IterativeDepthStructured multi-angle exploration running 2-8 sequential passes over the same problem, each through a different scientific lens, to surface hidden requirements and edge cases invisible from one angle; each pass yields new ISC criteria. USE WHEN iterative depth, explore deeper, multi-angle analysis, surface hidden requirements, blind spot check, what am I missing. NOT FOR scope/zoom analysis (use ApertureOscillation).0 installs VitalsmacOS system performance diagnostics — see how the machine is running and what's slowing it down: CPU/GPU/memory/energy hogs, thermal throttling, memory and swap pressure, disk usage, Spotlight indexing, launchd/startup load, via a deterministic read-only CLI with known-process interpretation (kernel_task, WindowServer, mds_stores). USE WHEN mac slow, system slow, what's slowing down my mac, computer is slow, what's eating CPU, CPU usage, GPU usage, what's using the GPU, memory pressure, RAM usage, swap, runaway process, fans loud, mac running hot, thermal throttling, system health, check my mac, how's my system running, top processes, energy hogs, activity monitor, startup items, launch agents load, system taxed. NOT FOR network/wifi diagnostics, website or deployed-app health monitoring, or security scanning.0 installs DaemonManage the public daemon profile — a digital representation of what you're working on. DaemonAggregator reads LifeOS sources (TELOS, KNOWLEDGE, PROJECTS, MEMORY/WORK, identity) → daemon-data.json. SecurityFilter strips names/paths/credentials via deterministic patterns (NOT LLM). Workflows: UpdateDaemon, ReadDaemon, PreviewDaemon, DeployDaemon. USE WHEN daemon, update daemon, daemon profile, deploy daemon, preview daemon, read daemon, public profile, digital presence. NOT FOR LifeOS system management.0 installs NoveltyEvolutionary explanation-discovery engine for hard-to-vary causal theories of unknown phenomena. USE WHEN develop a new theory, explain a mystery, solve an explanatory gap, discover a mechanism, consciousness, origin, or scientific breakthrough. Also use for multi-cycle creative exploration. NOT FOR a single-pass divergent brainstorm (use BeCreative) or delivery validation alone (use Evals).0 installs CouncilMulti-agent collaborative debate producing visible round-by-round transcripts with real intellectual friction — members are topic-briefed custom agents, run as a 3-round DEBATE or a 1-round QUICK check, to find the best path. USE WHEN council, debate, multiple perspectives, weigh options, deliberate, get different views, what would experts say, pros and cons. NOT FOR pure adversarial attack (use RedTeam).0 installs SalesTransforms product documentation into sales-ready packages — a story explanation, charcoal gestural sketch art, and talking points — via a narrative-arc pipeline. USE WHEN sales, proposal, pitch deck, value proposition, sales narrative, sales deck, sales package, turn this into a pitch, create a sales story, sales materials, product pitch, transform docs to sales, sales script. NOT FOR Hormozi $100M frameworks, value equation, irresistible offer, or VOC mining, standalone diagrams or illustrations (use Art), or platform social posts.0 installs

FirstPrinciplesPhysics-based reasoning framework (Musk methodology) that deconstructs a problem to irreducible fundamental truths, classifies every element as hard constraint, soft constraint, or assumption, then reconstructs the optimal solution from fundamentals alone. USE WHEN first principles, fundamental truths, challenge assumptions, real constraint, rebuild from scratch, start over, physics first, question everything, reasoning by analogy. NOT FOR structural feedback loops (use SystemsThinking).2 installs WebdesignDesign and integrate web interfaces via three paths: DirectDesign (write design inline with Anthropic frontend-design philosophy — the default workhorse), native /design + /design-sync Claude Code commands (preferred for code integration and design-system sync), or ClaudeDesign (drive claude.ai/design through Interceptor — experimental visual-review fallback). USE WHEN web design, UI design, create prototype, design system, design sync, redesign site, mockup, landing page, dashboard design, design-to-code, frontend design, polish UI, design audit, brutalist/editorial/retro UI. NOT FOR illustrations/logos (use Art) or video (use Remotion).1 installs DetectAIDetects AI-generated writing four ways — a heuristic audit against a catalog of known AI patterns, deterministic statistical signals (n-gram entropy, burstiness, repetition, stylometry — features never verdicts), an empirical Pangram score calibrated against known-human baselines, and a keyless scan for watermark and steganography signatures (invisible characters, homoglyphs, bidi, odd whitespace) in the bytes. USE WHEN detect AI writing, is this AI, AI detection, AI detector, did an AI write this, does this sound like AI, AI writing score, pangram, scan for AI tells, flag AI patterns, AI-isms, statistical AI signals, burstiness, text entropy, is this watermarked, detect watermark, steganography, zero-width chars, hidden characters, invisible unicode, compare drafts for AI-ness. NOT FOR rewriting prose to strip AI patterns (use a voice/authoring skill), plagiarism detection, detecting AI-generated images/video/code, or judging whether writing is any good.1 installs ThreatModelDefensive threat modeling and risk management for your own estate — map where sensitive data lives across your asset graph, run compromise scenarios (what a hacked asset exposes, its blast radius, how you'd respond), and maintain a persistent risk register with likelihood×impact scoring, owners, mitigations, and review cadence via a deterministic CLI. All real data stays in your private USER tree; this skill is code only. USE WHEN threat model, threat modeling, risk register, risk assessment, what if X got hacked, compromise scenario, blast radius, sensitive data map, where is our sensitive data, data classification, risk review, add a risk, accept a risk, security risk posture. NOT FOR active pentesting or exploitation (use an offensive-security skill), world-scale futures stress-testing of ideas (use WorldThreatModel), or executing incident response (use your incident-response runbooks — this skill plans them).0 installs OptimizeAutonomous optimization loop — hill-climb any target. Code with metrics, or skills/prompts/agents with LLM-as-judge. USE WHEN optimize, hill climb, improve metric, reduce latency, optimize skill, optimize prompt, eval mode.0 installs EvalsAssertion-first AI eval framework aligned to Anthropic's 'Demystifying evals for AI agents' — typed deterministic asserts + a forced-structured LLM judge over an input→assert case schema, pass^k/pass@k, capability vs regression suites, subscription-billed. USE WHEN eval, evaluate, benchmark, regression test, assertion, assert, llm-rubric, judge, pass@k, pass^k, grade output, compare prompts/models, test agent. NOT FOR scientific-method framing (use Science), property/mutation testing of code (use Hardening), or live UI verification (use Interceptor).0 installs

Frequently asked questions about Research

What does the Research skill do?

How do I install the Research skill?

Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install lifeos-research` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/lifeos-research/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.

Which AI tools does Research work with?

Research runs in Claude Code. It follows the open Agent Skills standard (SKILL.md), so the same skill works in every supported tool without modification.

Is the Research skill free?

Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.

How do I use Research after installing it?

In Claude Code, type `/lifeos-research` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.

Can I share the Research skill with my team?

Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
