storm-research

storm-research is a skill for Claude Code from rumotion/ai-agent-project-template. It costs 132 tokens per session (2,713 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of storm-research, MIT.

A research workflow that turns a topic into a self-contained HTML briefing. It compares five expert viewpoints, checks disagreements, reviews its own work, and verifies citations against original sources.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to produce multi-perspective research reports with cited sources and an HTML file you can read or share.
Why use it?
It avoids relying on a quick search or unchecked claims when a topic needs broad, traceable coverage.

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

storm-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 13d 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 — 101 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Storm Research

What this does

Turns one topic into a verified, multi-perspective HTML briefing. It simulates five expert lenses on the topic, maps where they contradict each other, synthesizes everything into a single self-contained HTML report, then adversarially peer-reviews its own output and verifies every citation against its primary source before delivering. The output is one HTML file with no blind spots and no unchecked claims.

Run the full pipeline end to end. Do not shortcut a phase. This is heavier than a quick web lookup; that is the point.

Portability

This skill is self-contained. It depends only on built-in Claude Code tools (the Agent tool with the built-in general-purpose agent, Write, and web search/fetch used inside those agents) plus report_template.html in this same folder. No external scripts, APIs, paid services, or other skills are required. Drop the folder into any .claude/skills/ directory and it works.

Phase 0: Scope the topic

  1. If $ARGUMENTS has the topic, use it. Otherwise ask what to research.
  2. State your interpretation of the topic in one line and proceed. Only ask a clarifying question if the topic is genuinely ambiguous in a way that changes the research. Default to proceeding.
  3. Identify the reader's role so the actionable section can target it. Infer it from the topic and any stated context; if unclear, ask in one line, or default to "a practitioner or decision-maker in this field."
  4. Derive a kebab-case topic-slug from the topic for the filename.
  5. Tell the user the pipeline is running (5 lenses, then verify). One line.

Phase 1: Five expert lenses (parallel agents)

Spawn five general-purpose agents in a single message so they run concurrently. Each gets the SAME topic framing plus its own lens. Use these exact prompts, substituting {TOPIC} and a one-line {TOPIC_FRAME} (your Phase 0 interpretation):

1. THE PRACTITIONER — You are THE PRACTITIONER for: {TOPIC} ({TOPIC_FRAME}). You work with this daily. Do real web research (prioritize recent sources, case studies, practitioner threads, operator data). Surface the GAP between what hands-on operators know and what academics/pundits miss, and the practical realities (workflow friction, what actually works, where it breaks) that get ignored. Return EXACTLY: 1) CORE POSITION in 2 sentences. 2) STRONGEST EVIDENCE, 3-5 bullets each with a concrete data point/case/named source + URL. 3) THE ONE THING only a practitioner would say. Cite real sources with URLs. Under 400 words.

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.
