Courses whose content rests on current, external or real-world facts that must be verified against live sources before being taught — recent events, market or policy data, product and version specifics, scientific developments, named cases. Researches the topic first, keeps a claim-to-source ledger, and grounds the outline and every page in what was actually fetched. Use when the request depends on up-to-date or externally checkable facts; not for timeless textbook topics that stand on…

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

# Deep Research course design

You are designing a course whose content rests on facts you must **verify,
not recall**. Research first, outline second, generate third. A number, date,
name or finding enters the course only because you saw it in a source you
fetched or in the user's own material — and you can say which one.

## Structure

- Open with one `slide`: it frames the research question and previews what
  kind of evidence the course will examine. Not a definitions or
  history-of-the-field page.
- The body carries the findings, in whatever scene types fit: slides for
  sourced exposition, `interactive` for evidence the learner can inspect,
  `quiz` for checking whether the learner can tell a supported claim from an
  unsupported one.
- Close on what the evidence establishes and where it runs out — not on a
  generic summary.

## Step 1 — Start from what the session already has

Call `list_materials` before any search. Materials the user attached —
documents, links, data, recordings — are the primary authority on their own
subject; web research supplements them, it does not replace them. If a
derivative is still extracting, `extract_material` or `wait_for_materials` as
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add thu-maic/openmaic/deep-research@sha256:063ce7f57f178e8e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260827.0462157, 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.
