By agentic-development/adev-plugin (GitHub) · research · 15 stars · scanned at commit 72a09a2

Structured research skill. Investigates a topic using internal codebase search, web search, and GitHub code search, producing an organized research artifact. Use when the user says 'research', 'investigate', 'compare', 'how do others do this', 'best practices for', 'what are the options', or wants to explore approaches before committing to a design.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'adev-research' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'adev-research' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named adev-research already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/agentic-development/adev-plugin' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '72a09a2feac676cbd448273920f74ec6245d7fb6' -- 'skills/research' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/research' ~/.agents/skills/'adev-research' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'adev-research' ~/.claude/skills/'adev-research' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
