Research agent template — Wikipedia + HN + arXiv + Reddit in one config

Drop this into Claude Desktop / Cursor / Cline. You now have an agent that can pull Wikipedia summaries, recent HN discussions, arXiv papers, and Reddit threads for any topic with one prompt.

One-line install

curl -fsSL https://spawnpay.ai/install | bash

Note: the one-line install adds Spawnpay's default 6-MCP set. For this template, you may want to replace it with the config below.
