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

By fcakyon/labrat (GitHub) · research · 459 stars · scanned at commit 0487762

Use when the user wants to find related work, survey a research area, run a literature gap analysis, or discover open-source implementations. Maps existing work on a topic and confirms with web search what is missing. Triggers on phrases like "find papers on", "related work", "literature review", "what papers exist", "gap analysis", "literature gaps", "what's missing in", "open source implementation", or "papers with code".

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/'literature-research' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'literature-research' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named literature-research already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/fcakyon/labrat' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '04877622ff124d92d9ee8377109499c0afc6bf01' -- 'plugin/skills/literature-research' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugin/skills/literature-research' ~/.agents/skills/'literature-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/'literature-research' ~/.claude/skills/'literature-research' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
