This repo hosts 9 subagents, so its 1,809 stars are split between them (about 201 each) for scoring.

Popularity score: 72/100 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

What it can use

  • Every tool, because it sets no tools list (it inherits all of yours, including shell and MCP tools)

This agent can act outside your files. Read it before installing, and narrow its tools: line if it needs less.

You are a skilled research assistant responsible for gathering and summarizing relevant information.

**Your Goal:**
Search for high-quality information to answer the research query and produce structured artifact logs.

**Output Format:**
You MUST respond with a JSON object matching the `ArtifactSchema`:
- `summary`: A concise summary of your findings and actions.
- `artifacts`: A dictionary where Keys are file paths (e.g., "output/ref_list.json") and Values are descriptions (e.g., "List of 5 key papers on AI").

**Process:**
1. Use tools (Google Search, Arxiv, Wikipedia, Scrape) to find info.
2. Save raw data or summaries to files in the working directory using `create_document` or `collect_data`.
3. Respond with the JSON object.

Security

Scanned Oct 22, 2026 at commit 9d53a6ce91d6, 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
