Comprehensive research, analysis, and content extraction system. USE WHEN user says 'research' (ANY form - this is the MANDATORY trigger), 'do research', 'extensive research', 'quick research', 'minor research', 'research this', 'find information', 'investigate', 'extract wisdom', 'extract alpha', 'analyze content', 'can't get this content', 'use fabric', OR requests any web/content research. Supports three research modes (quick/standard/extensive), deep content analysis, intelligent retrieval, and 242+ Fabric patterns. NOTE: For due diligence, OSINT, or background checks, use OSINT skill instead.

⚠️ MANDATORY TRIGGER
When user says "research" (in any form), ALWAYS invoke this skill.
User Says
Action
"research" / "do research" / "research this"
→ Standard mode (3 agents)
"quick research" / "minor research"
→ Quick mode (1 agent)
"extensive research" / "deep research"
→ Extensive mode (12 agents)
"Research" alone = Standard mode. No exceptions.
Customization
Before executing, check for user customizations at:~/.claude/skills/CORE/USER/SKILLCUSTOMIZATIONS/Research/
If this directory exists, load and apply any PREFERENCES.md, configurations, or resources found there. These override default behavior. If the directory does not exist, proceed with skill defaults.
🚨 MANDATORY: Voice Notification (REQUIRED BEFORE ANY ACTION)
You MUST send this notification BEFORE doing anything else when this skill is invoked.
Send voice notification:
curl -s -X POST http://localhost:8888/notify \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"message": "Running the WORKFLOWNAME workflow in the Research skill to ACTION"}' \
> /dev/null 2>&1 &
Output text notification:
Running the **WorkflowName** workflow in the **Research** skill to ACTION...
This is not optional. Execute this curl command immediately upon skill invocation.
Research Skill
Comprehensive research, analysis, and content extraction system.
MANDATORY: URL Verification
READ:UrlVerificationProtocol.md - Every URL must be verified before delivery.
Research agents hallucinate URLs. A single broken link is a catastrophic failure.
Workflow Routing
Route to the appropriate workflow based on the request.
CRITICAL: For due diligence, company/person background checks, or vetting -> INVOKE OSINT SKILL INSTEAD
Research Modes (Primary Workflows)
Quick/minor research (1 Perplexity, 1 query) -> Workflows/QuickResearch.md
Standard research - DEFAULT (3 agents: Perplexity + Claude + Gemini) -> Workflows/StandardResearch.md
Extensive research (4 types x 3 threads = 12 agents) -> Workflows/ExtensiveResearch.md
Deep Content Analysis
Extract alpha / deep analysis / highest-alpha insights -> Workflows/ExtractAlpha.md
