Install
Skills CLI
npx skills add lingzhi227/agent-research-skills
Asks which skills and agents to install. Just one: npx skills add lingzhi227/agent-research-skills --skill algorithm-design — add -g for every project.
Claude Code
git clone https://github.com/lingzhi227/agent-research-skillscp -r "agent-research-skills/skills/algorithm-design" ~/.claude/skills/
Copies the algorithm-design skill into ~/.claude/skills/ for every project (use .claude/skills/ for one project). Repeat for the other skills listed below.
Plugin
/plugin marketplace add lingzhi227/agent-research-skills
Run inside Claude Code if the repository ships a plugin marketplace, then pick plugins from /plugin.
Skills can run code on your machine — read the SKILL.md first.
What it does
In the author's own words, from each skill's SKILL.md — showing the first 30 of 31 files.

Review before you install
A skill is a set of instructions and scripts your agent will follow, and it can run code on your machine. Read the SKILL.md and any scripts first — this listing is not a security review.
