research is a command for Claude Code from datacore-one/datacore. It costs 24 tokens per session (1,064 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A research workflow that finds sources, processes their content, combines the findings, and can produce reports, stored knowledge, and podcasts. It accepts either a topic or a URL.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for quick, standard, or deep research; multi-source summaries; reports; knowledge extraction; and optional podcast creation.
Why use it?

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

research scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

/research Command

Command Context

When to Reference DIP-0021

Always reference when:

  • Running research pipelines
  • Discovering external sources
  • Processing multiple URLs
  • Generating research reports and podcasts

Key decisions this DIP informs:

  • Research workflow (discover -> select -> process -> synthesize)
  • Source registry for available providers
  • Output format (summary + report + knowledge + GTD)
  • Depth levels (quick/standard/deep)

Quick Reference

Question Answer
Entry point? /research <topic|url>
Orchestrator? research-orchestrator
Source registry? .datacore/registry/sources.yaml
Settings? .datacore/settings.yaml (research.*)
Output locations? content/reports/, content/summaries/, 3-knowledge/
What DIPs govern this? DIP-0021, DIP-0004, DIP-0009

Agents This Command Invokes

Agent Purpose
research-orchestrator Full pipeline orchestration
knowledge-extractor Per-source content processing (spawned by orchestrator)
research-synthesizer Multi-source synthesis (spawned by orchestrator)
podcast-creator Audio generation (optional, spawned by orchestrator)

Integration Points

  • DIP-0021 - Research architecture
  • DIP-0004 - Datacortex for discovery and dedup
  • DIP-0009 - GTD action item routing
  • Source Registry - Available research sources

Deep multi-source research: discover, gather, process, synthesize, and optionally generate audio.

Usage

/research <topic>
/research <url>
/research --topic "..." --depth quick|standard|deep
/research --podcast --space <space>

Arguments:

Argument Description
<topic> Free-text research query (triggers discovery phase)
<url> Specific URL to process (skips discovery)
--depth quick (Perplexity only), standard (default), deep (all sources + Gemini)
--podcast Generate audio overview when done
--space Target space for outputs (default: 0-personal)

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

research is a command published in the GitHub repository datacore-one/datacore (4 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 24 tokens to every session and 1,064 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
