research
research is a Web research & fact-checking skill for AI agents, published by pvillega in the claude-templates repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates research D (59/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.
Use ONLY when the user explicitly requests multi-source research synthesis with citations — e.g., "/ct:research X", "research X in depth with citations", "investigate Y across authoritative sources", "compare approaches and cite sources". Applies systematic methodology with multi-hop reasoning and evidence-based synthesis. DO NOT trigger for: simple factual questions, single-source lookups, casual "research this" one-liners, codebase exploration, or informal fact-finding. For those, use WebSearch / tavily-cli / WebFetch directly.
