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.

flashfoxer Bundle Baoyu Wechat SummarySummarizes WeChat group chat highlights into a structured digest using the local wx-cli binary (https://github.com/jackwener/wx-cli). Generates a normal digest by default; a roast (毒舌) version is opt-in. Maintains per-group history (history.json + history-digests.jsonl), per-user profiles, and per-group fact memory (memory.md) across runs, with privacy guardrails baked in. Use when the user asks to "总结群聊", "群聊精华", "群聊摘要", "summarize group chat", "group chat digest", mentions a WeChat group name with a time range, says "帮我看看 XX 群最近聊了什么", "XX 群有什么值得看的", or asks to "回溯画像" / "初始化画像" / "backfill profiles". Adds the roast version when the user says "毒舌版", "roast 版", "再来个毒舌的", or similar.

bg-szy Skill Academic Paper StrategistSystematic strategic planning framework for philosophy and interdisciplinary academic papers targeting preprint platforms (PhilArchive, arXiv, PhilSci-Archive). Use when users want to: (1) plan a paper on a specific topic, (2) identify research gaps and assess originality, (3) develop optimized paper outlines, (4) prepare for preprint submission, or (5) understand platform requirements and writing standards. Triggered by phrases like 'plan a paper on,' 'help me design a paper about,' 'identify research gaps in,' 'is this idea original,' or when users need structured research planning. The skill guides through three phases: Platform Analysis (identifying target venue and studying sample papers), Theoretical Framework (AI-driven literature search and gap identification), and Outline Optimization (structured design with reviewer-perspective self-assessment). Each phase includes quality evaluation standards and validation checkpoints.

mhassan0000 Bundle Inbox SetupOne-time setup skill that builds a personalized inbox triage knowledge base via interactive interview. Interviews the user about their email patterns, business context, reply style, and priorities using grill-me discipline (one question at a time, forcing format where possible, dependency-ordered, each question explains why I'm asking), then generates the knowledge base files that power the companion 'inbox-triage' skill. Run this once before using inbox-triage for the first time. Re-run when business, pricing, or priorities change significantly. Triggers: 'set up my inbox', 'configure inbox triage', 'set up my email system', 'configure email triage', 'build my email knowledge base', 'initialize email management', 'set up inbox triage', 'onboard email triage', or any variation where someone wants to get the email triage system running for the first time.

mhassan0000 Bundle Clinical ResearchUse when designing a prospective clinical study before submission — selecting and classifying endpoints (primary / key-secondary / exploratory, with surrogate-endpoint flagging), estimating sample size and power for two-arm designs (means / proportions / survival), or scoring a study plan for feasibility and a GO / GO-WITH-CONDITIONS / REDESIGN / NO-GO phase-gate decision. Every output is an ESTIMATE plus a named human owner (clinician / biostatistician / regulatory owner) — never clinical fact, never a finished protocol. Distinct from ra-qm-team, which handles the regulatory/QM submission (ISO 13485, EU MDR, FDA 510(k)/PMA/QSR), not the study design.
