AI-powered genealogical research for former Soviet regions
Use an AI Agent to process church, civil, military, and exile records from the former Soviet Union and Russian Empire for evidence-first genealogical and kinship research. It parses multilingual historical archives, verifies evidence chains, and automatically generates a final HTML research report.

Steps
- 1Install Node.js and Python 3 on your system, and use the command-line tool to install the skill library into the appropriate directory for your AI Agent (such as Codex or Claude Code).
- 2Run the initialization script to create a dedicated case folder and set the research question and subject (for example: `python scripts/init_case.py --case-dir ~/kinship-cases/my-case --research-question "..." --subject-label "..."`).
- 3Hash the saved archive scans (for example: `python scripts/hash_artifact.py ~/kinship-cases/my-case/scans/file.jpg`).
- 4Describe your family history question, known facts, and the archives or scans that need to be reviewed to the AI Agent.
- 5Run the audit script to check register and evidence integrity before generating the report (for example: `python scripts/audit_evidence.py --case-dir ~/kinship-cases/my-case`), then have the AI export the complete HTML research report.
Copy-ready prompt
I need to research family history in the former Soviet region. Please help me conduct evidence-based genealogical verification: [Enter your family research question, for example: My great-grandfather was exiled to Kazakhstan in the 1930s, please help me find his parents in church records]. Strictly distinguish between facts and inferences, use traceable evidence chains, and reply in English.
