research

research is a command for Claude Code from ruvnet/sublinear-time-solver. It costs 0 tokens per session (790 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A coordinated research workflow that gathers information from websites and academic papers, then combines the findings.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for web research, literature reviews, paper analysis, citation tracking, statistics, and technical reports.
Why use it?
It separates searching, source checking, data analysis, and report writing so research is easier to review.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

research scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Research Swarm Strategy

Purpose

Deep research through parallel information gathering.

Activation

Using MCP Tools

// Initialize research swarm
mcp__claude-flow__swarm_init({
  "topology": "mesh",
  "maxAgents": 6,
  "strategy": "adaptive"
})

// Orchestrate research task
mcp__claude-flow__task_orchestrate({
  "task": "research topic X",
  "strategy": "parallel",
  "priority": "medium"
})

Using CLI (Fallback)

npx claude-flow swarm "research topic X" --strategy research

Agent Roles

Agent Spawning with MCP

// Spawn research agents
mcp__claude-flow__agent_spawn({
  "type": "researcher",
  "name": "Web Researcher",
  "capabilities": ["web-search", "content-extraction", "source-validation"]
})

mcp__claude-flow__agent_spawn({
  "type": "researcher",
  "name": "Academic Researcher",
  "capabilities": ["paper-analysis", "citation-tracking", "literature-review"]
})

mcp__claude-flow__agent_spawn({
  "type": "analyst",
  "name": "Data Analyst",
  "capabilities": ["data-processing", "statistical-analysis", "visualization"]
})

mcp__claude-flow__agent_spawn({
  "type": "documenter",
  "name": "Report Writer",
  "capabilities": ["synthesis", "technical-writing", "formatting"]
})

Research Methods

Information Gathering

// Parallel information collection
mcp__claude-flow__parallel_execute({
  "tasks": [
    { "id": "web-search", "command": "search recent publications" },
    { "id": "academic-search", "command": "search academic databases" },
    { "id": "data-collection", "command": "gather relevant datasets" }
  ]
})

// Store research findings
mcp__claude-flow__memory_usage({
  "action": "store",
  "key": "research-findings-" + Date.now(),
  "value": JSON.stringify(findings),
  "namespace": "research",
  "ttl": 604800 // 7 days
})

Analysis and Validation

// Pattern recognition in findings
mcp__claude-flow__pattern_recognize({
  "data": researchData,
  "patterns": ["trend", "correlation", "outlier"]
})

// Cognitive analysis
mcp__claude-flow__cognitive_analyze({
  "behavior": "research-synthesis"

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

research is a command published in the GitHub repository ruvnet/sublinear-time-solver (89 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 790 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
