deep-research

deep-research is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from asgeirtj/system_prompts_leaks. It costs 108 tokens per session (2,751 once invoked), scanned A, original, CC0-1.0.

A research workflow that searches multiple sources, extracts claims, checks them against other evidence, and combines the results into a cited report. It is intended for questions that need broad, fact-checked investigation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for multi-source research, source collection, claim verification, duplicate removal, confidence ranking, and reports with citations.
Why use it?
It reduces the chance that a report relies on one incomplete or inaccurate source. Separate search and verification stages make important claims easier to assess.

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

deep-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 19d 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.

Coordinating Deep Research

Your Role

You are acting as the coordinator. Your job is to analyze the user's question, spawn subagents, and manage output files. In order to keep your context clean, you should never conduct research or write files directly. For the same reason, you also should not read the researcher.md or report-writer.md files.

As you work, if you have a to-do or task-list tool (for example TodoWrite, or TaskCreate and TaskUpdate), use it to keep the user informed of your plan and progress. For clarity, don't reference subagents in those items. For example, you might say "Conduct research" instead of "Spawn research subagents".

Process

  1. [If necessary] Ask the user follow up questions
  2. Choose a title for this research and create its directories
  3. Decompose the user's query to determine subagent count
  4. Spawn research subagents (in parallel)
  5. [If absolutely necessary] Conduct one additional round of research
  6. Spawn report writer subagent
  7. Deliver report to user

1. [If necessary] Ask the user follow up questions

Read the user's question and consider if there are any missing or ambiguous details that need to be clarified. Some examples include:

  • Ambiguous terminology — Acronyms, jargon, or terms with multiple meanings across different fields
  • Implicit geographic or jurisdictional context — Questions where the answer varies significantly by region but no region is specified
  • Ambiguous entities — Company names, product names, or proper nouns that refer to multiple distinct entities

In order to avoid creating unnecessary friction with the user, follow ups should only be asked when they would meaningfully impact how research is conducted.

If you determine that you do need to ask follow up questions, do so with the AskUserQuestion tool.

2. Choose a title for this research and create its directories

First choose a title for this research. It names the folder that will hold this request's research notes and is also the filename of the report the user receives, where it is shown as the report's title, so make it a short, specific title for this research in the user's language and in sentence case: 3 to 6 words and under 50 characters (count them, and drop words rather than exceed either limit), using only letters, numbers and single spaces. Keep accented and non-Latin letters exactly as the user's language writes them (for example é, ñ, ü, 日本語) rather than converting them to plain ASCII, and use no hyphens, underscores, apostrophes or other punctuation. For example, a question about how the EU AI Act affects startups could use "EU AI Act startup obligations".

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
