need-research

need-research is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from 0fuk/OpenACCP. It costs 124 tokens per session (1,254 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A research process for finding risks and questions around an important decision, including issues the requester did not think to ask about. It gathers evidence, checks claims for weaknesses, and ends with choices that include a suggested default.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for technology choices, project direction, risk reviews, and other decisions where missing information could lead to rework or loss.
Why use it?
Answering only the stated question can leave costly risks, alternatives, and long-term effects unexplored. This process makes those blind spots visible before a decision is made.

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

need-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.

What it actually says

/need-research — 决策级盲区调研

语义

用户潜台词:「我要做决策,但怀疑认知有洞。」交付三层:①你问的(证据齐全)②你没问但该知道的(按咬人程度排序)③决策选择题(每题带推荐默认值+一句理由;拍板权在用户)。

硬约束

  • 总代理 ≤10;常态 3-8;宽度跟真实维度走,禁凑数。
  • 全程禁 opus;主循环(定题/盲区地图/仲裁/终审/写报告)零子代理;所有 agent() 显式 model+effort。
  • 调研=sonnet·high;挑刺复核=sonnet·max 双盲;机械盘点=haiku·low(大切片改 sonnet)。
  • 带预算守卫;截断必 log 被放弃的覆盖面。

流程

第 0 步 定题(主循环亲做):①先定这次调研服务哪个决策——没决策的调研是消遣;不清楚就问(≤3 问);无人值守窗改为按默认假设开工+入候 owner 清单。②已知盘点——先查 ~/.claude/research-index.md 与项目文档有无同题既往报告,只研增量。③画盲区地图——从原题出发列相邻维度:风险合规/真实全周期成本/替代方案(含不做)/时间窗/退出成本/二阶后果/内行会追问什么。④维度清单 3-8 条,至少 1 条纯盲区猎手。 第 1 步 调研并发派出:每维度一代理。prompt 必含证据纪律(结论带来源+日期;营销页标 [营销源] 降权;找不到写找不到);一手优先;findings 落盘 scratchpad,返回结构化 key_claims(id/claim/evidence/confidence)。盲区猎手 prompt 明写「任务不是答 X,是找 X 周边用户没意识到的坑」。 第 2 步 双盲对抗(1-2 个,互不知晓):V1 证据实在性(逐条重抓来源,不支撑=REFUTED/弱=WEAKENED);V2 反证搜索(换关键词/语言/信源找反例,专抓过期信息、促销价冒充常价、幸存者偏差)。另答 missed:整个调研漏了什么。 第 3 步 终审(主循环):仲裁 REFUTED;冲突亲开证据裁决;missed 重要的补 1 代理或诚实标未覆盖;写报告;证伪战果单独成节。两轮挑刺复核零 REFUTED/WEAKENED 时主循环亲抽 2-3 条承重 claim。

交付规格

  • 最终报告 HTML(不是 md),浅色、说人话;视觉引用项目设计规范(无则 orch-plan 的通用骨架)。
  • 结构(顺序即优先级):一句话答案 / 你问的 / 你没问但该知道的 / 证伪战果 / 决策选择题 / 诚实未知 / 证据附录(可折叠)。
  • 决策选择题格式与 /feature-dev 决策包统一:每题=选项+推荐默认值(加粗)+一句理由+代价与可逆性(选错后果/何时还能反悔)。不替用户拍板。
  • 落盘报完整绝对路径;同时在 ~/.claude/research-index.md 追加一行(题目+路径+日期),供下次「只研增量」。
  • 排期建议禁日历日串行,画依赖图。

规模路由(报给用户选了哪档)

轻(单维度核查)=2 研+1 挑刺复核;标准(选型/方案比较)=4-5 研(含 1 猎手)+2 挑刺复核;重(战略/合规/大额)=6-8 研+2 挑刺复核(硬顶 10)。超出重档分两轮,第一轮收敛后由用户定第二轮方向。

反模式

只答原题不扫盲区;盲区清单凑数(每条必答「不知道会怎么被咬」);opus「就这一个环节」;建议写成论文而非选择题;挑刺复核只盖章不证伪;有既往报告还整题重跑;报告落成 md。

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.

need-research is a skill published in the GitHub repository 0fuk/OpenACCP (2 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 124 tokens to every session and 1,254 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-10-14.
