Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00055 | $0.00679 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00022 | $0.00272 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00136 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00068 |
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.
This is a copy
83% identical to deep-research — 18 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 107 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Gemini Deep Research Skill
Run autonomous research tasks that plan, search, read, and synthesize information into comprehensive reports.
Requirements
- Python 3.8+
- httpx:
pip install -r requirements.txt - GEMINI_API_KEY environment variable
Setup
- Get a Gemini API key from Google AI Studio
- Set the environment variable:
Or create aexport GEMINI_API_KEY=your-api-key-here.envfile in the skill directory.
Usage
Start a research task
python3 scripts/research.py --query "Research the history of Kubernetes"
With structured output format
python3 scripts/research.py --query "Compare Python web frameworks" \
--format "1. Executive Summary\n2. Comparison Table\n3. Recommendations"
Stream progress in real-time
python3 scripts/research.py --query "Analyze EV battery market" --stream
Start without waiting
python3 scripts/research.py --query "Research topic" --no-wait
Check status of running research
python3 scripts/research.py --status <interaction_id>
Wait for completion
python3 scripts/research.py --wait <interaction_id>
Continue from previous research
python3 scripts/research.py --query "Elaborate on point 2" --continue <interaction_id>
List recent research
python3 scripts/research.py --list
Output Formats
- Default: Human-readable markdown report
- JSON (
--json): Structured data for programmatic use - Raw (
--raw): Unprocessed API response
Cost & Time
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Time | 2-10 minutes per task |
| Cost | $2-5 per task (varies by complexity) |
| Token usage | ~250k-900k input, ~60k-80k output |
Best Use Cases
- Market analysis and competitive landscaping
- Technical literature reviews
- Due diligence research
- Historical research and timelines
- Comparative analysis (frameworks, products, technologies)
What ships with it
5 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.
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.
