Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a research skill usually looks things up on the internet.

When you want multi-source, multi-step research on a topic — competitor research before a sales call, market research for a new business idea, positioning angles, due diligence on a partnership or podcast guest, tech decision research (which DB, which auth), or any "I need to actually understand X." Combines web search, URL fetch, agent-browser, last30days (Reddit/X/YouTube/HN/web recency), memory, and Notion. Outputs a structured brief with citations, contradictions, gaps, and recommended next…

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

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

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'deep-research' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'deep-research' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named deep-research already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/coreyhaines31/makerskills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'b465319a5e675a89ea9fd87a15191c9a8ad13649' -- 'skills/deep-research' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/deep-research' ~/.agents/skills/'deep-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/'deep-research' ~/.claude/skills/'deep-research' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
