Research

Explore external reference source code to understand implementations, draw inspiration, debug issues, or answer questions. Use when exploring repos like InstantDB, Trigger.dev, Vercel AI SDK, HeroUI Native, or any external codebase. Handles two modes - "inspiration" (adaptive, translating concepts to user's stack) or "understanding" (direct, definitive answers about the source). Always cite file:line references.

Generate and edit images using the Gemini API (Nano Banana Pro). Use this skill when creating images from text prompts, editing existing images, applying style transfers, generating logos with text, creating stickers, product mockups, or any image generation/manipulation task. Supports text-to-image, image editing, multi-turn refinement, and composition from multiple reference images.

Complete command reference for the ClickUp Framework CLI (cum) with all shortcuts, options, examples, and usage patterns

Manages a structured knowledge base of patterns, troubleshooting guides, best practices, and workflows. Activates when discovering reusable insights, solving technical problems, or establishing new standards. Records knowledge in categorized files for future reference without bloating global CLAUDE.md.

Synthesize research, data, and insights to create a rich, actionable buyer persona with demographics, psychographics, jobs-to-be-done, pain points, motivations, buying journey, and channel preferences. Use when the user needs to understand their target customer deeply or create a customer persona for marketing strategy.

Conduct a quarterly review of your overall research mission and direction. This is a user-level review stored in ~/.researchAssistant/. Use when the user types /quarterly_review, every 3 months, after major project milestones, or when questioning research direction.

Shared resource library for Beam AI integration skills. DO NOT load directly - provides common references (setup, API docs, error handling, authentication) and scripts used by beam-connect and individual Beam skills.

Project type definitions with type-specific questions, patterns, and stacks.Use when: determining project architecture, asking type-specific questions.Referenced by: idea-validation, brainstorming, /ship command.

This skill should be used when users need to translate technical documents, API documentation, academic papers, or any technical content while preserving technical accuracy and terminology. It specializes in maintaining technical rigor while ensuring readability in the target language.

Systematic fact-checking, source verification, and quality assurance for competitive research deliverables. This skill ONLY activates when explicitly requested - it does not auto-trigger. Use this skill when you explicitly ask to review competitive research, fact-check claims, verify sources, validate consistency, or assess quality of completed analysis documents. Example requests that activate this skill "review this competitive analysis", "fact-check these findings", "verify the sources", "quality check this report", "are these claims accurate", or "validate this analysis".

Storybook CSF3 story authoring methodology for UI component catalogs.Prioritizes visual showcase patterns over exhaustive argTypes enumeration.Reference for creating scannable, maintainable component documentation.

Add Better Auth signup/signin, personalize chapter content, and persist user preferences. Use when implementing authentication, user sessions, or personalized content delivery.

Generate comprehensive Commercial & Industrial (C&I) loan credit memos for banking demos. Interviews bankers, gathers data from Morningstar/S&P/Aiera/LSEG, handles file uploads, tracks citations, and produces standardized credit approval documents. Use when a banker needs to create a credit memo for a C&I loan application.

Assists authors in researching topics, verifying facts, and ensuring accuracy in their writing. Particularly useful for historical fiction, non-fiction, science fiction, and any genre requiring real-world accuracy. Use when the user needs help with research or fact-checking.

Interact with the Journal API to manage projects, documents, tasks, and workspaces. Use when the user mentions journal, projects, documents, tasks, workspaces, task identifiers like JO-123, or needs to access Journal data.

Automated hypothesis generation and testing using large language models. Use this skill when generating scientific hypotheses from datasets, combining literature insights with empirical data, testing hypotheses against observational data, or conducting systematic hypothesis exploration for research discovery in domains like deception detection, AI content detection, mental health analysis, or other empirical research tasks.

CLI tool (arxivterminal) for fetching, searching, and managing arXiv papers locally. Use when working with arXiv papers using the arxivterminal command - fetching new papers by category, searching the local database, viewing papers from specific dates, or managing the local paper database.

Create epistemically honest Source of Truth documents that pass Clarity Gate verification. Use when consolidating research, documenting project state, creating verification baselines, or building authoritative references. Triggers on "create source of truth", "document verified state", "consolidate research", "create verification baseline", "build authoritative reference".

Expert agent architect that creates new skills and agents for unfamiliar technologies. Has unfettered documentation access. Auto-creates skills at threshold (2+ uses).TRIGGERS - Keywords: create skill, create agent, new skill, new agent, skill creation, agent creation, unfamiliar technology, unknown framework, no specialist, missing skill, need expert, technology specialist, extend capabilities.TRIGGERS - Phrases: "create a skill for", "make an agent for", "need a specialist", "don't have a skill for", "unfamiliar with this tech", "research and create", "add support for", "extend to handle".TRIGGERS - Automatic: New technology encountered 2+ times without existing skill, learning agent proposes new agent, repeated documentation lookups for same technology.
