Does the research include source citations?

Yes, the synthesis process requires subagents to capture key facts and source URLs, which are then integrated into the final report.

How does this skill handle complex research topics?

It breaks complex questions into 2-5 distinct subtopics and assigns specific research subagents to investigate each area simultaneously.

Can it perform multiple searches at once?

Yes, the skill can spawn and run up to 3 research subagents in parallel to gather information quickly and efficiently.

How is the search budget managed?

The skill utilizes a systematic budget of 3-5 web searches per subtopic to ensure comprehensive coverage without over-researching.

Where does the skill store the research findings?

All findings are organized into a dedicated local directory (e.g., research_[topic_name]) using markdown files to prevent workspace clutter.

Productivity & Workflow

Executes multi-threaded, deep-dive web research by orchestrating subagents to collect, organize, and synthesize information into structured reports.

The Web Research skill empowers Claude to handle complex informational queries by breaking them down into specific subtopics and delegating investigation to parallel subagents. By following a rigorous plan-save-synthesize workflow, it ensures that high-volume information from across the web is systematically gathered into local markdown files before being distilled into comprehensive, well-cited answers. This skill is particularly effective for technical investigations, market analysis, and comparative studies where a single search query is insufficient to capture the full scope of a topic.
