Recently, I've been asking Codex to write autoresearch wrappers for the modules that I want to optimize. There's a concrete use case where I want to add a feature or module, and I have several candidates. But each time you add one, you need to optimize all the other related parts to get a sense of how helpful the module is (autoresearch-wrapper-create). That's when I wanted to implement a SKILL for this, and I thought that at the very beginning, before optimizing a system, we should understand the dependencies. So here it comes: a Dependency-aware Autoresearch Engine that wraps your modules, scripts, and more.

News

• 2026/03/25: Refreshed the Claude marketplace package so the wizard-first flow and bundled scripts install correctly from the plugin cache.
• 2026/03/23 2:31 AM, Beijing Time: I've decided to release it at v0.0.2! Just feel excited to share it with the community. Although I'm still going through all the features to make sure they are everything I want, I think it is ready to play with.

Install

<details open> <summary><b>Claude Code (recommended)</b></summary>

/plugin marketplace add HenryCai11/autoresearch-wrapper
/plugin install autoresearch-wrapper

To update to the latest version:

/plugin marketplace update autoresearch-wrapper
/plugin update autoresearch-wrapper

If you installed an older 0.0.2 marketplace build before the plugin packaging changes, run:

/plugin marketplace update autoresearch-wrapper
/plugin remove autoresearch-wrapper
/plugin install autoresearch-wrapper

To uninstall:

/plugin remove autoresearch-wrapper

Or install manually:

git clone https://github.com/HenryCai11/autoresearch-wrapper.git

Claude Code discovers skills from .claude/skills/ automatically. If the repo lives outside your project, symlink:

mkdir -p /path/to/your-project/.claude/skills
ln -s /path/to/autoresearch-wrapper/.claude/skills/* /path/to/your-project/.claude/skills/

The marketplace package itself lives under plugins/autoresearch-wrapper/, while .claude/skills/ remains the source of truth for project-local Claude usage.

<details> <summary><b>Codex</b></summary>

mkdir -p ~/.codex/skills
ln -s /path/to/autoresearch-wrapper ~/.codex/skills/autoresearch-wrapper

Restart Codex after installing.

No installation needed — run directly:

python3 scripts/autoresearch_wrapper.py scan

Usage

Just run

/autoresearch-wrapper

This starts a wizard that begins with a compact core-functionality scan, then guides you step-by-step through target selection and run setup. If you want the full repo-wide listing, use python3 scripts/autoresearch_wrapper.py wizard --full-summary.

Examples

An example of the wizard for optimizing Recursive Language Models

example_rlm

Commands

Additional CLI subcommands: scan, configure, allocate, evaluate, record, resources, preset-metric, reference

Testing

python3 -m unittest -q

I'm inspired by several autoresearch projects. They are Karpathy's autoresearch, and uditgoenka's autoresearch. Thanks!
