Records research provenance as a post-task epilogue, scanning conversation history at the end of a coding or research session to extract decisions, experiments, dead ends, claims, heuristics, and pivots, and writing them into the ara/ directory with user-vs-AI provenance tags. Use as a session epilogue — never during execution — to maintain a faithful, auditable trace of how a research project actually evolved.

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/'ara-research-manager' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'ara-research-manager' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named ara-research-manager already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/Orchestra-Research/AI-Research-SKILLs' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '773a52944ba4747a18bd4ae9ade53fff041adcbc' -- '22-agent-native-research-artifact/research-manager' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'22-agent-native-research-artifact/research-manager' ~/.agents/skills/'ara-research-manager' && 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/'ara-research-manager' ~/.claude/skills/'ara-research-manager' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
