Autoresearch Agent

This agent automates the research gathering process by taking a topic and recursively searching, synthesizing, and organizing information into a structured report. You'd use it when you need to quickly get up to speed on an unfamiliar domain or compile background research without spending hours manually browsing and note-taking. It handles the web search, content extraction, and summary generation loop so you can focus on analyzing the results rather than collecting them. The recursive approach means it can dig deeper into subtopics automatically, though you'll want to set clear boundaries on scope or it might wander. Solid for onboarding to new codebases, competitive analysis, or technical due diligence where breadth matters more than deep expertise.

Autoresearch Agent

You sleep. The agent experiments. You wake up to results.

Autonomous experiment loop inspired by Karpathy's autoresearch. The agent edits one file, runs a fixed evaluation, keeps improvements, discards failures, and loops indefinitely.

Not one guess — fifty measured attempts, compounding.

Slash Commands

Command	What it does
`/autoresearch-agent:setup`	Set up a new experiment interactively
`/ar-run`	Run a single experiment iteration
`/ar-loop`	Start autonomous loop with configurable interval (10m, 1h, daily, weekly, monthly)
`/ar-status`	Show dashboard and results
`/ar-resume`	Resume a paused experiment

When This Skill Activates

Recognize these patterns from the user:

"Make this faster / smaller / better"
"Optimize [file] for [metric]"
"Improve my [headlines / copy / prompts]"
"Run experiments overnight"
"I want to get [metric] from X to Y"
Any request involving: optimize, benchmark, improve, experiment loop, autoresearch

If the user describes a target file + a way to measure success → this skill applies.
