researchA skill your agent uses when the user asks you to research, compare, fact-check or find current information, and the answer should come with sources.
Research is an agent skill from katipally/openlive. Use when the user asks you to research, compare, fact-check or find current information, and the answer should come with sources.
Its SKILL.md is about 830 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Media & Creative, covering Fact-checking and source verification and Text to speech and voice. The repository describes itself as: Opensource, on-device voice + vision layer for AI agents. Bring any model or coding agent; the whole speech loop (VAD, STT, TTS, barge-in) runs locally. An open alternative to… The licence is Apache-2.0.
6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c9121eb. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
frame.workFrom URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Research loads about 827 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 35 tokens; SKILL.md has 535 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

.claude/skills/research/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder).Good research answers the question asked, from sources that can be checked, and says plainly what is still uncertain.
delegate(task): hands one task to OpenLive's research assistant, who
has web_search and fetch_url and reports back a short summary. It works
while you keep talking and takes a few search steps at most, so give it one
focused question per call.web_search and fetch_url: if these are in your own tool list, call
them directly instead of delegating. A coding agent may also have its own
web tools; use whichever you have.If you have none of these, say you cannot look it up right now and answer only from what you are sure of, marked as such.
Before searching, break the request into the few facts that decide the answer. "Which laptop should I buy" becomes: the models in their budget, battery life measured by reviewers, current prices. Two to four focused questions beat one vague one.
Tell the user in one short line what you are checking, then start.
The assistant returns plain sentences and leaves links out unless asked. So write each delegated task to ask for them:
Find the current price of the Framework Laptop 13 in the US, from the official store, with the source URL.
Good task lines name: the exact fact, the time frame ("as of this month"), the kind of source you want (official site, the paper, the filing, a named outlet), and "with source URLs".
With web_search yourself: search, pick the most authoritative results, then
fetch_url them to read the page itself. Search highlights are a lead, not a
source.
In order:
Check the date. For anything that changes (prices, versions, schedules, office holders, scores), an old page is a wrong answer.
If a step comes back empty or vague, rephrase once (other words, a narrower question, the official site's name). Do not repeat the same task.
End with what you could not confirm, if anything: "I could not find a 2026 figure; the latest is from March 2025." Never fill a gap with a guess dressed as a fact. "I don't know yet" is a fine answer, and better than a confident wrong one.

A skill your agent uses when the user asks you to research, compare, fact-check or find current information, and the answer should come with sources. Research is an agent skill from katipally/openlive. Use when the user asks you to research, compare, fact-check or find current information, and the answer should come with sources.
Research fits situations like: the user asks you to research; find current information; the answer should come with sources.
Run `npx skills add katipally/openlive --skill research -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (services/agent/skills/research in katipally/openlive) into .claude/skills/research in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add katipally/openlive --skill research -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (services/agent/skills/research in katipally/openlive) into .agents/skills/research in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add katipally/openlive --skill research -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/research, .gemini/skills/research, .github/skills/research and .opencode/skills/research in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Research is instructions for the agent only.
SKILL.md names 1 domain. As links in the text: frame.work. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Research is published under the Apache-2.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 827 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 3.3k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Research: Press Conference Revision Evidence Bound (lensback940701/Evidence-Bound-Press-Conference-Revision-Skill, 255 stars), Podcast Generation (bytedance/deer-flow, 83k stars), Blog Audio (AgriciDaniel/claude-blog, 2.3k stars) and Video Translator (shang-zhu/violin, 1.1k stars).
