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.

iamwaqargulzar Bundle Voice Dossier BuilderUse when the user asks to "codify how our founder sounds", "build a founder voice dossier", or "set our content pillars"; runs an 80%-extraction interview over the user's OWN posts, emails, and decks (never competitor scraping, never an invented persona) and produces the versioned voice record — a per-platform register map (incl. 小红书/微信公众号), banned phrases, per-context disclosure lines (the ECHO C2 upstream), a few-shot bank built exclusively from own posts, and 3-5 content pillars with Estimated %-allocations — submitted via memory/events/channels.ndjson for channel-registry to store as voice-dossier.md, the record every Craft-phase skill reads first. Not for the brand-level voice canon — use brand-language-codifier; not for audience/persona research — use audience-mapper. 声音档案/品牌语气/创始人语气/内容支柱/披露声明
-
iamwaqargulzar Bundle Domain Authority AuditorUse when auditing domain authority, trust, or citation credibility; runs a peer-relative 40-item CITE profile with evidence coverage and verified manipulation/penalty veto checks. Not for page-level content quality — use content-quality-auditor; not for backlink profiling alone — use offsite-signal-analyzer. 域名权威/网站可信度
-
joogy06 Bundle SummarizeUse when the user wants to summarize, condense, digest, or extract the key points / TL;DR / executive summary / action items / minutes from any source — pasted text, a file, an email or email thread (Outlook), a Confluence page (optionally with all its subpages), a wiki page, or a web URL. Picks an output shape (TL;DR / exec summary / key points / action-items & decisions / abstract / meeting minutes / structured per-section), fetches the source by composing existing skills (large-file-analysis, confluence-rest-api, ms-office-graph-python, wiki, web-research), and produces a faithful, attributed summary that never invents facts. Trigger on - summarize this, summarise the email/page/thread, TL;DR, give me the key points, exec summary, action items from, minutes from this, condense, digest, what does this say, brief me on.
-
ericrisco Bundle Idea RefinementUse when a rough product, service, workflow or feature idea needs divergent options and assumption pressure-testing before it becomes a spec. Produces a decision brief with alternatives, evidence gaps, Not Now and a cheap experiment. NOT requirements or acceptance criteria (`specify`), NOT market sizing (`market-research`).
-
ericrisco Bundle Market ResearchUse when a MARKET as a whole needs a defensible picture — TAM/SAM/SOM sized top-down AND bottom-up until the two converge, cut into reachable segments with one named beachhead, demand proven real, and a dated source behind every figure. NOT profiling named rivals and their moves (that is `competitor-watch`), NOT building a list of accounts to sell to (that is `lead-gen`).
-
ericrisco Bundle Youtube IdeationUse when deciding which videos a channel should make next and tracking whether each bet beat baseline — generating, scoring and prioritising candidate ideas from the channel's own performance log plus outlier and search-trend research, then recording each promoted idea as a dated hypothesis with its measured outcome. NOT writing the title or thumbnail text for a chosen idea (that is `youtube-packaging`).
-
ericrisco Bundle Source Grounded DevelopmentUse when implementation or review depends on current version-specific framework, SDK, protocol or platform behaviour and memory is unsafe. Detects exact local versions, verifies primary sources, tests applicability and marks unknowns. NOT a standalone cited memo (`research-ops`), NOT diagnosis of a reproduced failure (`debug`).
