What problem does it solve?

Autonomously research a topic via multi-round web search, synthesize findings, and file structured results into the Obsidian wiki, reducing manual note-taking and knowledge curation overhead.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Autonomous topic exploration: Breaks a topic into angles, performs targeted searches, and gathers diverse sources.
  • Structured filing: Synthesizes findings and writes them into the Obsidian wiki with clear links and provenance.
  • Deep-dive workflows: Handles rounds of research (broad survey, gap fill, synthesis) to ensure depth and coherence.
