This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed, one of 3 indexed copies. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.
customize from yichen-zju/claude-for-research is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
Configure this Claude Code research environment — skills, subagents, permissions, hooks, compute providers, and project setup. Use when the task asks to customize the research setup or create a reusable research capability.
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
# Customize
Use this skill for customizing the Claude Code research environment.
## Workflow
1. Decide where the request belongs:
- Reusable capability → skill in `~/.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md` (global) or `<project>/.claude/skills/` (project-scoped)
- Delegated worker with its own context → subagent in `~/.claude/agents/<name>.md`
- Automated behaviors ("whenever X") → hooks in `~/.claude/settings.json` (use the `update-config` skill)
- Permissions for CLIs used in research (`modal`, `docker`) → `~/.claude/settings.json` allow rules; MCP servers → `claude mcp` config
- Standing conventions → `~/.claude/CLAUDE.md`
2. Use the narrowest durable layer. Don't put one-off instructions into global config.
3. Keep names domain-centered and consistent with the existing research skill library.
4. Verify the change actually loads (skill listing, agent availability, hook fires) — not just that the file exists.
5. Record setup state in the active plan or `CHANGELOG.md` when the customization changes research behavior.
Prefer a concrete research capability over a generic productivity surface.
The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261014.9f2a5e0, 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.
