Research Skills

2 264 research skills from 396 authors. They find sources and get you up to speed on unfamiliar ground. Half of them fit into 2 278 tokens or less — that is what one costs your context window when the agent loads it. 663 ship runnable scripts rather than instructions alone. 4 of them cannot work without an MCP server, most often rube. We also found 263 copies of these same skills sitting in other people's repositories — counted once here, not 263 times.
