# Research

**Contents:** Ideal State · Intent Routing · Tool contract · Output format · Data & Config · Gotchas · References

Researches a topic across multiple sources and verifies every claim before delivery. Four depth modes scale from a single fast lookup to a multi-session investigation: Quick (1 Perplexity call, ~10-15s), Standard (four vendors cross-checked as parallel tool calls in the session, ~30-60s), Extensive (7 explorers + 2 independent verifiers, ~60-90s), and Deep Investigation (progressive iteration with a persistent vault, ~3-60min). Output is confidence-tagged: [HIGH] [MED] [LOW] [CONFLICT].

A lone research agent fails in two quiet ways. It hallucinates URLs, confident links that go nowhere and cost the whole report its trust. And it answers from one angle, parroting the first few search results and missing conflicts, gaps, and what real people thought; asked "what did fans think of X", it hands back promoter copy dressed as consensus. This skill runs several vendors in parallel (as tool calls at Quick and Standard, as researcher agents at Extensive and Deep), cross-checks and independently verifies their findings, checks every URL before it ships, and routes sentiment questions to community sources first.

**Vendor diversity scales with effort.** Quick is one vendor, Standard four, Extensive and Deep all five. Each vendor's model comes from a different training distribution, so the more a question is worth, the more independent distributions check it.

## Ideal State

- Every URL in a delivered answer was fetched and its page supports the claim it is cited for; a link that could not be verified was dropped, never shipped.
- The depth matches the ask: "research" alone ran Standard, Quick ran only on an explicit quick request or an everyday look-up, and each tier's vendor roster was complete (a higher tier never drops a vendor a lower tier uses), or the answer says which slot was swapped and why.
