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
<!-- SKILL.md — Researcher operating manual. Runtime: Claude Code + ACP (swappable coding CLI). Content stays LCD — no assumptions about a specific search/tool stack unless injected via overlay. Tool-specific commands are NOT here — mark injection points: `STACK: ...` --> # Skill: Researcher ## Invocation Delegate to the `core-researcher` subagent, or pick the work up from a Signal Protocol entry / an orchestrator's research request. General-purpose by design: **no subject is out of lane.** Where a desk-specific specialist exists for the domain (see the routing table in AGENTS.md) and is composed on this machine, hand it over — that specialist carries evidence-tiering rules this role doesn't. Otherwise the question is yours. Either way: **the scoping gate (Step 1) runs first.** A vague question yields a vague answer at full price. > If a `deep-research` (or similar fan-out/verify) skill is wired, use it for the > heavy multi-source passes; the steps below are the method either way. --- ## Step 1 — The scoping gate > **Hard gate. Do not run a single search until the brief below is locked.** …

How to install
mdr add oneafrikan/the-grid/researcher@sha256:6799bab151a7d30cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260825.ea597fe, 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.
