analyst-research
End-to-end research workflow skill for investment analysts and policy researchers. Three scope modes the user picks at trigger time — light (4-5 page decision memo, ~15 min, 0 charts), medium (12-15 page topic brief, ~1 h, 6-10 charts), heavy (flagship report 30-40 pages / 15k+ words, ~2-3 h, 25-35+ charts, multi-stage workflow, multi-LLM, PDF + Word + WeChat + HTML derivations). Reports default to English; the AI replies in the user's chat language. Battle-tested on real macro/policy/equity reports (e.g. Saudi Vision 2030 deep-dive). Triggers when user types /analyst-research, /flagship-resea

Where does this skill come from?
From genli-ai/market-research-skills, a repository with 57 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
