Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Research Gather external context on the following topic. **Prioritize the most recent information available.** Start with the current year, then work backward only as needed. ## Persona If a persona or role is specified, such as "as a financial analyst", adopt that expertise lens: - Prioritize sources that persona would trust - Focus on metrics and frameworks that persona uses - Surface information that persona would consider essential - Use terminology natural to that domain ## Focus - Industry trends and where things are heading - Best practices and common approaches - Counter examples and failures worth learning from - Recent developments: prioritize current year sources, then last 12 months. Older material only if foundational. - Credible sources: prefer primary sources, industry reports, and established publications over blog posts and aggregators - **Comparative analysis**: When multiple approaches or solutions exist, compare them directly. Do not present options in isolation. Do not evaluate or recommend yet. The goal is to build a foundation of evidence and context for later analysis. Be thorough but concise. Flag where evidence is thin or conflicting. ## Source Resilienc

What does the research skill do?
Gather external context on a topic. Use when you need industry trends, best practices, evidence base, and recent developments before analysis.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill research-cyberswat-claude-plugin-analys --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 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.
