Universal SKILL.md catalog for research workflows: literature review, research design, project memory, manuscript writing, and cross-agent delegation for Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Cursor, OpenClaw, and generic AI clients.
README
A skill catalog that won't let you spend 6 months on a research gap that's already closed, isn't a real contribution, or isn't feasible. Every candidate thesis topic goes through a 3-gate decision dossier first — and the rest of the pipeline (literature → design → build → run → write → submit) only flows from candidates that pass.

What this is. A catalog of 17 Claude Code skills built around one
stubborn question most research-AI tools dodge: is this research gap
actually worth doing? The pipeline opens with a structured decision
dossier — three gates: open / contribution / feasibility — and
downstream stages (research design, manuscript drafting, reviewer
response) only fire on a candidate that clears all three. Built for graduate students, PhDs, postdocs, and
research support staff. Five plugins, one marketplace install — and
the same SKILL.md files load into Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Cursor,
Windsurf, Hermes, OpenClaw, and generic API clients too (see
§7 Compatibility).
For literature automation, the SKILL.md catalog and the executable
research-hub runtime are separate layers; see
docs/runtime-contract.md.
Optional harness extension. The 17-skill core is unchanged. Agent and harness builders can add the public
agent-collab-harnesspolicy/checkpoint layer; see the architecture and compatibility guide.
