Research

Research is a Web research & fact-checking skill for AI agents, published by danielmiessler in the LifeOS repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates Research C (77/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Multi-agent web research with mandatory URL verification, confidence-tagged output, and four depth modes (quick to deep investigation). USE WHEN research, do research, quick research, extensive research, deep investigation, find information, investigate, extract alpha, analyze content, retrieve content, AI trends, enhance content, extract knowledge, web scraping, YouTube extraction, map landscape, competitive analysis, find it, find this, find this product, identify this, what is this, what's that thing, track down, locate, help me find, I can't find X online, can't find it online, source this — never substitute raw WebSearch/WebFetch for a multi-source find/identify/investigate request. NOT FOR people/company/entity deep background (use _OSINT), academic papers (use ArXiv), JSON entity extraction (use _PARSER), or content-adaptive wisdom extraction (use ExtractWisdom).

Unproven: rated by static analysis only, not yet compared head-to-head.

Not launch-quality. It is graded C with a clean safety verdict, but our quality filters exclude it: it is a near-duplicate variant of another skill. So it is not in our launch-quality set, the skills our MCP server searches and recommends. How launch-quality is decided

Our two independent classifiers differ on this skill's category, so treat the placement as provisional.
