setup-research-stack

setup-research-stack is a skill for Claude Code from nett0eth/research-stack. It costs 74 tokens per session (991 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A setup procedure for installing and checking a complete research tool stack while recording how long each installation takes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when setting up the research environment for the first time, rerunning setup, or diagnosing a research workflow that lacks a required tool.
Why use it?
It shows which tools were installed successfully and clearly reports anything missing, including when installation must happen on the user's own computer.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable. Also seen: mentions Claude Code.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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

setup-research-stack 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 1mo 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 73 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Setup do research-stack

Instale as ferramentas, registre o tempo real de cada etapa e relate o que ficou faltando. Não silencie falha: ferramenta ausente vira aviso explícito.

Etapa 0: descobrir onde o Bash roda

Antes de qualquer instalação, verifique se o Bash disponível é a máquina do usuário ou um ambiente isolado.

Rode ls / e confirme se o sistema de arquivos do usuário está acessível. No Claude Code em terminal local, está. No Cowork e em ambientes com sandbox, o Bash é outro computador e instalar ali não serve para nada, porque os servidores MCP rodam na máquina do usuário.

Se o ambiente for isolado, não rode o script. Entregue os comandos para o usuário rodar no terminal dele e siga para a Etapa 2 no mesmo formato. Diga isso explicitamente em vez de instalar no lugar errado e reportar sucesso.

Etapa 1: rodar o script

Execute ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/setup.sh com Bash. Ele instala os conversores e os clientes MCP em Python, cronometra cada instalação e grava o resultado em ./research-stack-timings.txt.

Peça confirmação ao usuário antes de rodar, porque o script instala pacotes na máquina dele. Ofereça a flag --dry-run para ele ver a lista antes.

Etapa 2: skills de terceiros

Este plugin não redistribui skill de outro autor. Instale da fonte original, preservando crédito e mantendo tudo atualizado.

Caminho padrão, sem custo e sem chave de API. Rode um por vez e reporte quais funcionaram:

npx skills add mattpocock/skills --skill research --agent claude-code
npx skills add tw93/waza --skill learn --agent claude-code
npx skills add 199-biotechnologies/claude-deep-research-skill --skill deep-research --agent claude-code
npx skills add lllllllama/RigorPilot-Skills --skill ai-research-explore --agent claude-code
npx skills add coreyhaines31/marketingskills --skill competitor-profiling --agent claude-code

Essas cinco usam as ferramentas nativas do agente e as bases públicas do paper-search, então funcionam sem credencial paga.

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.
