Deep Research (Dify Powered)

This skill delegates research tasks to a specialized Dify Workflow that:

1. Searches official documentation, tutorials, and academic resources
2. Analyzes the topic with DeepSeek Reasoner for deep insights
3. Iteratively searches for examples, solutions, and related research
4. Generates a comprehensive research report with structured findings

Use this skill for:

• Code implementation research (APIs, libraries, best practices)
• Academic paper analysis and literature review
• Technology comparison and evaluation
• Any topic requiring comprehensive, structured research

Parameters

{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "coding_task": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "The coding task or question to research (required)"
    },
    "tech_stack": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Technology stack context (e.g., 'React 18, TypeScript, Next.js')"
    },
    "depth": {
      "type": "integer",
      "minimum": 1,
      "maximum": 5,
      "default": 3,
      "description": "Research depth (1=quick, 3=standard, 5=comprehensive)"
    }
  },
  "required": ["coding_task"]
}

Workflow

Step 1: Locate the Client Script

The client script is at: .claude/skills/deep-research/scripts/dify-client.ts Use Glob to find the absolute path if needed.

Step 2: Execute Research

Use Bash to run the script with npx tsx:

npx tsx "<path_to_script>" "<coding_task>" "<tech_stack>" <depth>

Examples:

# Basic research
npx tsx ".claude/skills/deep-research/scripts/dify-client.ts" "How to implement OAuth2 in Next.js"

# With tech stack
npx tsx ".claude/skills/deep-research/scripts/dify-client.ts" "Add real-time notifications" "React 18, Socket.io"

# With depth
npx tsx ".claude/skills/deep-research/scripts/dify-client.ts" "Optimize database queries" "PostgreSQL, Prisma" 5

Step 3: Process Results

The script returns JSON with two main fields:

• analysis: Task analysis with knowledge gaps and tech requirements
• guide: Complete implementation guide with:
  • TASK_SUMMARY
  • DEPENDENCIES (install commands)
  • FILES_TO_CREATE (complete code)
  • FILES_TO_MODIFY (change instructions)
  • ENVIRONMENT_CONFIG
  • VERIFICATION (test commands)
  • GOTCHAS (common issues)
  • SOURCES
