What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the essential research steps required before implementing new features, ensuring thorough investigation and reducing redundant efforts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Open-Source Discovery: Automatically searches for relevant open-source libraries and solutions based on defined criteria (license, stars, recency).
  • Duplicate Check: Scans existing GitHub issues and pull requests to prevent re-inventing the wheel.
  • Make vs. Buy Analysis: Generates a structured comparison to decide whether to build a solution in-house or leverage an existing one.
  • Use Case: When a developer needs to add a new authentication module, this Skill can quickly find suitable OAuth libraries, check if similar features are already in development, and provide a clear recommendation on whether to build or buy.

Quick Start

Use the pre-work research skill to find open-source libraries for implementing a new user profile feature.
