research

A research skill for turning web searches into short reports or deeper, structured investigations. It can deliver the result in chat, Markdown, or HTML when a page-like layout is needed.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for technical research, evaluations, plans, briefs, timelines, comparisons, and archived reports with sources.
Why use it?
It gives research a defined process, from gathering sources to organising findings and noting risks or next steps. Deeper work can compare multiple subjects using aligned fields.

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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (components.js, scripts/validate_json.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 195 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Research

两种模式,先选一个再开干。

模式 何时 流程
快速报告(默认) 主题单一、时效短、不需多对象结构化对比 检索 → 写报告 → 交付
深度报告 多对象/多切片、要可续跑、要字段对齐 outline → 并行 deep JSON → 合成报告 → 交付

澄清:最多问 1 次(模式 / 时间范围 / 交付格式)。能默认则默认。


交付

形态 路径 何时
对话结论 用户只要几句话
Markdown(默认文件) research/<slug>/report.mdreport/<slug>.md 需归档、分享、可打开预览
HTML report/<slug>.html 用户明确要 HTML / 单页 / 评分卡时间线等组件

规则:

  1. 未指定格式 → 文件用 Markdown
  2. HTML 仅在用户要求或组件版式明显更合适时。
  3. 最终回复 = 路径 + 一句话摘要;不复述全文。
  4. 文件交付后 attach_content。HTML 须先 bundle_report
  5. 禁止把「按字段 key 全量展开」当作主报告。
  6. 改稿纪律:首次用 write 落草稿;之后补证据/改段落用 edit(精确 old→new),禁止为小改反复 write 整篇覆盖。

快速报告

  1. web_search / web_fetch(必要时 delegate role=research)。不编造来源。
  2. 直接写报告,结构:
# 标题
> as_of / 范围

## 结论
(5–10 行主线)

## 要点
- …

## 数据 / 对比
(表格)

## 风险与下一步

## 来源
- url
  1. HTML 时用下方组件骨架 + bundle_report
  2. attach_content

深度报告

1. 建骨架

目录:research/<topic_slug>/

outline.yaml

topic: …
topic_slug: …
as_of: "YYYY-MM-DD"
mode: deep
delivery: markdown   # markdown | html | chat
items:
  - id: a
    name: 对象或切片 A
    focus: 一句话
execution:
  batch_size: 4
  output_dir: results

fields.yaml(扁平;宁少勿滥)

fields:
  - name: summary
    category: 结论
    description: 该项核心结论
    required: true
  - name: evidence
    category: 证据
    description: 关键事实与数据
  - name: sources
    category: 来源
    description: URL 列表
    required: true

事件/简报类:字段控制在 8 个以内;对比档案类可稍多。不要为无关切片硬套同一张 40 字段表。

2. 并行 deep

  • 已有 results/<id>.json 则跳过。
  • 每批最多 batch_sizedelegate(role=research),每 item 一个。
  • 子任务:检索 → 按 fields 写 JSON → 不确定写 "[不确定] …" 并列入 uncertain → 中文值 → 含 item_id / item_name / sources
  • 校验(路径按实际 skill 位置填写):
python <skill_dir>/scripts/validate_json.py -f fields.yaml -j results/<id>.json
  • 每批结束汇报进度,默认继续下一批。

3. 合成主报告(必须)

读全部 JSON,写给人看的 report.md(或 HTML):

Files

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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 skill published in the GitHub repository nullskymc/Aurevoy (10 stars, last pushed 26d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 62 tokens to every session and 1,662 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-31.
