AnchoredAutoResearch — PLAN Alias
Use this skill when the user invokes $research:plan in Codex.
Optional flags:
--effort low|middle|high controls ideation breadth. Default is low
(current behavior). See ### Effort levels in
../research/references/phase-protocol.md for the per-level protocol.
Reject any other value with: "unknown effort level — use low, middle,
or high".--search N sets the literature discover-pool size when this
invocation triggers /research:context search <topic>. Integer in
[10, 500]; clamped. Default by effort: low ignores it, middle
honors if passed, high defaults to N=200. Deep-read count is
min(30, N // 5). See knowledge-sources.md "Search mode" for the
two-tier protocol. Reject non-integer values with: "--search must
be a positive integer in 10..500".
Follow the same workflow as the research-plan skill:
- Read
AGENTS.md
- Read
RSD.md
- Read
context/SOURCES.md if it exists
- Parse
--effort and --search flags if present and branch on them
per the ### Effort levels section in
../research/references/phase-protocol.md (LOW ignores --search,
MIDDLE honors if passed, HIGH defaults to --search 200)
- Follow the PLAN section in
../research/references/phase-protocol.md
- Follow
../research/references/knowledge-sources.md
- Write the PLAN entry (including
Effort level: and
Alternatives considered: fields), compile, commit, and stop for human
approval
