I have a sales call with Linear next. Use the company-research skill on linear.app and give me a cited brief: what they do, who they serve, how they position themselves, and any public pricing signal. Use the free Markdown and Brand endpoints first, keep each claim linked to its source URL, and mark anything you cannot verify as unknown.Verified example
Small input, real output.
Free baseline: two zero-auth reads feed the skill. The brief itself is synthesized by your host agent against the company-brief contract.

}Free vs authenticated
Know exactly where the free path ends.
Free / no key
The baseline needs no account or API key: read the homepage through md.replynodes.com and the brand kit through brand.replynodes.com.
Authenticated enrichment
Optional ReplyNodes API key adds web_search, webcontext_map, webcontext_scrape, and webcontext_crawl through the authenticated MCP surface for site mapping and targeted scraping.
Evidence behavior
Every material claim is a claim object linked to an evidence id; each evidence record keeps its exact source URL, kind (first_party/third_party), retrieval time, and a bounded excerpt. Missing facts stay unknown, and meta.synthesis is always host_agent.
