  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 2 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by cnemri on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Deep Research AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/cnemri/google-genai-skills/tree/main/skills/deep-research
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/cnemri/google-genai-skills.git /tmp/google-genai-skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/google-genai-skills/skills/deep-research .claude/skills/deep-research
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Deep Research in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Deep Research on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Deep Research is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Deep Research

Use this skill to conduct deep, autonomous research tasks that require planning, searching, reading, and synthesizing information.

This skill uses the Gemini Deep Research Agent (deep-research-pro-preview-12-2025) via the Interactions API.

Prerequisites

  • GOOGLE_API_KEY: Required for accessing the Interactions API (currently in Preview via AI Studio).
  • google-genai SDK v0.3.0+

Usage

Basic Research

Start a research task and stream the results to the console.

bash
uv run skills/deep-research/scripts/research.py "Research the history of RISC-V architecture."

Research with Context (Files or Directories)

Provide local files (PDFs, text) or entire directories for the agent to read and incorporate into its research.

Direct Upload (Best for specific docs):

bash
# Single file
uv run skills/deep-research/scripts/research.py "Analyze this report" --file report.pdf

# Entire directory
uv run skills/deep-research/scripts/research.py "Summarize these meeting notes" --file ./notes/

File Search Store (Best for large corpora): Use --use-file-store to index files into a searchable store (RAG) instead of uploading them into the context window.

bash
uv run skills/deep-research/scripts/research.py "Find trends in these 1000 PDFs" --file ./large_corpus/ --use-file-store

Saving the Report

Save the final Markdown report to a file.

bash
uv run skills/deep-research/scripts/research.py "Competitive landscape of EV batteries" --output report.md

Continuing Research (Follow-up)

Ask follow-up questions to an existing research session using the Interaction ID (displayed at the start of the previous run).

bash
uv run skills/deep-research/scripts/research.py "Elaborate on the second point about lithium supply." --follow-up "INTERACTION_ID_HERE"

How it Works

  1. Planning: The agent breaks down your prompt into steps.
  2. Execution: It autonomously searches the web and reads your provided files.
  3. Resilience: The script automatically reconnects if the long-running stream drops.
  4. Synthesis: It produces a comprehensive, cited report.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Deep Research AI skill do?

Perform autonomous, multi-step research using the Gemini Deep Research Agent (Interactions API). Supports web search, file/directory context, and resilient streaming.

Why use Deep Research on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Deep Research is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Deep Research in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/cnemri/google-genai-skills/tree/main/skills/deep-research. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Deep Research?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Deep Research?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Deep Research with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Deep Research AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by cnemri under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
