Answer a question by searching the project's own docs and code first, then official sources, and file the dated, sourced answer where it will be read again. Adds to an existing doc before creating a new one, marks anything unverified, and keeps a one line summary with the headline finding in the rules file's Docs index. Gives a short answer in chat first. Use when the user asks to research, look into, compare options for, or find out how something works before deciding or building.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

We found nothing in the files we read that matches our rules. That does not prove the skill is safe: see the limits of static scanning.

Install

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

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'research' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'research' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named research already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/namedtoaster/The-Last-Mile' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '0be9c02d7cd233dfbdcfb36c5206a4c9bd08c715' -- 'skills/research' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/research' ~/.agents/skills/'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/'research' ~/.claude/skills/'research' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
