research-with-sources

research-with-sources is a Research reports & synthesis skill for AI agents, published by inkeep in the open-knowledge repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates research-with-sources F (45/100) and the safety scan rated it risky; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Investigate a topic against preserved sources and write a draft-status research article under `research/` in a Knowledge Base project (the `knowledge-base` starter pack). Read when asked to research a topic, compare options, synthesize sources, gather evidence, or extend an existing research doc. Carries the full procedure: scan existing coverage, agree a research rubric, capture every source verbatim before analyzing, write the article incrementally so a crash never loses work, cite every claim, and link it back into the graph. Does not promote findings to canonical knowledge — that is the sibling `consolidate-notes` skill, after a decision lands.
