# Deep Research
Answer questions from real, read sources — not memory. Every claim traces to a URL.
`S=~/.claude/skills/deep-research/scripts/fc.py` (run `python3 $S <cmd>`). The key is read
automatically from `.claude/.env.local`, `~/.claude/.env.local`, or `$FIRECRAWL_API_KEY`.
## Workflow
**1. Scope.** Restate the question in one line. Pick a depth (default: standard). Ask a
clarifying question *only* if two readings would produce genuinely different research —
otherwise state your assumption and go.
| depth | queries | read | ~credits |
|-------|---------|------|----------|
| quick | 3 | 4–5 | ~15 |
| standard | 6 | 10–12 | ~35 |
| deep | 8–12, two rounds | 18–25 | ~70 |
**2. Plan.** Write 3–12 sub-queries as a visible plan before running anything. Cover
different *angles*, not rephrasings: definition/primary source, current state, numbers and
benchmarks, criticism and failure modes, comparisons, recency. Use the words a source
would use, not the words the user used.
**3. Search** — one call, all queries run in parallel:
```bash
python3 $S search "sub-query one" "sub-query two" "sub-query three" \
--limit 6 --topic "short label" [--recent month] [--news]
```
Prints a numbered source table and the RUN directory. Keep that path — every later
command needs `--run`.
**4. Select.** From the table, pick sources for *diversity and authority*: primary docs,
official announcements, papers, and specs beat listicles and SEO blogspam. Include at
least one skeptical or com
