Install targets
Install this skill in your agent workflow
Copy the registry command or an agent-specific install prompt for Codex, Claude Code, and Cursor.
OpenAgentSkill CLI
Use the registry command when your workflow supports the OpenAgentSkill installer.
$ npx skills add OpenNSWM-Lab/FAROSAgent resolve plan
Let an agent verify fit before installing.
The Resolve API returns the selected skill, alternatives, safety policy, audit notes, install target, and copy-paste prompt an agent can follow without scraping this page.

GPT Researcher
Run autonomous deep research over web and local sources
Deep Research
An AI-powered research assistant that performs iterative, deep research on any topic by combining search engines, web scraping, and large language models. The goal of this repo is to provide the simplest implementation of a deep research agent - e.g. an agent that can refine its research direction overtime and deep dive into a topic.
Overview
A blueprint-driven AutoResearch runtime for orchestrating AI research workflows from idea generation and experiments to paper writing and peer review.
Imported by the skill-only GitHub discovery pipeline because it matches agent skill, automation, domain workflow, RAG, document-processing, data, finance, security, or developer-tool signals. Protocol-server projects are excluded from automated imports.
