Research Skills

Organize research — manage references, notes, and collaboration.

Authoring playbook for building agents that search, read, and synthesize information into a report. Use this when the user wants an agent to research a topic, summarize sources, compare options, do competitive analysis, monitor news, generate briefs, or pull together a citation-backed report from the web or internal documents.

Run a pre-mortem risk analysis on a PRD or launch plan. Categorizes risks as Tigers (real problems), Paper Tigers (overblown concerns), and Elephants (unspoken worries), then classifies as launch-blocking, fast-follow, or track. Use when preparing for launch, stress-testing a product plan, or identifying what could go wrong.

Identify the Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) from research data with demographics, behaviors, JTBD, and needs. Use when defining your ICP, analyzing PMF survey data, or understanding who your best customers are.

Analyze user feedback data to identify segments with sentiment scores, JTBD, and product satisfaction insights. Use when analyzing user feedback at scale, running sentiment analysis on reviews or surveys, or identifying satisfaction patterns.

Create refined user personas from research data — 3 personas with JTBD, pains, gains, and unexpected insights. Use when building personas from survey data, creating user profiles from research, or segmenting users for product decisions.

Create a structured customer interview script with JTBD probing questions, warm-up, core exploration, and wrap-up sections. Follows The Mom Test principles — no leading questions, no pitching, focus on past behavior. Use when preparing for user interviews, creating interview guides, or planning discovery research.

Converts Markdown to styled HTML with WeChat-compatible themes. Supports code highlighting, math, Mermaid (rendered to PNG via headless Chrome), PlantUML, footnotes, alerts, infographics, and optional bottom citations for external links. Use when user asks for "markdown to html", "convert md to html", "md 转 html", "微信外链转底部引用", or needs styled HTML output from markdown.

Posts content to WeChat Official Account (微信公众号) via API or Chrome CDP. Supports article posting (文章) with HTML, markdown, or plain text input, and image-text posting (贴图, formerly 图文) with multiple images. Markdown article workflows default to converting ordinary external links into bottom citations for WeChat-friendly output. Use when user mentions "发布公众号", "post to wechat", "微信公众号", or "贴图/图文/文章".

Use when the user asks how to build with OpenAI products or APIs, asks about Codex itself or choosing Codex surfaces, needs up-to-date official documentation with citations, help choosing the latest model for a use case, or model upgrade and prompt-upgrade guidance; use OpenAI docs MCP tools for non-Codex docs questions, use the Codex manual helper first for broad Codex self-knowledge, and restrict fallback browsing to official OpenAI domains.

Use when the user asks how to build with OpenAI products or APIs, asks about Codex itself or choosing Codex surfaces, needs up-to-date official documentation with citations, help choosing the latest model for a use case, or model upgrade and prompt-upgrade guidance; use OpenAI docs MCP tools for non-Codex docs questions, use the Codex manual helper first for broad Codex self-knowledge, and restrict fallback browsing to official OpenAI domains.

Set up your bio-research environment and explore available tools. Use when first getting oriented with the plugin, checking which literature, drug-discovery, or visualization MCP servers are connected, or surveying available analysis skills before starting a new project.

Multi-source research on a customer question or topic with source attribution. Use when a customer asks something you need to look up, investigating whether a bug has been reported before, checking what was previously told to a specific account, or gathering background before drafting a response.

Synthesize user research into themes, insights, and recommendations. Use when you have interview transcripts, survey results, usability test notes, support tickets, or NPS responses that need to be distilled into patterns, user segments, and prioritized next steps.

Plan, conduct, and synthesize user research. Trigger with "user research plan", "interview guide", "usability test", "survey design", "research questions", or when the user needs help with any aspect of understanding their users through research.

Synthesize user research from interviews, surveys, and feedback into structured insights. Use when you have a pile of interview notes, survey responses, or support tickets to make sense of, need to extract themes and rank findings by frequency and impact, or want to turn raw feedback into roadmap recommendations.

| 横纵分析法（Horizontal-Vertical Analysis）深度研究Skill。由数字生命卡兹克提出，融合了索绪尔的历时-共时分析、社会科学的纵向-横截面研究设计、商学院案例研究法与竞争战略分析的核心思想。 当用户想要系统性研究一个产品、公司、概念、技术或人物时使用。核心是双轴分析：纵轴追踪从诞生到当下的完整生命历程（以叙事故事呈现），横轴在当下时间截面上与竞品/同类进行系统性横向对比，最后交叉两条轴产出独到洞察。最终产出一份排版精美的PDF研究报告。 触发词包括但不限于：横纵分析、研究一下、帮我分析、深度研究、做个研究、调研一下、竞品分析、帮我看看这个东西怎么样、这个产品/公司/概念是怎么回事、帮我摸清楚、帮我搞懂、帮我做个deep research。 即使用户只是说"帮我了解一下XX"或"XX是什么来头"，只要上下文暗示需要系统性的深度研究（而非简单的概念解释），都应该触发。也适用于用户丢来一个产品名、公司名、技术名词说"帮我研究一下这个"的场景。 不要用于简单的名词解释（用户只是问"XX是什么"）、不要用于公众号写作（那个用khazix-writer）、不要用于纯标题摘要生成（用wechat-title）。

把一句话的想法拆成 AI agent 能独立跑完的目标任务书。用户说「帮我给 agent 写个目标」「帮我详细拆一下这个目标」「写个任务书/brief 给 agent」「写个 goal 提示词」「让 agent 自己跑这个项目」「把活分给几个 agent 并行」时使用。先进代码库实测、必要时联网调研，再一次性提问（≤5 个），产出一份 ≤4000 字符、直接粘进 /goal 就能跑的任务书，含实测数字、白名单地界、防作弊验收和断点续跑。执行型与探索型（调研/选型/找方案）自动分流。

> (1) Adding a brand-new syscall that currently returns ENOSYS or is missing from the table. (2) Adding missing flags/options to an existing partially-supported syscall (e.g., a new prctl option, ioctl command, or socket option). Use when asked to implement a syscall, add a flag, or improve compatibility for a specific syscall.

This skill should be used when designing autonomous agent harnesses: research loops, evaluation scaffolds, locked and editable surfaces, durable logs, novelty gates, pruning, rollback, PR preparation, and human approval boundaries.

Research and draft a response to a GitHub issue or question from an external contributor.

Quick single-paper lookup via AlphaXiv LLM-optimized summaries with tiered source fallback. Use when user says "explain this paper", "summarize paper", pastes an arXiv/AlphaXiv URL, or provides a bare arXiv ID for quick understanding - not for broad literature search.

Autonomous multi-round research review loop. Repeatedly reviews via external reviewer backend (Codex or manual), implements fixes, and re-reviews until positive assessment or max rounds reached. Use when user says "auto review loop", "review until it passes", or wants autonomous iterative improvement.

Search and progressively read open-access academic papers through DeepXiv. Use when the user wants layered paper access, section-level reading, trending papers, or DeepXiv-backed literature retrieval.

Zero-context verification that every bibliographic entry in the paper is real, correctly attributed, and used in a context the cited paper actually supports — catching hallucinated authors, wrong years, fabricated venues, version mismatches, and wrong-context citations. Use when user says \"审查引用\", \"check citations\", \"citation audit\", \"verify references\", \"引用核对\", or before submission to ensure bibliography integrity.

AI-powered web search via Exa with content extraction. Use when user says "exa search", "web search with content", "find similar pages", or needs broad web results beyond academic databases (arXiv, Semantic Scholar).

Turn a refined research proposal or method idea into a detailed, claim-driven experiment roadmap. Use after `research-refine`, or when the user asks for a detailed experiment plan, ablation matrix, evaluation protocol, run order, compute budget, or paper-ready validation that supports the core problem, novelty, simplicity, and any LLM / VLM / Diffusion / RL-based contribution.

Structures and derives research formulas when the user wants to 推导公式, build a theory line, organize assumptions, turn scattered equations into a coherent derivation, or rewrite theory notes into a paper-ready formula document. Use when the derivation target is not yet fully fixed, the main object still needs to be chosen, or the user needs a coherent derivation package rather than a finished theorem proof.

Search research papers via Gemini for broad literature discovery. Use when user says "gemini search", "gemini papers", "search with gemini", or wants AI-powered literature discovery beyond arXiv/Semantic Scholar indexes.

Generate and rank research ideas given a broad direction. Use when user says "找idea", "brainstorm ideas", "generate research ideas", "what can we work on", or wants to explore a research area for publishable directions.

Workflow 1 adaptation for robotics and embodied AI.

Run the Anti-Autoresearch integrity-forensics sweep (span-anchored evidence ledger → GPT auditors propose findings → deterministic rules-only adjudicator) against a paper via a SHA-pinned thin launcher — then convert the verdict into a typed policy gate (BLOCK/WARN/NO_NEW_BLOCKER) and an append-only obligations ledger. Use when user says \"integrity forensics\", \"forensic audit this paper\", \"投稿前自查诚信\", \"审这篇论文的诚信\", or says \"anti-autoresearch\" when the upstream repo's own skills are not installed. Also invoked by /paper-writing (submission self-forensics, default ON), /peer-review (forensic appendix), /resubmit-pipeline.

Two-thread adversarial review: a fresh reviewer constructs the strongest 200-word rejection memo, then a second fresh reviewer defends the paper point-by-point and surfaces still-unresolved critical issues. Use when user says \"kill argument\", \"adversarial review\", \"hostile review\", \"rebuttal preparation\", \"reviewer-2 simulation\", or before submitting a theory paper that has already passed standard review rounds.

Two-way sync between a local paper directory and an Overleaf project, so ARIS audit/edit workflows stay on the local copy while collaborators edit in the Overleaf web UI. Use when user says \"同步 overleaf\", \"overleaf sync\", \"推送到 overleaf\", \"connect overleaf\", \"Overleaf 桥接\", \"pull overleaf\", \"push overleaf\", or wants to bridge their ARIS paper directory with an Overleaf project.
