Writes the one-pager that aligns everyone before research starts, part of the Design Thinking Pack by 90n. Use this whenever the user says "run research-kickoff-brief", "write the research plan", "align the team on the research", "what's our research approach", or methods and guides exist but nobody has agreed on paper who is doing what by when. Use it even for "can you summarize our research setup".

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-kickoff-brief' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'research-kickoff-brief' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named research-kickoff-brief already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/polar-bear-org/claude-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '95f01806ca43f6ee788d0579743e35853b695930' -- 'packs/design-thinking-pack/skills/research-kickoff-brief' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'packs/design-thinking-pack/skills/research-kickoff-brief' ~/.agents/skills/'research-kickoff-brief' && 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-kickoff-brief' ~/.claude/skills/'research-kickoff-brief' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
