updating-knowledge skillA

updating-knowledge is agent-read markdown (skill) from oaustegard/claude-skills: Systematic research methodology for building comprehensive, current knowledge on any topic. Requires web_search tool. Use when questions require thorough investigation, recent developments post-cutoff, synthesis across multiple sources, or when Claude's knowledge may be outdated or incomplete. Triggered by "Research", "Investigate", "What's current on", "Latest info on", complex queries needing validation, or technical topics with recent changes..

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.
