Research

Custom Hypothesis strategy patterns for property-based testing. Activated when designing test data generators or property tests.

Build step-by-step plans grounded in evidence and research. Use when the user asks for a plan, roadmap, steps, or strategy for code, data, or pipeline work.

OpenTelemetry Demo system architecture reference for debugging service dependencies, port conflicts, memory issues, telemetry gaps, and performance problems. Use when analyzing failures, understanding service topology, troubleshooting communication issues, or investigating system bottlenecks in the OTel demo environment.

Generate and edit images using Google's Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image) API. Use when the user asks to generate, create, edit, modify, change, alter, or update images. Also use when user references an existing image file and asks to modify it in any way (e.g., "modify this image", "change the background", "replace X with Y"). Supports both text-to-image generation and image-to-image editing with configurable resolution (1K default, 2K, or 4K for high resolution). DO NOT read the image file first - use this skill directly with the --input-image parameter.

Design and conduct user research to understand needs, behaviors, and experiences. Use when user wants "journey mapping", "user interviews", "survey design", "usability testing", "user research", "customer discovery", "card sorting", "information architecture", "accessibility audit", "design critique", "prototype testing", "requirements gathering", "discovery phase", "validation phase", "research planning", or needs to understand users deeply.

Gather user design preferences before building UI. Use when: starting a project with visual interface (Web App, Mobile, Browser Extension). Triggers: "design preferences", "visual style", "choose theme", "design step".

Analyze completed experiments and craft executive-ready summaries with insights and recommendations.

Detects null pointer dereference vulnerabilities by identifying unchecked pointer usage and missing validation. Use when analyzing pointer operations, input validation, or investigating crash vulnerabilities.

Code review framework and criteria. References security-sentinel for security checks. Use when performing code reviews or defining review standards.

Synchronized documentation updates across CLAUDE.md, README.md, .claude/CLAUDE.md, and deployment checklist to ensure consistency. Use when adding new architecture documents, analysis documents, or critical reference documents.

Research Godot source code to prepare critical implementation notes for upcoming phases. Use before implementing phases to avoid debugging sessions and discover Godot quirks upfront.

Query the ragsharp code graph for declarations, references, callers, callees, dependencies, and line-number evidence. Triggers: find usages, where defined, callers, callees, dependency path, project deps, type hierarchy, line numbers, evidence.

Quick access to up-to-date library documentation using MCP. Use this skill when you need to reference official documentation for libraries, frameworks, or APIs. Leverages the context7 MCP server to fetch current docs for React, Next.js, Vue, MongoDB, Supabase, and hundreds of other libraries. Complements the documentation-maintainer agent.

Real-time web search using Exa AI. Use when you need current information, fact-checking, researching unfamiliar topics, or finding documentation. Triggers on requests mentioning search, lookup, find online, current information, or research.

Shared resource library for Google integration skills. DO NOT load directly - provides common references (setup, API docs, error handling, authentication) and scripts used by gmail, google-docs, google-sheets, google-calendar, and future Google skills.

Validate POD niches using deterministic Etsy competition, trends, and brand cues to return a binary GO/SKIP decision.

Extract and capture screenshots of specific UI elements mentioned in QA test procedures. Use when creating visual references for test steps to show exactly what buttons, fields, and components look like.

Create and maintain TYPO3 extension documentation following official TYPO3 13.x standards. Use when creating/editing Documentation/*.rst files or README.md, using TYPO3 directives (confval, versionadded, card-grid), rendering docs locally, or deploying to docs.typo3.org. By Netresearch.

This skill should be used when initializing a new bioinformatics research project, checking project status, updating project phase, or getting research best practices guidance. Triggered by requests like "initialize project", "check status", "update phase", or "research best practices".

Comprehensive industry research skill providing methodologies, frameworks, and best practices for analyzing industry trends, key companies, market dynamics, and industry-specific developments across consumer, tech, healthcare, and finance sectors
