End-to-end web research: search the web via Tavily keyless, then fetch each URL with a free-first cascade (defuddle → Tavily extract → mcode browser fallback). One Skill, one Python entry point.
What web-research does, in the publisher's words
End-to-end web research for MiniMax Code: search the web via Tavily (keyless, no API key required) and fetch each URL with a free-first cascade, defuddle → Tavily /extract → mcode in-app browser. One Skill, one Python entry point, no bash required.
Research inside an agent usually means three separate tool calls, three failure modes, and a manual paste-into-context step. This plugin collapses the whole flow into a single Skill invocation that the agent runs end-to-end and then summarises.
After installing the plugin, ask the agent:
- https://api.tavily.com/search (Tavily Search, keyless by default): sends the user's query to Tavily. Tavily then forwards the query to the upstream search engines it is configured with (Google, Bing, etc.). The script never follows HTTP redirects; a 3xx is an error. No telemetry is sent by this script. Authorization: optional TAVILY_API_KEY Bearer, or X-Tavily-Access-Mode: keyless.

- Use when the user asks to research a topic on the web, gather information from multiple sources, do a literature scan, summarize recent developments on a subject, or look up articles. Triggers on requests like "调研 X", "找几篇关于 Y 的文章", "research Z", "汇总 Q 的资料", "look up the latest on W". Do NOT use fo…

Search, discover, summarize and audit GitHub through the gh CLI: find repos about a topic, map a field landscape, trending, repo overviews, similar projects, code search, issue/PR search and org audits, backed by 9 zero-config Python scripts with relevance ranking and quota-aware searching. Read-only by default; opt-in write management (repos/issues/PRs/workflows/secrets/releases plus auth/config and gh api mutations) requires target, impact and minimal-data disclosure plus explicit user confirmation before execution. Honours GH_HOST (defaults to github.com; routes all API traffic to e.g. *.ghe.com GitHub Enterprise Cloud or github.acme.com GitHub Enterprise Server: credentials do not cross hosts, GH_TOKEN/GITHUB_TOKEN applies to github.com+*.ghe.com only, GHES on-prem requires GH_ENTERPRISE_TOKEN, and the skill does not validate the target).
Plan complex tasks as editable multi-agent workflows. Review the topology before execution, follow live results, and repair failed scripts while reusing valid completed work. Includes bilingual dashboards, configurable budgets and HTML/Markdown reports.
Evidence-first research workflow plugins for MiniMax Code, literature search, traceable evidence, citation verification, and human-gated research stages.
Enforce a search-before-edit workflow: locate relevant files, symbols, call sites, and surrounding context before proposing or making code changes.
Search the web through your own self-hosted SearXNG instance: categories, engines, time range, language and safe-search filters via a zero-dependency Python script, with bearer/basic auth and TOML or JSON config. The script contacts only the configured SearXNG instance (HTTPS by default; HTTP only for loopback or explicit opt-in); the instance then forwards the query, language, and categories to its own configured upstream engines (Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, etc., as enabled by the instance operator). No telemetry, no third-party services run by this script.
Vendor-neutral life-science Agent Plugin: public bio APIs, local RNA figures, safe molecular tools, and independent review.
