What it does

Autoresearch Curation is an agent skill from yibie/awesome-autoresearch. Curate and expand the awesome-autoresearch repository. Use when adding new autoresearch cases, collecting discussion evidence from X/Reddit/HN/blogs, promoting discussion items into main categories, refreshing README counts, or running periodic evidence sweeps.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.8k 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 Agent Workflows, covering Autonomous loops. It works with Reddit. The repository describes itself as: awesome autoresearch list.

When your agent uses it

  • Adding new autoresearch cases
  • Collecting discussion evidence from X/Reddit/HN/blogs
  • Promoting discussion items into main categories
  • Refreshing README counts

Example prompts

  • “/autoresearch-curation”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Search broadly, classify narrowly
  2. Keep X queries simple
  3. Chinese + English

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6f832d7. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • gh
    • python3
    • python
    • git

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use gh and git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Autoresearch Curation loads about 2.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 71 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,359 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~71
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.8k

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,359 words (~2,783 tokens).

“Use this skill to maintain awesome-autoresearch as a strict, high-signal list of direct autoresearch use cases.”
