For your agent or custom application
Give your agent a research workflow
Download the instructions, examples, and helpers your agent needs to produce reports with evidence you can inspect.
Research
Collect evidence, write a report, check its citations and calculations, and save it to Cemented.
Search
Find and read source pages, preserving exact quotations and retrieval hashes.
Audit
Check an existing document for factual errors, citation problems, and unsupported conclusions.
Install all three skills
Your host must support local skills. Keep research, search, and audit together so their shared references work.
- Extract the ZIP into your project root. It contains .agents/skills/research, .agents/skills/search, and .agents/skills/audit.
- If your host uses a different skill directory, move all three folders there together. Keep their references, examples, and scripts.
- Reload your agent’s skills if required. Ask it to research a topic or check a document.
Install the Cemented research, search, and audit skills from https://www.cemented.ai/connect/skills.Use your API token
Configure CEMENTED_API_TOKEN in your agent’s environment or secret settings. The skills use direct API requests whenever a token is present, so you do not need MCP.
CEMENTED_API_TOKENThe bundled helper uses Python 3 with no third-party dependencies. It does not load .env files. Your host can also make the HTTP requests itself. Keep your token out of chat and skill files.
Without a token, connect through MCP
The skills use your host’s Cemented MCP connection and OAuth sign-in when no API token is configured. An API error does not switch to MCP or another account.
Private reports saved through the API may require browser sign-in. Report uploads are unavailable for API accounts using zero data retention.
Update the bundle together
Download the latest bundle and replace all three skill folders after reviewing any local changes. The manifest lists the version and checksum.
