oleafly-research-loop from oleafly/oleafly is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add oleafly/oleafly/oleafly-research-loop@v1.0.0

Pins v1.0.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Entry point for research writing in Oleafly. Load this first when the user says they are writing a paper, starting a literature review, drafting related work, checking citations, preparing figures, responding to reviewers, or getting a submission ready. It sets the project layout every other research skill honours, plans the work with update_todos, and names the exact skill to load at each stage of the loop.

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

# Oleafly Research Loop

This is the router for a whole research project. It does two jobs. It fixes the file layout that every other Oleafly research skill reads and writes, so a sweep done in one session is still findable three weeks later. And it tells you which skill to load for the stage you are actually in, so you do not improvise a procedure that already exists.

Load this skill when the work spans more than one step. For a single question ("what is the DOI for this paper") answer it directly and skip the loop.

## Step 1. Read the ground before planning

Do this once per session, in this order. It is cheap and it stops you from rebuilding state that already exists.

1. `list_notes` with `{}`. Earlier turns may have recorded the bibliography path, the venue, the citation style, or a naming convention. Notes beat guessing.
2. `list_files` with `{}`. Look for `research/`, `figures/`, `review/`, and any `.bib` file. This tells you whether the layout below already exists or has to be created.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add oleafly/oleafly/oleafly-research-loop@sha256:811288ea3269f9fe

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
