# Research

Hand off the reading, get findings saved in your repo

## What this does

You have a question that deserves proper answers, but the reading would eat most of your day. This does the digging for you, checking against primary sources you can trust. What it finds gets written down as a Markdown file inside your repo. Reach for it any time research needs doing but does not have to be done by you.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Research a topic against sources I can trust
- Gather docs and API facts for me
- Save the findings as a Markdown file in my repo

A scan is named by the exact content it read, not by a version number. A different version is a different artifact, and nothing here applies to a version AIR has not scanned.

## About Research

Some questions deserve more than a quick guess. When you want a topic properly researched, or facts gathered from docs and APIs, hand the question over instead of doing the digging yourself.

The investigation goes against high-trust primary sources, so what comes back has something solid underneath it.

When the work is done, the findings are captured as a Markdown file in the repo, so the answer stays with your project instead of fading after the fact. Use it whenever reading legwork is something you would happily give to a background agent.

## Questions

### Is Research safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of Research and flagged nothing. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit 885e2ca4d842, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/research.

### How do I install Research?

Open https://airmarket.ai/app/research on Air Market and use the install action: Air Market hands Claude a prompt naming this exact skill, and Claude sets it up. Source, pinned to the exact commit this listing describes: https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/tree/885e2ca4d842d139e9aef4e48d366c63cb1b8013/skills/engineering/research. Install from that link, not the branch.
