deep-research
Use when user requests research requiring multiple sources, comprehensive analysis, or synthesis across topics - technical research, domain knowledge gathering, market analysis, or learning about complex subjects
npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill deep-research-mhagrelius-dotfiles --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Deep Research Autonomous multi-agent research system. Dispatches parallel sub-agents, stores findings to files, synthesizes into briefs or reports. **Core principle:** Planning → Parallel research agents → File-based findings → Synthesis = high quality research with minimal context usage. ## When to Use ```dot digraph when_to_use { "User requests research?" [shape=diamond]; "Quick factual lookup?" [shape=diamond]; "Use single search tool directly" [shape=box]; "Multiple sources or synthesis needed?" [shape=diamond]; "deep-research" [shape=box]; "User requests research?" -> "Quick factual lookup?" [label="yes"]; "Quick factual lookup?" -> "Use single search tool directly" [label="yes"]; "Quick factual lookup?" -> "Multiple sources or synthesis needed?" [label="no"]; "Multiple sources or synthesis needed?" -> "deep-research" [label="yes"]; } ``` **Use for:** Technical research, domain knowledge, market analysis, architectural patterns, comparing approaches, learning complex topics **Don't use for:** Single fact lookups, specific URL fetches, questions answerable in one search ## The Process ```dot digraph process { rankdir=TB; "Create research directory in scratchpad" -> "Dispatch

What does the deep-research skill do?
Use when user requests research requiring multiple sources, comprehensive analysis, or synthesis across topics - technical research, domain knowledge gathering, market analysis, or learning about complex subjects
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill deep-research-mhagrelius-dotfiles --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
