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.

gitbookio Skill Cr Review 2Review GitBook change requests from Claude Code by calling the GitBook REST API directly with curl (no CLI) — the reviewer-side companion to cr-create (the authoring side over the same API). Discover the change requests that need review (filter by who opened them, by space, or across a whole org), get the GitBook app link to review the diff, summarize what actually changed in a CR, then leave comments and optionally submit a review verdict (approve / request changes). Use this whenever someone wants to review docs change requests over the raw API (curl/HTTP), asks "what CRs are open / waiting on me / opened by <person>", "show me the change requests in <space>/<org>", "summarize what changed in this CR", "review this change request", "leave a comment on a CR", or "approve / request changes on a CR". For the authoring side (create a CR, push content, request reviewers, fix comments) over the API, use cr-create instead.
