Web research for fiction — primary sources, reference works, cultural detail, domain expertise, and community discussion.
Why this score
This repo hosts 22 subagents, so its 526 stars are split between them (about 24 each) for scoring.
Popularity score: 63/100 from public GitHub signals only. It shows how widely used and maintained this is, not how well it works. Not included yet: the fake-star check. The security scan is shown separately and doesn't change the score. How we rank

Security
Scanned Oct 22, 2026 at commit fec5020a91dd, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.
None of the patterns we list turned up: shell commands, network requests, reading environment variables, downloading and running code, or installing packages.
A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
