through the experience. Suggest when the user is about to build UI screens without a documented flow connecting them.
-
npbuilds Bundle The LoomMaster AI-native product orchestrator. Cultivates living intelligence products by weaving capabilities from every domain (design, data science, investing, writing, game theory, worldbuilding, research, infrastructure) into coherent capability surfaces. Use when envisioning what an intelligence system should become, designing conditions for product emergence, deciding which capabilities to surface to the world, evolving products through use, or synthesizing the meta-pattern across the full product portfolio. Activates when the question is "what should this intelligence become, and how do we let it grow?"
-
npbuilds Bundle SpelunkerOrchestrate deep research across any topic with epistemic rigor. Use when the user needs to investigate a question, verify claims, research a topic in depth, fact-check information, understand a complex subject, or find the best approach to an open-ended problem. Routes investigative questions to claim decomposition and source triangulation, and generative questions ("what's the best X?", "how should we design X?") to the agentic-researcher for evolutionary candidate evaluation. Applies adversarial self-checking and confidence-tagged findings with explicit gaps.
-
npbuilds Bundle EmptorOrchestrates rigorous consumer purchase research from need to verified recommendation. Use when the user wants to buy something and asks "what's the best X", wants product options compared, or needs purchase claims verified — any consumer buying decision across electronics, appliances, software, services, and beyond. Runs requirements elicitation before any prices are seen, searches only trusted sources, verifies finalists, scores them on the user's own weighted criteria, and journals the outcome for calibration.
-
npbuilds Bundle Claim DecomposerBreak complex research questions into individually verifiable atomic claims. Use when a question contains multiple assertions, hidden assumptions, compound predicates, or causal chains that need separate verification. Produces a structured claim list with verification strategies per claim.
-
npbuilds Bundle Master ArtificerOrchestrate the creation of mind-blowing artifacts — interactive experiences, generative art, data visualizations, immersive narratives, simulations, and creative web applications. Use when the user wants to build something visually extraordinary, experientially surprising, or technically ambitious. Activates when the goal is not just "make a thing" but "make a thing that delights, surprises, or astonishes." Coordinates specialist agents, integrates with external skills (algorithmic-art, web-artifacts-builder, theme-factory), and applies a research-backed experimentation protocol to push creative boundaries.
-
npbuilds Bundle Deep HistoryAnalyze the 200,000-plus years of human history before agriculture, drawing on Smail's neurohistory, David Christian's Big History thresholds, and current research on human migration, the cognitive revolution, and the Neolithic transition. Use when examining what came before civilization, why the starting point of history matters, and how deep time perspectives reshape historical understanding.
-
mittuled Bundle Feedback Loop Formaliser UxrThis skill formalises the process for incorporating research findings into design and product decisions. Use when asked to create a research-to-action process, set up feedback loops, or ensure research findings actually influence product direction. Also consider when research reports are being produced but not acted upon. Suggest when the user notices a pattern of research being ignored in planning sessions.
-
mittuled Bundle Product Feedback Ingestion UxrThis skill ingests and structures product feedback from research channels for design team consumption. Use when asked to collect product feedback, set up feedback ingestion, or organise user feedback from multiple sources. Also consider when feedback is scattered across support tickets, surveys, and sales notes with no unified view. Suggest when the user mentions they have feedback data but no way to make sense of it.
-
mittuled Bundle Prototype Usability ValidatorThis skill runs usability testing on prototypes and reports findings with design recommendations. Use when asked to test a prototype, run a usability study, or validate a design before development. Also consider when a design review surfaces disagreements that usability data could resolve. Suggest when the user is about to hand off a complex flow to engineering without user validation.
