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.
-
aryaniyaps Bundle Lamina ResearchPlan and synthesize evidence-grounded product research. Use when deciding what evidence is needed, designing actor walkthroughs, grounding claims in a repository or live product, analyzing user-provided references, modeling users and tasks, or communicating findings without inventing data. Use lamina-evaluation instead to judge a built product, and lamina-ux to design interaction behavior.
-
aryaniyaps Bundle Lamina EvaluationJudge product usability and evidence quality. Use when running Persona-based walkthroughs on a built product, planning an expert heuristic review, defining evidence-backed success metrics, or checking quantitative claims without inventing measurements. Use lamina-research to plan or synthesize evidence collection and lamina-ux to design interaction behavior.
-
babyracoonbbq Bundle Review ResearcherCreate or update a source-grounded Obsidian review of a researcher after at least ten of their papers have complete literature notes. Use when evaluating a potential supervisor, collaborator, or researcher; synthesizing research themes, trajectory, recent directions, representative works, collaborators, author roles, student-era first-author work, methods, impact, industry fit, and open questions; or building a supervisor hub note with verified bidirectional links. Enforce a local-first reading manifest and an audited per-paper evidence ledger before any web research or synthesis. If fewer than ten analyzed notes exist, stop and recommend $survey-researcher-papers first.
-
roadofriot Skill ResearchPerform reliable current technical research using authoritative sources.
-
quantumbfs Skill Paper Review ChecklistUse when the user asks to review a research-paper draft (typically LaTeX) or a related text (reply-to-referee, thesis chapter, technical note). Walks a fixed checklist of common issues — notation, figures, citations, structure, equations, style, reproducibility — and inserts inline author-comment reminders at locations that fail each check. Triggers on phrases like "review my paper", "check my draft", "apply the checklist", "review as a PRB reviewer".
-
raxxid-ux Skill UX Research Insights BeginnerTurns raw UX research (interview notes, survey answers, observations) into simple user insights and pain points. Use when you have research data and don't know what to do with it, or when you're new to research synthesis and need a clear step-by-step method with examples instead of a blank page.
-
raxxid-ux Skill UX Research Insights IntermediateSynthesizes UX research into insights with rigor — weighting evidence strength, spotting contradictions, and stress-testing conclusions before they drive design decisions. Use when you already know the basic affinity-mapping method and need to go deeper — validating insights, resolving conflicting data, or defending research findings to stakeholders.
-
raxxid-ux Skill Plan Design Project BeginnerBreaks a UI/UX or branding project into simple weekly phases (research, design, identity, application, guidelines) so the work feels organized instead of overwhelming. Use when starting a new design project and don't know how to structure your time, or when a project feels chaotic and you need a clear plan to follow.

m1nga Skill Conclude Rounds 2Conclude the last N rounds of the CURRENT conversation, in Chinese by default, AND hand back 5 evidence-based insights for working more efficiently with Claude Code. Read back over the recent exchanges — both the user's questions AND the assistant's answers, including code written, decisions made, and progress — then give a tight conclusion (what was asked, what was actually done and verified vs merely proposed, current state, open decisions) followed by 5 concrete Claude-Code-usage insights drawn from patterns in those rounds. N defaults to 4 and is read from what the user says (前4轮 / past 3 / 前面5个来回 / 前面两个问题). This is an IN-conversation recap, read-only — it never changes files, and it is NOT a cross-session daily digest. Run whenever the user says 总结前面N轮 / 总结一下前面 / 小结一下 / 结论一下 / 回顾前面几轮 / 前4轮 / 这几轮做了啥 / conclude the last N rounds / recap the last few rounds / summarize what we just did / catch me up on this thread — even without naming the skill. Works identically in Claude Code and Codex.

jonny-1812 Skill Customer 360Get a complete customer profile by aggregating contact details, conversation history, notes, and relevant knowledge base articles into a single unified view. Use when the user wants to see everything about a customer, look up a contact's full history, or prepare for a customer call.
-
mikiagent Bundle Context RouterManage large or noisy working context for repository research, long documents, logs, datasets, multi-file investigations, and long-running coding tasks. Use when the task risks context overload, requires evidence from many locations, or would benefit from probing/searching/filtering external sources before reading them deeply. Build a bounded working set by probing structure, narrowing candidates, admitting only relevant evidence, delegating separable scopes when useful, synthesizing results, and validating evidence coverage. Prefer simple direct reads for small localized tasks and do not add recursive scaffolding unless it earns its complexity.
-
catch-the-wave Bundle Triz Product ArchitectTRIZ-powered product architecture and design decisions. Use when facing product trade-offs ("more features vs simplicity"), choosing between design approaches, resolving UX contradictions, making architecture decisions, or when the user says "TRIZ", "trade-off", "contradiction", "can we have both", "approach A vs B", or asks you to evaluate competing design directions. NOT for generic engineering — this is for product craft.
-

-
qoli Bundle Codex Session Distill SearchBroad local Codex session search and safe activity summarization with distill. Use when the user asks what they did today, yesterday, recently, this week, or during a time range; asks to summarize Codex work history without providing a UUID; says things like "看看昨天做什麼", "今天做了什麼", "最近我在忙什麼", "整理一下這幾天的 Codex 對話"; or wants a dominant workstream summary across many local Codex Desktop/CLI sessions. For exact UUID recovery, hand off to codex-conversation-lookup instead.
