Option 1: Ask Codex (Agentic) Tell Codex:
Fetch and follow instructions from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/poemswe/co-researcher/main/.codex/INSTALL.md
Option 2: Manual Setup
# 1. Clone this repo to ~/.codex/skills/co-researcher
# 2. Add hook to ~/.codex/AGENTS.md
# 3. Run:
~/.codex/skills/co-researcher/.codex/co-researcher-codex bootstrap
See .codex/INSTALL.md for details.
Option 1: Ask OpenCode (Agentic) Tell OpenCode:
Fetch and follow instructions from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/poemswe/co-researcher/main/.opencode/INSTALL.md
Option 2: Manual Setup
# 1. Clone this repo
# 2. Run the installer:

See .opencode/INSTALL.md for details.
The suite provides native research commands across all supported platforms:
| Feature | Command (Claude) | Slash (Gemini) | Skill (Codex) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Research Project | /research | /research | $research |
| Methodology | /methodology | /methodology | $methodology |
| Critical Analysis | /analyze | /analyze | $analyze |
| Bibliography | /bibliography | /bibliography | $bibliography |
| Synthesize | /synthesize | /synthesize | $synthesize |
| Peer Review | /review | /review | $review |
| Ethical Risk | /ethics | /ethics | $ethics |
| Grant Proposal | /grant | /grant | $grant |
The /research command features intelligent agent orchestration that automatically:
Interactive Mode (default - recommended):
/research "impact of social media on teenage mental health"
Review and approve the execution plan before agents run.
Auto Mode (for trusted workflows):
/research "climate change mitigation strategies" --auto
Executes the plan automatically without confirmation.
Plan-Only Mode (for review):
/research "AI ethics frameworks" --plan-only
Generates execution plan but doesn't run it.
# 1. Start research with orchestration
/research "effectiveness of remote work on productivity"
# The engine will:
# - literature-reviewer: Find recent studies on remote work outcomes
# - critical-analyzer: Evaluate methodology and bias in key studies
# - quant-analyst: Interpret effect sizes and statistical significance
# - hypothesis-explorer: Map variables (work location, productivity metrics, confounds)
# 2. Review generated plan and approve execution
# 3. Agents run in coordinated sequence
# 4. Receive integrated findings
Pre-configured agent combinations for common scenarios:
/research "topic" --template=quick # Fast literature scan
/research "topic" --template=rigorous # Full systematic review
/research "topic" --template=comprehensive # Deep multi-method analysis
The suite includes PhD-level research skills, each governed by Systemic Honesty principles.
