# Comprehensive Research Agent Best Practices

This skill addresses common failures in multi-step research tasks: unhandled tool errors, missing validation, opaque reasoning, and premature conclusions. It provides structured protocols for source validation, error recovery, and thinking transparency that significantly improves research quality and reliability.

## When to Activate

- Task involves web research with search, read_url, or fetch operations
- Task requires gathering information from multiple sources
- Task has explicit requirements for completeness or verification
- Task includes file operations that need validation (save, write, read)
- Any research or information-gathering workflow with 3+ tool interactions
