Research

hugobowne/research

Build, extend, AND query a persistent LLM-maintained wiki for any research topic. Conversational entry point that routes between four modes — query (read-only Q&A against existing research with optional Q&A save-back), init (new topic ingest), append-deep (add sources to existing topic via short rounds), and append-trusted (add a single user-vouched file to existing topic). Ingests from the Second Brain (Obsidian + Readwise + NotebookLM + GitHub repos + web seeds + user-dropped PDFs) and maintains a wiki layer (per-source pages, entities, concepts, comparisons, overview, synthesis, open questions, contradictions). Use for any research interaction — first-time research on a topic, "what do I have on X", "load my research on Y", "add this PDF to my research", "deep dive on Z", "pull together my notes on Y", "extend my research with this file". Trigger on the phrases above plus "search my research", "use my research", "find sources about X".

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
