SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Single-source research summaries often miss conflicting viewpoints and contain unverified or fabricated claims. This Skill turns one topic into a fact-checked, multi-perspective HTML briefing where every citation is independently verified against its primary source before delivery. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Five Expert Lenses: Runs parallel research subagents as Practitioner, Academic, Skeptic, Economist, and Historian, then maps where they contradict and agree. - Citation Verification Pipeline: Adversarially peer-reviews its own draft, verifies every citation against primary sources, and tags each as Confirmed, Corrected, Contested, Demoted, or Fabricated. - Self-Contained HTML Report: Produces a single styled HTML file with reliability-scored findings, a hidden-connection analysis, a claim safety guide, and a frontier question. - Use Case: Ask for a STORM briefing on a contested topic like AI coding assistant productivity, and receive a verified report showing what practitioners, academics, and skeptics each found, which claims survived fact-checking, and what is safe to assert. ## Quick Start Run a storm research briefing on the topic of your choice and deliver the verified HTML report.

Frequently Asked Questions about storm-research

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I run a STORM research briefing on a topic?▼

Invoke the skill with a topic, for example by asking for a storm report on that subject. It runs a five-phase pipeline: scoping, five parallel expert-lens research agents, contradiction mapping, HTML report synthesis, and adversarial citation verification before delivering the file.

What does the multi-perspective research report contain?▼

The self-contained HTML report includes a 60-second summary, five reliability-scored key findings, a hidden-connection analysis, a missing-sixth-lens blind spot, actionable recommendations, a claim safety guide, a frontier question, and a reference list with per-citation verification status.

Can storm research run without web access?▼

No. Web access is a hard requirement because every lens and citation must trace to a real fetched source. If the platform cannot fetch the web, the skill stops at Phase 0 rather than generating a report from training memory.

When should I not use storm research?▼

Skip it for simple factual lookups, since the pipeline spawns roughly 9-11 subagents per run and is deliberately heavyweight. It is designed for contested topics where multiple viewpoints and verified claims justify the cost.

How are citations verified in the report?▼

Verification subagents fetch each primary source directly and confirm or correct the title, authors, figures, and peer-review status. Verdicts map to status tags: Confirmed, Corrected, Contested, Demoted, or Fabricated, and the report banner tallies the results.
