deep-research보다 훨씬 적은 토큰·에이전트로 빠르게 조사하는 축소판 리서치 스킬. "가볍게 조사해줘", "간단히 찾아봐줘", "라이트 리서치", "축소 리서치", "딥리서치 말고 가볍게", "토큰 아껴서 조사해줘" 같은 표현이 나오면 반드시 사용한다. deep-research 워크플로우가 방금 세션/토큰 한도(rate limit)에 걸려 실패했을 때의 대안으로도 우선 고려한다. 주장별 3-vote 반박 검증 없이 "검색 각도별 조사 → 바로 종합" 2단계로 끝내 에이전트 수를 4~7개 수준으로 제한한다. 정확한 사실검증보다 빠른 개요·배경 파악이 목적일 때 적합하다. 반대로 인용 신뢰도를 반박 검증까지 해야 하는 무거운 리서치 요청이면 이 스킬 대신 deep-research를 쓴다.

From the source SKILL.md

deep-research는 Scope → Search → Fetch → Verify(주장별 3-vote) → Synthesize의 5단계 구조라, 검증 단계에서 주장 수 × 3만큼 에이전트가 늘어나 100개를 넘기기도 한다. 개인 Pro 요금제 세션 한도로는 여기서 자주 막힌다. 이 스킬은 검증 단계를 아예 없애고 "검색 각도별 조사 → 종합" 2단계로 줄여, 보통 에이전트 4~7개(검색 3~5개 + 종합 1개) 안에서 끝낸다.

What this skill does

Light Research is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the science-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/light-research/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

Who uses this skill

The Light Research Claude Code skill is built for researchers, data scientists, academics, and analysts working with complex data and scientific literature.

When should I use the Light Research skill?
Use Light Research when your Claude Code task falls under the Science & Research category — specifically in the science misc area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use Light Research" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at /category/science/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Light Research skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a SKILL.md file that lives under ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Light Research is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Science & Research category.
