Safety checkedConduct Deep Strategic Research
A single skill for decomposing complex research questions into parallel investigation threads with multi-agent architecture and cited sources.
What problem does this solve?
Runs deep strategic research as a connected workflow instead of a Google search. You ask a complex question, COG decomposes it into parallel research threads, each investigated by a specialist worker agent, with all sources cited and findings synthesized. This prevents surface-level answers and ensures research is traceable and cross-checked.
How does it work?
- Ask a strategic question (e.g., 'Research the future of AI testing tools'). 2. COG decomposes it into sub-questions and spins up worker agents to investigate each thread in parallel. 3. Each agent fetches sources, cross-checks facts, and reports back. 4. The orchestrator synthesizes findings into a structured research document with full citations and confidence scores. Output: a research markdown file with sources, findings, and recommended next actions.

What's required to run this?
Uses web search and parallel worker agents (Sonnet for fetching, Opus for synthesis). Verification loop applies deterministic checks: all claims cross-referenced against 2+ sources, publication dates recorded, credibility tiers assigned (Tier 1 = major publications, Tier 2 = industry sources, Tier 3 = social/blogs with warnings). No AI-generated claims passed as research findings.
Key Features
Auto-Research
Deep strategic research with multi-agent investigation, source cross-referencing, and explicit confidence scoring.
Parallel Investigation
Worker agents run research threads simultaneously for speed. Each agent cross-checks facts independently.
Full Citations
Every finding includes source URL, credibility tier, and publication date. No unsourced claims.
Synthesis & Recommendations
Raw research findings synthesized into strategic insights with actionable recommendations.
