research
SkillFiles & storageYour AI gains a set of research and engineering skills for working with AI models, taken straight from a working engineer's own agent setup. Once added, it can approach AI model work using the same practices the author actually uses.
Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.
No other account needed.
Add the skill, then give your AI a research or engineering task involving AI models and it will draw on these practices.
Then ask your AI: use the research skill
What your AI can do with it
- Research AI models and how to work with them
- Apply engineering practices to AI model work
- Draw on skills from a working engineer's personal setup
- Handle both the research and engineering sides of AI-related tasks
What this skill tells your AI
The instructions your AI receives, as published by mattpocock/skills in skills/engineering/research/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.
Spin up a background agent to do the research, so you keep working while it reads.
Its job:
- Investigate the question against primary sources (official docs, source code, specs, first-party APIs), not a secondary write-up of them. Follow every claim back to the source that owns it.
- Write the findings to a single Markdown file, citing each claim's source.
- Save it where the repo already keeps such notes; match the existing convention, and if there is none, put it somewhere sensible and say where.
