web-research-workflow

web-research-workflow is a skill for Claude Code from yonatangross/orchestkit. It costs 72 tokens per session (989 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for researching websites that chooses between direct fetching, a search-and-extraction service, and a full browser. It supports extracting pages, handling sites that need login or JavaScript, and comparing later snapshots for changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to research web pages, collect content from multiple pages, monitor competitor pages, and detect changes over time.
Why use it?
It reduces the need to guess which web access method will work when a page is incomplete, dynamic, or protected by a login.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Skill selects an external model or provider that may use a different account or billing plan than the operator expects. Undisclosed model switches can cause unexpected cost or quota consumption.
    Fix: Remove the model/provider override or disclose it prominently and require explicit operator approval before invoking an external coding CLI or billed model.

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

web-research-workflow 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 yesterday.

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.

Tavily Enhanced Research

When TAVILY_API_KEY is set, Tavily provides a powerful middle tier between WebFetch and agent-browser. It returns raw markdown content, supports batch URL extraction, and offers semantic search with relevance scoring. If TAVILY_API_KEY is not set, the 3-tier tree collapses to 2-tier (WebFetch → agent-browser) automatically.

Load details: Read("references/tavily-api.md") for Search, Extract, Map, Crawl, and Research endpoint examples and options.

Browser Patterns

For content requiring JavaScript rendering, authentication, or multi-page crawling, fall back to agent-browser.

What ships with it

8 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.
