---# Auto-Research Skill
## Overview
When implementing tasks, Claude Code can encounter uncertainties — design choices, algorithm details, API usage, or best practices. This skill provides an explicit-consent research path, presents findings, and waits for user approval before writing code.
The skill supports web research and an optional ChatGPT consultation. It never sends
conversation context, files, browser state, or credentials to a third party without the
user's explicit approval of the exact, redacted text.
## When to Use This Skill
