Produce an intensive, cited analytical report: executive summary, multi-angle findings, contrarian views, open questions, and full sources. Use only when the user needs rigorous synthesis of a complex topic (scientific, technical, policy, or market-analytical) that cannot be answered with a short search, and wants a formal written report, not a recommendation list. Do not use for product picks, top-N lists, quick lookups, or routine "find out about X" tasks. If the request does not clearly…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Firecrawl Deep Research Use this only for report-scale research: a rigorous, cited synthesis the user explicitly wants delivered as a formal written report. If the request is a product pick, a top-N list, a quick lookup, or anything answerable with a short search, stop; do not use this skill, let the request be handled the standard way. This skill gathers its evidence from the open web. If the evidence base is the published literature — a literature review, or a biomedical, clinical, or other scientific topic where the answer lives in papers — use [firecrawl-research-papers](../firecrawl-research-papers/SKILL.md) instead; it queries Firecrawl's paper index rather than searching websites. ## Onboarding Interview Infer the topic and output format from context. Before starting, unless already specified, always ask one short question to define the scope: > "How long do you want this research task to run?" Map the answer to a depth tier in the Collection Plan below: - A few minutes → Quick - ~10-15 minutes → Thorough - Longer / no limit → Exhaustive If the topic itself is unclear, you may ask at most 1-2 additional concise …

How to install
mdr add firecrawl/skills/firecrawl-deep-research@sha256:dfd224ee3eed753bThe line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
