Deep web-research methodology for the interceptor browser surface — investigate a topic the way researchers, intelligence analysts, investigative journalists, private investigators, and OSINT operators do, not 'read 3 links and summarize.' Use when the task is research, deep research, investigate, go deeper, be thorough/exhaustive, OSINT, due diligence, competitive analysis, literature review, background check, dig in, or 'find everything about X.' Drives interceptor-browser verbs…
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
# Interceptor Research A **methodology skill layered on the browser surface.** It teaches you *how to investigate* — the mechanical verbs live in `interceptor-browser` (`references/command-catalog.md`). Load that skill for flag-level detail; load this one when the task is to research a topic deeply rather than read one page. > **Most agents quit after 2–3 sources because nothing forces them deeper.

They > bypass the user's signed-in browser session, carry a scraper fingerprint, can't walk > the escalation chain or capture the network the page already calls, and never feed …

How to install
mdr add hacker-valley-media/interceptor/interceptor-research@sha256:6de53d5dfb4c1fc4The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261012.906168f, 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.
