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.
-

-
drugclaw Bundle Survival Analysis ToolsSurvival and time-to-event workflow guide for Kaplan-Meier summaries, log-rank tests, and Cox proportional hazards models with reproducible outputs. Use when the user asks for time-to-event analysis, censored data summaries, hazard ratios, or survival-group comparison for research datasets.
-
drugclaw Bundle Scientific Workflow ToolsResearch-method workflow guide for hypothesis framing, peer-review style critique, reproducibility planning, study-design checks, and scientific-writing structure. Use when the user asks for manuscript critique, research-gap framing, hypothesis generation, reproducibility checklists, or study-planning support that should stay on the research side rather than patient-care decisions.
-
drugclaw Bundle Target Intelligence ToolsTarget research workflow guide for building compact drug-target dossiers across protein identity, disease evidence, known drugs, interaction partners, pathways, and variant constraint signals. Use when the user asks for a target brief, target validation snapshot, or a one-file summary of what is known about a gene or protein target.

onewave-ai Skill Ticker BriefOne company on one page -- what the business actually does, how it makes money, recent results and guidance, valuation context, the honest bull and bear case, and the risks. Research support, not a recommendation. Use before buying, before earnings, or when a position needs a fresh look.
-
timbogp Skill Start SessionBegin a bracketed learning session inside a agentic-study-environment sub-project — pick a topic, propose theory vs. practice (or an overlay-specific type such as simulation or defense), and conduct it per the sub-project's domain overlay. Use whenever the user signals they want to actively study, work an exercise, role-play a clinical case, rehearse a research defense, or review theory inside a sub-project — phrases like "start session", "let's work on X", "begin a practice session", "ok let's study Y", or "I want to do an exercise on Z" should trigger this skill. A session is the harness's unit of work and ends with the stop-session skill.
-
vdustr Bundle Vp AutodevTake a valid issue or development task through research, reproduction, solution design, implementation, verification, draft PR review, feedback loops, merge, and release follow-up. Use for end-to-end development in repositories the user owns or is authorized to change. Boundary: use a narrower dependency, reproduction, checklist, or PR skill when the request covers only that step. In a user-specified repository the user owns, this workflow owns delivery through merge and required release follow-up when the repository's rules permit it and the change is low risk and fully verified. It does not authorize unrelated fixes or writes outside that workflow.
-
vdustr Bundle Vp Macos Clean UninstallResearch, plan, and perform a clean macOS application or CLI uninstall, including optional residue review. Boundary: macOS only; do not remove SIP-protected system components or unrelated browser data.
-

89jobrien Bundle Project PulseThis skill should be used when the user asks to "end session", "capture state", "session summary", "what changed this session", "summarize repos", "write session notes", or wants to capture multi-repo state at the end of a work session.
-
axect Bundle Bibtex GenGenerate BibTeX entries for academic references from arXiv IDs, DOIs, titles, URLs, batch lists, or reference-search JSON. Route HEP papers to InspireHEP, non-HEP papers to Google Scholar when available, and CrossRef DOI BibTeX as a fallback; preserve source-native keys and print or append to a .bib file. Use when the user asks for bibtex, citation entries, bibliography filling, arXiv/DOI/title-to-BibTeX, InspireHEP BibTeX, publisher BibTeX, or converting discovered references into a .bib file.
