research SKILL.md skillA
research from aiskillstore/marketplace is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Delegate noisy investigation to one or more subagents so the orchestrator's context stays clean, then work from the distilled answer. Use this skill whenever answering a question would require reading many files, long logs, large diffs, or wide codebase surveys — i.e. when producing the answer generates far more noise than the answer itself. Use it for "how does X work", "where is Y used", "what's the root cause of Z", "summarize this PR/log" style questions, and reach for it liberally before…
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
# Research Use this skill to answer a question by delegating the *work of finding the answer* to a subagent, so that the byproducts of that work — file contents, log noise, dead-end reads — never enter your own context. You get back a distilled answer plus the evidence that supports it, and you stay sharp for the actual task. ## Why this matters Your context window is your most valuable and limited resource. Reading twenty files to discover that three of them mattered permanently pollutes your context with seventeen files of noise, degrading every subsequent decision you make. A subagent absorbs that noise on your behalf and hands you only the signal. Think of it as asking a colleague to dig through the archives and report back, rather than dumping the whole archive on your desk. ## When to use it Reach for research delegation when **the cost of producing the answer is far greater than the answer itself**. Strong signals: - You'd need to read many files to find the few that are relevant. - You'd need to wade through long test output, CI logs, or stack traces to extract a failure. - You'd need to survey how a pattern, API, or symbol is used across the whole repo. …

How to install
mdr add aiskillstore/marketplace/research@sha256:e059166ff4efeedbThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260904.fce3b5e, 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.
