## Quick Start
### Installation (Research-Claw / OpenClaw Users)
```bash
openclaw plugins install @wentorai/research-plugins
```
The plugin will be installed to `~/.openclaw/extensions/`, and automatically loaded after restarting the gateway.
### Installation (Claude Code / Cursor / Windsurf / OpenCode Users)
```bash
npx skills add wentorai/research-plugins
```
> This method only installs the SKILL.md files (no API tools), suitable for 41 agent frameworks that support the skills protocol.
### Uninstallation
```bash
# OpenClaw / Research-Claw — manually delete the plugin directory
rm -rf ~/.openclaw/extensions/research-plugins
# npx skills — manually delete the skills directory
rm -rf .skills/wentorai/research-plugins
```
> **pnpm project note**: Do not use this package as a `pnpm` dependency and load it from `node_modules` via `plugins.load.paths`. The `pnpm` hard link mechanism will be rejected by OpenClaw's security verification (`unsafe plugin manifest path`). Always use `openclaw plugins install`.

## What's Included
### Academic Skills (438)
Structured SKILL.md guides covering the entire research process, loaded on demand:
| Category | Number | Coverage |
|:--|:--|:--|
| **Literature** | 87 | Multi-database search · Citation tracking · Full-text retrieval · Open access |
| **Research Methods** | 79 | DID · RDD · IV · Meta-analysis · Systematic review · Fund application |
| **Data Analysis** | 68 | Python · R · STATA · Visualization · Panel data · Econometrics |
| **Academic Writing** | 74 | Paper sections · LaTeX · References · Review response |
| **Domains** | 93 | 16 disciplines: CS · AI/ML · Biomedicine · Economics · Law · Physics, etc. |
| **Tools** | 51 | Flowcharts · PDF analysis · Knowledge graph · OCR · Web scraping |
Skills work through a **progressive loading** mechanism: 6 category entries → 40 subcategory indexes → 438 specific skills. Agents load on demand, without injecting all content at once.
