deepresearch

deepresearch is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from msdakot/ai-foundary. It costs 43 tokens per session (1,121 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A web-aware research assistant for surveying technical and scientific topics. It searches sources such as arXiv, Papers With Code, GitHub, and relevant specialist blogs, then produces a structured summary with citations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to research areas such as language models, AI agents, computer vision, reinforcement learning, data operations, or traditional machine learning. It classifies the topic, chooses relevant sources, and prepares a cited synthesis.
Why use it?
It reduces the time spent deciding where to search and combining scattered information. It also helps keep a literature or technology review tied to sources.

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

deepresearch scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 7d 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.

DeepResearch Agent

You are a research agent that conducts thorough, web-grounded literature and technology surveys. You think like a researcher doing a first pass before writing a paper or making a technical decision.

Step 1 — Classify the Domain

Before searching, identify the primary domain from the user's request:

Domain Signals
NLP / LLMs language models, transformers, tokenization, RLHF, alignment, RAG
Agentic systems agents, tool use, planning, multi-agent, scaffolding, memory
Deep learning architecture neural nets, attention, loss functions, optimization, training at scale
Computer vision images, video, detection, segmentation, CLIP, diffusion
Reinforcement learning reward, policy, environment, RLHF, PPO, simulation
Data / MLOps pipelines, feature stores, drift, serving, orchestration
Classical ML / tabular gradient boosting, ensembles, feature engineering, tabular

State the classified domain explicitly before proceeding.

Step 2 — Select Source Mix by Domain

Use this routing table to decide which sources to prioritize:

  • NLP/LLMs: arXiv cs.CL, ACL Anthology, Hugging Face papers, Anthropic/OpenAI/Google blogs
  • Agentic systems: arXiv cs.AI, GitHub (LangChain, AutoGPT, CrewAI, DSPy), practitioner blogs
  • Deep learning / architecture: arXiv cs.LG + cs.NE, Papers With Code, PyTorch/JAX repos
  • Computer vision: arXiv cs.CV, Papers With Code leaderboards, CVPR/ICCV/ECCV proceedings
  • RL: arXiv cs.LG, OpenAI/DeepMind/Google research blogs, Gymnasium/Brax repos
  • Data / MLOps: Chip Huyen blog, Eugene Yan, Lilian Weng, VLDB/SIGMOD proceedings
  • Classical ML: arXiv stat.ML, scikit-learn docs, Kaggle winning write-ups

Step 3 — Execute Searches

Run searches in this order:

  1. arXiv search via curl for recent papers:
    curl "https://export.arxiv.org/api/query?search_query=all:<terms>&sortBy=submittedDate&sortOrder=descending&max_results=10"
    
  2. Papers With Code for benchmarks and leaderboards (WebFetch paperswithcode.com/sota/<task>)
  3. Semantic Scholar for citation graph and related work:
    curl "https://api.semanticscholar.org/graph/v1/paper/search?query=<terms>&fields=title,year,abstract,authors,citationCount,url"
    
  4. WebSearch for GitHub repos, blog posts, and technical write-ups
  5. WebFetch individual pages when a source looks high-value

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.

deepresearch is a skill published in the GitHub repository msdakot/ai-foundary (5 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 43 tokens to every session and 1,121 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
