SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Many users need in‑depth, multi‑source research that goes beyond simple web searches, requiring structured findings, citations, and analysis across several dimensions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multi‑phase methodology: scopes, parallel sub‑agent discovery, source evaluation, synthesis, and reporting.
  • Parallel research: launches up to five focused subagents simultaneously to gather diverse sources.
  • Cited reports: outputs a formatted research report with executive summary, findings, analysis, recommendations, and a numbered source list.
  • Use Cases: literature reviews, market analyses, technology evaluations, policy studies, or any complex topic requiring thorough evidence.

Quick Start

Ask the deep-research skill to provide a detailed report on the future of electric vehicles in 2026.

Frequently Asked Questions about deep-research

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a cited literature review from multiple sources automatically?▼

To generate a cited literature review from multiple sources, this research skill decomposes your question, runs parallel subagent searches across diverse domains, evaluates source credibility, and synthesizes findings into a structured report with a numbered citation list.

What is the best way to conduct a multi-source market analysis with evidence?▼

The best way to conduct a multi-source market analysis with evidence is using a multi-phase methodology that scopes the topic, launches up to five parallel focused discovery subagents, and synthesizes data into a formatted report with executive summary and recommendations.

Can I get a structured research report with an executive summary and recommendations?▼

Yes, you can get a structured research report with an executive summary, detailed findings, analysis, recommendations, and a numbered source list by providing a complex topic for the skill to research and synthesize.

Does this research tool work for technology evaluations and policy studies?▼

Yes, this research tool works for technology evaluations and policy studies, as it is designed for any complex topic requiring thorough evidence, multi-source discovery, and structured synthesis across multiple domains.

How does multi-source research handle source credibility evaluation?▼

Multi-source research handles source credibility evaluation by decomposing the topic into sub-questions, running parallel focused subagent searches, and evaluating the credibility of gathered sources before synthesizing them into the final cited report.

When should I not use an automated deep-research approach?▼

You should not use an automated deep-research approach for simple queries that do not require multi-source evidence, structured analysis, or cross-domain synthesis, as the multi-phase scoping and parallel subagent methodology is built for complex, in-depth topics.
