deep-researchlisted

Run a deep, multi-source, fact-checked research investigation that ends in a cited report, not a single web lookup. Use when the user asks to "research X", "do a deep dive on", "find out everything about", "investigate", "compare the options for", "what's the state of the art on", or "give me a report with sources" — or poses a broad, open-ended question that one search cannot settle and that needs several sources cross-checked against each other. Runs the pipeline scope -> decompose into angles -> fan out searches -> dedupe and fetch sources -> extract falsifiable claims -> adversarially verify each load-bearing claim -> synthesize a confidence-ranked, per-claim-cited report that keeps negative findings. Prefer it over an ad-hoc search whenever being wrong is costly or the answer must be defensible.

# Deep Research Turn a fuzzy question into a **defensible, cited answer**. The value of this skill is not finding pages — a single search does that — it is *disproving* what you find. Most of the effort goes into scoping the question tightly, pulling from several independent angles, and then actively trying to refute every load-bearing claim before it earns a place in the report. A claim that no one tried to refute is a rumor with a footnote. This skill is self-contained. Run it top to bottom; reach for the two references only where noted for depth. ## The pipeline at a glance | Phase | Do | Output | | --- | --- | --- | | 0. Scope | Confirm the question is answerable; narrow it if not | A single, specific research question | | 1. Decompose | Split the refined question into ~5 distinct search angles | An angle list, each with a purpose | | 2. Fan out | Search each angle (parallel subagents if available, else serial) | Raw hits per angle | | 3. Sources | Dedupe URLs, triage, fetch the top sources, extract falsifiable claims | A claim ledger, each claim source-attributed | | 4. Verify | Try to refute each load-bearing claim independently; label the survivors | Verdict + confidence per claim | | 5. Synthesize | Merge duplicates, rank by confidence, write the cited report | A report with per-claim provenance | The phases are ordered but not one-way: a verification failure in phase 4 or a thin source in phase 3 can send you back to add an angle (phase 1) or re-search (phase 2)
