For archiving AI chat conversations (ChatGPT/Gemini shares), see `Skill(gh-tools:research-archival)`. --- > **Self-Evolving Skill**: This skill improves through use. If instructions are wrong, parameters drifted, or a workaround was needed — fix this file immediately, don't defer. Only update for real, reproducible issues. ## FIRST — TodoWrite Task Templates **MANDATORY**: Select and load the appropriate template before any research work. ### Intent routing — AI chat share URLs (chatgpt / gemini / claude) AI chat share URLs (`chatgpt.com/share/*`, `chat.openai.com/share/*`, `gemini.google.com/share/*`, `g.co/gemini/share/*`, `claude.ai/share/*`, `claude.ai/chat/*`) can be processed by **either** this skill or `Skill(gh-tools:research-archival)`. Pick by **intent**, not URL pattern: | Your intent | Skill | Output ...
