Which sources does the skill use for research?

It primarily uses GitHub via Octocode MCP and library documentation via Context7 MCP, with WebFetch as a final fallback if specialized tools are unavailable.

Can this skill search my local files?

No, this skill is strictly for external research. Local codebase searches are handled by standard tools like Grep, Glob, and Read.

Why is research conducted before the planning phase?

Researching first informs the planning agent, ensuring the AI chooses the correct architectural patterns and avoids deprecated practices before any code is written.

What is the Iron Law of this skill?

The Iron Law mandates that external research should only occur when there is a clear AI knowledge gap or an explicit user request, preventing unnecessary latency and token usage.

학습 및 문서화

Conducts deep external research across GitHub repositories and official library documentation to bridge AI knowledge gaps for modern technologies.

This skill empowers Claude to proactively investigate external code patterns, best practices, and API documentation from GitHub and specialized library indexes. By utilizing tools like Octocode and Context7, it ensures that implementation plans are grounded in real-world examples and the latest releases, particularly for technologies emerging after the AI's training cutoff. It prioritizes efficiency by researching only when necessary and providing structured summaries that inform planning and debugging phases without cluttering the local workspace.
