What it does
Source Grounded Research Report is an agent skill from NeuroAIHub/BrainPilot. Research a bounded factual, documentation, API, or literature question from authoritative sources and save a self-contained Markdown report with claim-level citations. Use for reading-heavy evidence gathering, not experiment execution or data analysis.
Its SKILL.md is about 500 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 Knowledge Management, covering Deep research, Source-grounded notebooks and Data analysis. The repository describes itself as: BrainPilot: Automating Brain Discovery with Agentic Research. The licence is AGPL-3.0.
When your agent uses it
- Reading-heavy evidence gathering
- Not experiment execution
Example prompts
- “/source-grounded-research-report”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 93f6855. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
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.
Runs code
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.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Source Grounded Research Report loads about 503 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 71 tokens; SKILL.md has 225 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.
Safety
Auto-check passed
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.

- description
- Research a bounded factual, documentation, API, or literature question from authoritative sources and save a self-contained Markdown report with claim-level citations. Use for reading-heavy evidence gathering, not experiment execution or data analysis.
Source-Grounded Research Report
Define the bounded question and the claims the report must support. Match each claim to the source that owns or best synthesizes it: official documentation, versioned source code, specifications, or first-party APIs for implementation facts; original studies and official implementations for method details; official datasets or benchmark reports for benchmark facts; and rigorous reviews, meta-analyses, or authoritative guidelines for synthesis claims. Search snippets and unverified summaries are discovery leads, not final evidence.
Use literature-scout, api-librarian, or evidence-extractor for independent
reading slices. For a compact task, one child may research and write the report
with workspaceMode: "shared". For parallel research, collect the evidence
packets, then designate one shared-workspace child or yourself to synthesize the
canonical report. Retain child ids and collect every result before synthesis.
Save one self-contained Markdown report under docs/reports/ or the task's
explicit path. For every decision-relevant claim, record an inspectable source
and exact supporting location; distinguish direct evidence, synthesis, and
inference; reconcile contradictions; and mark unresolved claims unverified.
Supporting extracts may remain separate only when the report links them exactly.
Review the report before handoff. Send suspected errors, ambiguities, missing
support, or interpretation questions back to the report author with the exact
path and claim, and require a revision or an explicit unresolved limitation.
Return the canonical report path in complete_task; the completion reply is only
an orienting summary.
