research is agent-read markdown (skill) from notque/vexjoy-agent: Research: structured investigation, fact-checking, explanation traces..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# Research Skill
Three modes. Select by request signal:
| Signal | Mode |
|--------|------|
| Formal research, investigation, sourced report, gather evidence | Research Pipeline |
| Fact check, verify claims, check facts, is this accurate, verify quote | Fact-Check |
| Why did you, explain routing, show trace, decision log, why that agent | Explanation Traces |
Default: Research Pipeline.
---
## Mode A: Research Pipeline
---
## Mode B: Fact-Check
Verify every factual claim in a draft before publish. Burden of proof sits on the claim, not the checker. Works standalone or as a pre-publish gate. Non-blocking: the report warns; the caller decides whether to publish.
### Phase 1: EXTRACT
List every checkable claim: statistics, prices, dates, quotes, attributions, titles, event facts, rankings, causal assertions. Opinions and speculation stay out.
For each claim, record: ID, verbatim text, type (stat/quote/attribution/event/title/price/causal), location. Extract quotes verbatim for exact-words comparison.
**Gate**: Every checkable assertion has a claim ID. Sweep the document twice.
### Phase 2: VERIFY
Work claim by claim.
…
Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
