--- ## What is this? An AI agent skill that enables any AI platform to **plan, run, and synthesize user research** — both qualitative (interviews) and quantitative (surveys) — without leaving the conversation. Use it for **general-purpose research** (design research plans, interview guides, synthesize reports), or connect to **Cookiy AI** to run **end-to-end studies** with real or synthetic participants. --- ## Capabilities | | Capability | Description | |---|---|---| | **Plan** | Research Planning | Generates research plans, screening questionnaires, and interview guides | | **Synthesize** | Report Synthesis | Turns raw interview transcripts into evidence-backed reports with codebooks, personas, and prioritized findings | | **Qual** | Qualitative Studies | AI-moderated interviews with real or synthetic participants, via Cookiy AI | | **Quant** | Quantitative Surveys | Multi-language surveys with conditional logic, respondent recruitment, and results — via Cookiy AI | --- ## Install ### Claude Cowork / Code Desktop 1. `Customize` > `Personal Plugins` > `+` > `Create Plugin` > `Add marketplace`, input `cookiy-ai/user-research-skill`, click `Sync` 2. `Plugins` > `Personal` > `user-research-skill`, click `+` on `User research` 3.
