Deep research — clarify question, find primary sources, verify, deliver recommendation. Use when the answer requires checking documentation, papers, or official repos rather than guessing from memory.

Skill: Research
Process
- Clarify — What is the actual question? What decision does this inform?
- Find primary sources — Documentation, papers, official repos. Not blog summaries.
- Verify recency — Is this information current? Check dates.
- Cross-reference — Do multiple sources agree?
- Recommend — Deliver ONE recommendation with confidence level.
Red Flags
- Relying on a single source
- Information older than 6 months for fast-moving topics
- Delivering options without a recommendation
- Summarizing without verifying
When NOT to Use
- When the answer is in the codebase (search first)
- When the creator has already made a decision (don't second-guess)
