futuresearch-python SKILL.md skillA

futuresearch-python from futuresearch/futuresearch-python is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add futuresearch/futuresearch-python/futuresearch-python@git:20260930.ab0fb7c

Pins git:20260930.ab0fb7c in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Use when the user wants a FutureSearch forecast: the probability, date or number for a question about the future, or the outcomes of a decision they, their company, or someone else is facing (pricing, hiring, funding, launch timing, policy). Also covers web research across the rows of a table.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# FutureSearch Python SDK

FutureSearch forecasts questions about the future, including the outcomes of decisions. Use this skill when writing Python code or calling MCP tools that need to:

**Operations:**
- Forecast the outcomes of a decision, yours or someone else's: the same outcome under each option
- Forecast probabilities, numbers, dates, and categories for questions about the future
- Research one question with a team of parallel agents
- Run AI agents over dataframe rows

> **Documentation**: For detailed guides, case studies, and API reference, see:
> - Docs site: [futuresearch.ai/docs](https://futuresearch.ai/docs)
> - GitHub: [github.com/futuresearch/futuresearch-python](https://github.com/futuresearch/futuresearch-python)

## Installation

### Python SDK

```bash
pip install futuresearch
```

### MCP Server (for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.)

If an MCP server is available (`futuresearch_forecast`, `futuresearch_decision`, etc. tools), you can use it directly without writing Python code. The MCP server operates on uploaded data (via artifact IDs or inline JSON).

To install the MCP server, add to your MCP config:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add futuresearch/futuresearch-python/futuresearch-python@sha256:6baa71978e408b3e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260930.ab0fb7c, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
