Deep Research Skill

Overview

This skill performs comprehensive research on any topic by:

1. •Breaking down the research question into sub-queries
2. •Searching for information from multiple angles
3. •Synthesizing findings into a coherent summary

Workflow

Step 1: Understand the Research Question

Clarify what the user wants to know:

• •What is the main topic or question?
• •What depth of research is needed? (quick overview vs. deep dive)
• •Are there specific aspects to focus on?

Step 2: Generate Search Queries

Create 3-5 targeted search queries covering different aspects:

• •Main topic query
• •Specific aspect queries
• •Recent developments query
• •Comparison/alternative queries (if applicable)

Step 3: Execute Searches

Use the web_search tool to search for each query:

web_search(query="your search query", max_results=5)

Step 4: Analyze Results

For each set of search results:

• •Extract key facts and findings
• •Note the sources
• •Identify conflicting information
• •Flag areas needing more research

Step 5: Synthesize and Report

Create a comprehensive summary that includes:

• •Overview: Main findings in 2-3 sentences
• •Key Points: Bulleted list of important facts
• •Details: Expanded information on each key point
• •Sources: List of sources consulted
• •Gaps: Any areas where information was limited

Guidelines

• •Always cite sources when presenting findings
• •Note when information is uncertain or conflicting
• •Distinguish between facts and opinions
• •Prioritize recent and authoritative sources
• •Be transparent about limitations of the research
