QiongliResearch with an evidence trail.

A Rust-native CLI, Skills and MCP sharing research records and sources. Keep your chosen Host and model.

Runtime boundaries

The 2.x CLI, Lite/Full MCP and exported native Plugins need no additional language runtime. The npm entry needs Node, PyPI needs Python, and Cargo needs Rust build tools. Choose the standalone binary to avoid those installation prerequisites. Configure Host applications and online service accounts when the task requires them.

Update packages through their original channel. upgrade plugin refreshes content from the running CLI; upgrade cli explains the package update commands. After registration, start a new Host session to check actual tools. Native Marketplace platform packages use Lite MCP; local CLI-exported Plugins use Full MCP.
