87 / 100 · Low risk

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

By lamm-mit/scienceclaw (GitHub) · research · 251 stars · scanned at commit 894598c

Look up current research information using Perplexity's Sonar Pro Search or Sonar Reasoning Pro models through OpenRouter. Automatically selects the best model based on query complexity. Search academic papers, recent studies, technical documentation, and general research information with citations.

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=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/lamm-mit/scienceclaw' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '894598cd3a90891a077c254566276bd379038bad' -- 'skills/research-lookup' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$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.
