research skillA
research is agent-read markdown (skill) from harnessprotocol/harness-kit: Use when user invokes /research command with any source — URL, GitHub repo, YouTube video, podcast, Reddit post, academic paper, documentation page, product site, local file, or empty. Processes and indexes research materials with raw source preservation and topic-level synthesis coalescing. Do NOT use for quick factual questions — use /explain instead..
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.
How to install
mdr add harnessprotocol/harness-kit/research@git:20260703.b197878mdr add harnessprotocol/harness-kit/research@sha256:e7aca11991444c60Pin 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.
