What This Skill Does
Client for the OpenAlexandria federated knowledge protocol. Supports querying cached research artifacts and submitting new bundles to a node. Default node is openalexandria.vercel.app, but any compatible node can be targeted via environment variable.
Agents can hit a shared knowledge cache before doing fresh web research, avoiding duplicate work across sessions and users.
When to use it
- Check for cached research before running a web search
- Submit a research bundle so future agents skip redundant lookups
- Retrieve a specific knowledge entry by ID
- Browse recent entries from the protocol feed
- Check submission status and curator feedback
Example Workflow
Here's how your AI assistant might use this skill in practice.

- 2Review returned entries for relevant cached results
- 3If no good hits, perform external research
- 4Package findings into a bundle and submit to the node
- 5Return submission ID and poll for status and feedback
Top cached entries on sovereign AI, or a new submission ID confirming the bundle was received
