Research skills

Browse reusable Agent Skills, each with a clear purpose and practical guidance.

hum-source-criticism

Evaluate source credibility using primary/secondary classification, internal/external criticism, triangulation, and misinformation detection. Use this skill when the user needs to assess whether information is trustworthy, evaluate research sources, fact-check claims, or detect misinformation — even if they say 'can I trust this source', 'is this real', 'how reliable is this data', or 'fact-check this for me'.

stat-causal-inference

Apply causal inference methods — counterfactual framework, instrumental variables, propensity score matching, and difference-in-differences — to estimate causal effects from observational data. Use this skill when the user needs to determine if X caused Y from non-experimental data, evaluate program/policy impact without a randomized trial, or control for confounders — even if they say 'did this change cause the improvement', 'how do we measure the impact without an experiment', or 'is this correlation or causation'.

stat-hypothesis-testing

Conduct statistical hypothesis testing including null/alternative hypothesis formulation, p-values, Type I/II errors, and test statistic selection. Use this skill when the user needs to determine whether a result is statistically significant, choose the right statistical test, interpret p-values correctly, or evaluate research findings — even if they say 'is this result significant', 'which statistical test should I use', or 'what does this p-value mean'.

tw-manufacturing

Analyze Taiwan's manufacturing industry structure including semiconductor, electronics, machinery, and petrochemical sectors. Use this skill when the user needs to understand Taiwan's industrial landscape, evaluate manufacturing sector opportunities, assess supply chain positioning, or contextualize Taiwan in global manufacturing — even if they say 'Taiwan manufacturing overview', 'semiconductor supply chain', 'what does Taiwan make', or 'industrial analysis of Taiwan'.

grad-ant

Apply Actor-Network Theory (Latour, Callon) to trace how human and non-human actors (actants) form networks through translation processes. Use this skill when the user needs to map sociotechnical assemblages, analyze how innovations stabilize or fail through network-building, trace the four moments of translation (problematization, interessement, enrollment, mobilization), or when they ask 'how did this technology become accepted', 'who and what holds this network together', or 'why did this innovation fail to gain traction'.

grad-panel-data

Apply panel data analysis with fixed effects, random effects, and dynamic GMM to exploit longitudinal variation and control for unobserved heterogeneity. Use this skill when the user has repeated observations over time for multiple entities, needs to choose between FE and RE via Hausman test, or when they ask 'how do I control for firm-specific effects', 'fixed or random effects', or 'how to handle endogeneity in panels'.
