Add a new research skill that enables continuous, self-directed research with a two-loop architecture: - Inner loop: Rapid experiment iteration with measurable outcomes - Outer loop: Periodic synthesis, pattern discovery, and direction setting Features: - Research workspace templates (state, findings, log) - Example project (LoRA rank study) - Configuration options for loop intervals and auto-commit - Integration with existing research skills (arxiv, paper-writing) Updated research/DESCRIPTION.md to include autoresearch in the skill overview.
