At a glance
Breaks a research question into two to five facets and sends parallel document-specialist agents to search the web and documentation, then merges the results.
- Works in 3 steps: Facet Decomposition → Parallel Agent Invocation → Synthesis Output Format
- Comparing two libraries or tools before choosing one
- SKILL.md covers Usage, Protocol and Configuration
- Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
What it does
Give it a topic or question and it splits the work into between two and five independent search facets. One document-specialist agent per facet is started through the Task tool, all in parallel, and each is told to search with WebSearch and WebFetch for relevant material on its own slice of the question.
Once the agents report back, the results are combined into a single write-up titled External Context, with a Key Findings section. The skill runs only when you call it by name with the /oh-my-claudecode:external-context command, there is no keyword trigger, and no more than five agents run at the same time.
When your agent uses it
- Comparing two libraries or tools before choosing one
- Collecting official documentation on one topic from several angles at once
- Researching best practices that span more than one area, such as security and performance
Example prompts
- “/oh-my-claudecode:external-context How should refresh tokens be rotated in an Express API?”
- “Compare Drizzle and Prisma for a PostgreSQL project using the external context skill.”
- “Find the current recommended patterns for React Server Components.”
Requirements
- The oh-my-claudecode plugin with its document-specialist agent
- Web search and fetch access for the agents
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 454bae0. 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 (its code samples are markdown).
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
External Context Research loads about 545 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 28 tokens; SKILL.md has 80 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.

External Context Skill
Fetch external documentation, references, and context for a query. Decomposes into 2-5 facets and spawns parallel document-specialist Claude agents.
Usage
/oh-my-claudecode:external-context <topic or question>Examples
/oh-my-claudecode:external-context What are the best practices for JWT token rotation in Node.js?
/oh-my-claudecode:external-context Compare Prisma vs Drizzle ORM for PostgreSQL
/oh-my-claudecode:external-context Latest React Server Components patterns and conventionsProtocol
Step 1: Facet Decomposition
Given a query, decompose into 2-5 independent search facets:
## Search Decomposition
**Query:** <original query>
### Facet 1: <facet-name>
- **Search focus:** What to search for
- **Sources:** Official docs, GitHub, blogs, etc.
### Facet 2: <facet-name>
...Step 2: Parallel Agent Invocation
Fire independent facets in parallel via Task tool:
Task(subagent_type="oh-my-claudecode:document-specialist", model="sonnet", prompt="Search for: <facet 1 description>. Use WebSearch and WebFetch to find official documentation and examples. Cite all sources with URLs.")
Task(subagent_type="oh-my-claudecode:document-specialist", model="sonnet", prompt="Search for: <facet 2 description>. Use WebSearch and WebFetch to find official documentation and examples. Cite all sources with URLs.")Maximum 5 parallel document-specialist agents.
Step 3: Synthesis Output Format
Present synthesized results in this format:
## External Context: <query>
### Key Findings
1. **<finding>** - Source: [title](url)
2. **<finding>** - Source: [title](url)
### Detailed Results
#### Facet 1: <name>
<aggregated findings with citations>
#### Facet 2: <name>
<aggregated findings with citations>
### Sources
- [Source 1](url)
- [Source 2](url)Configuration
- Maximum 5 parallel document-specialist agents
- No magic keyword trigger - explicit invocation only

Questions about External Context Research
What does External Context Research do?
Breaks a research question into two to five facets and sends parallel document-specialist agents to search the web and documentation, then merges the results. Give it a topic or question and it splits the work into between two and five independent search facets. One document-specialist agent per facet is started through the Task tool, all in parallel, and each is told to search with WebSearch and WebFetch for relevant material on its own slice of the question.
When should I use External Context Research?
External Context Research fits situations like: comparing two libraries or tools before choosing one; collecting official documentation on one topic from several angles at once; researching best practices that span more than one area, such as security and performance.
How do I install External Context Research in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add Yeachan-Heo/oh-my-claudecode --skill external-context -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/external-context in Yeachan-Heo/oh-my-claudecode) into .claude/skills/external-context in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install External Context Research in Codex?
Run `npx skills add Yeachan-Heo/oh-my-claudecode --skill external-context -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/external-context in Yeachan-Heo/oh-my-claudecode) into .agents/skills/external-context in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Can I use External Context Research in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add Yeachan-Heo/oh-my-claudecode --skill external-context -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/external-context, .gemini/skills/external-context, .github/skills/external-context and .opencode/skills/external-context in your project.
What does External Context Research need to run?
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: External Context Research is instructions for the agent only. Our summary lists: The oh-my-claudecode plugin with its document-specialist agent; Web search and fetch access for the agents.
Does External Context Research access the network?
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is External Context Research safe to install?
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.
What licence does External Context Research use?
External Context Research is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
How many tokens does External Context Research use?
About 545 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2.2k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
