Quick research

Skill Razaib-khan/ForgeWeave/src/forgeweave/templates/gemini/.gemini/skills/quick-research

Lightweight single-pass search for fast answers when context is missing. Use this skill whenever the agent needs to: look up an API signature, verify a library version, check a CLI flag, find a code example, research an error message, or confirm a configuration option. Triggers automatically when you are about to write code with an unfamiliar library or encounter a gap in context. NOT for comprehensive research — use deep-research for that.From its SKILL.md

Purpose

Get fast, focused answers by crawling a small set of authoritative URLs and extracting the relevant information. No multi-agent pipeline, no planning phase, no validation stage. This is the default research mode — use it whenever you lack context about any technology.

When to Use (Auto-Detect)

Always call websearch or load this skill when:

You are about to write code using an API/library you're not 100% confident about
You encounter an unfamiliar function signature, parameter, or return type
You need to verify a library version, feature availability, or deprecation status
You need a quick code example for a specific API method
You encounter an error and need to look up the error message or fix
You need to confirm a configuration option, CLI flag, or environment variable
The question can be answered from 1-3 sources
You are short on context for any technology usage — stop and search before coding

When NOT to Use

The topic requires comparing multiple sources or perspectives — use deep-research
You need to understand a new framework from scratch (3+ subtopics) — use deep-research
The question is about code in the current project — answer directly from the codebase
The user explicitly asked for "deep research" or "comprehensive report"
The project will need this knowledge repeatedly — research and convert to skill

Inputs

Input	Type	Required	Description
`query`	string	Yes	The specific question to answer
`seed_urls`	array of string	No	Suggested URLs to check (auto-discovered if omitted)

Expected Outputs

A concise answer with:

Direct answer to the question
1-3 code examples if applicable
Source URLs for each claim

Exact Workflow Steps

Determine 1-3 authoritative URLs (official docs, API refs)
Fetch them using webfetch
For JS-rendered pages or incomplete responses, use Playwright MCP tools:
- browser_navigate to load the page
- browser_snapshot to extract structured content via element refs
Extract the specific information requested
Return a concise answer with sources

Required Checks

Every claim has a source URL
Answer directly addresses the question

Failure Modes

Failure Condition	Response
URL returns 404	Try Playwright MCP as fallback
Information not found at any URL	Report "not found in searched sources"

Examples

Example: "What's the cacheLife default profile in Next.js 16?"

Crawl nextjs.org/docs/app/api-reference/functions/cacheLife
Extract: default is stale=5min, revalidate=15min, expire=never
Return answer with source URL

Example: "Fix: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'aiohttp'"

This is a context gap — stop and search
websearch("python install aiohttp package")
Extract: pip install aiohttp
Proceed with the fix
