research

research is a command for coding agents from simplybychris/antigravity-plugin-cc. It costs 13 tokens per session (476 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that delegates a detailed research investigation to an agy runner.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for researching a topic and receiving a report organized into background, findings, caveats, and sources.
Why use it?
It gives a research request a consistent structure for checking sources, findings, disagreements, and limitations.

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 5d 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.

What it actually says

Hand a deep-research task to the agy:runner subagent (subagent_type: "agy:runner").

Wrap the user's topic in a research-oriented preamble so agy treats it as a structured investigation rather than a quick Q&A.

Raw user request: $ARGUMENTS

How to forward

Build the research prompt for the subagent as:

Conduct a thorough research investigation on the following topic. Look up
authoritative sources, summarize the current state of knowledge, surface
disagreements or open questions, and structure the response with clear
sections (Background, Key findings, Caveats, Sources).

Topic: <stripped user request here>

(Strip any routing flags — --background, --model <alias> — from the topic text before injecting it.)

Then invoke the agy:runner subagent with that prompt as subagent_type: "agy:runner".

Routing rules

  • If the request contains --background, launch the subagent with run_in_background: true. Research is often long-running — prefer background unless the user explicitly asked for foreground.
  • If the request contains --model <alias>, forward it to the subagent so it can be appended to the wrapper call as --model <alias> (placed before the prompt argument). If no model is given, leave the choice to whatever the TUI is currently set to (a reasoning-strong model like pro or opus works well for research).

Aliases: flash-low, flash-medium, flash, pro-low, pro, sonnet, opus, gpt-oss. Canonical TUI strings (e.g. "Claude Opus 4.6 (Thinking)") are also accepted. Run /agy:help for the full table.

Response style

Return the subagent's output verbatim — no extra commentary before or after.

If the user did not supply a topic, ask what they want researched.

Changes

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 simplybychris/antigravity-plugin-cc (75 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 13 tokens to every session and 476 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. 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 2026-08-30.
