Comprehensive open-source library of AI research and engineering skills for any AI model. Package the skills and your claude code/codex/gemini agent will be an AI research agent with full horsepower. Maintained by Orchestra Research.
About the project
AI Research Skills Library is a collection of reusable instructions that guide AI agents through research and machine-learning engineering tasks, from finding ideas and writing papers to training, evaluation, and deployment. It is for configuring agents such as Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini to perform research workflows.
LLM architectures and implementations including LitGPT, Mamba, NanoGPT, RWKV, and TorchTitan. Use when implementing, training, or understanding transformer and alternative architectures.
