Initialize gepa-research for the current repository by exploring the codebase, proposing unexplored optimization dimensions, constructing the benchmark inside a baseline worktree, and running the first experiment. Use when the user invokes /gepa-research:discover, mentions setting up gepa-research, wants to instrument a codebase for autonomous optimization, or asks to start a new gepa-research run on a project.
Claude Skills are markdown + scripts loaded into Claude Code; scanned with the same pipeline.
We found this by crawling public sources and nobody has attested to it. That is how most of the registry gets here, and it is not a mark against the artifact — it only means no authenticated act of publication is on record. An artifact can be the vendor's own and still appear here.
Claude Skills install to a single target, no runtime picker.
nerlo install -- 'cyrusnuevodia/gepa-research (discover)'
Manual alternative: copy the skill folder into ~/.claude/skills/ so Claude Code loads it on next launch.
cp -r -- 'cyrusnuevodia/gepa-research (discover)' ~/.claude/skills/
Install respects the composite badge: Clean proceeds, Caution prompts for confirmation, and Flagged is refused. Write operations require an API token.
4 of 11 scanners examined this package. The rest do not apply to it — language, ecosystem and packaging decide which analyzers can say anything, and a scanner that cannot examine an artifact reports nothing rather than passing it.

Findings in files this artifact installs stand as reported; a model re-read the rest and said which ones it believes are false positives. This is a second opinion published beside the evidence, not a correction to it: the per-scanner reports above are unchanged, every dismissed finding is still listed there at its original severity, and the score and the Flagged badge are computed from those raw severities alone. Nothing below moved them.
Out of 71 findings across every scanner that examined this package.
Two keys had to turn. The model had to name a reason from a fixed list of six, and a deterministic check of ours — over which files this artifact actually installs — had to independently agree. Anything it could not corroborate is in “not reviewed” above, at full severity.
26 Test or fixture file — The match is in a test or fixture. Our own check confirmed the file is not part of what gets installed.

These findings are in files this artifact installs and are not placeholder values. No false-positive basis can be corroborated for such a finding, so this review never dismisses one; they were not sent to the model and stand at their scanner's severity.

Artifact has dynamic execution and marketplace configuration risks.
The artifact contains code capable of dynamic execution in `gepa_research/cli.py` and `gepa_research/gepa_adapter.py`. It also includes marketplace configuration files that warrant attention in `.agents/plugins/marketplace.json` and `.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`. Further, there are indications of potential network egress capabilities and generic code execution patterns.
Concern level assessed by the review: High. This is the review's scale, not the registry badge.
Reviewed by gemini-2.5-flash. The model sees the findings, not your code, and cannot change a score.
