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

Compile current scholarly evidence for a scientific manuscript or research brief. Use when the user explicitly asks to gather literature, references, background evidence, competing findings, or a manuscript research packet. Uses Parallel Search by default, Parallel Extract for source verification, Parallel Research for explicitly deep/exhaustive work, optional explicit Parallel Chat, and optional Perplexity only when requested or allowed as a failure fallback.

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/'research-lookup' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'research-lookup' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named research-lookup already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/KalarisLabs/research-agent-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '802bbea44e551abac24d6856f83fc55149bbdba3' -- 'skills/research-lookup' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/research-lookup' ~/.agents/skills/'research-lookup' && 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/'research-lookup' ~/.claude/skills/'research-lookup' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
