deep-research

deep-research is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from beel-collab/presets.dev. It costs 19 tokens per session (760 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of deep-research, MIT.

An autonomous research tool that plans searches, reads sources, and combines findings into a report. It is intended for tasks such as market analysis, technical research, literature reviews, and due diligence.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to research a topic, compare technologies, analyze a market, conduct due diligence, or produce a structured report with streaming progress.
Why use it?
It handles the repeated work of researching and synthesizing information instead of requiring each source and conclusion to be gathered manually.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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 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.

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.
