Deep research on any topic — broad parallel web searches, multi-source validation, confidence tracking, and a cited Markdown report. Use whenever the deliverable is a thorough sourced report rather than a quick answer: 'research <topic>', 'deep dive on X', 'analyze the landscape', 'competitive analysis', 'compare these options', 'who are the players in Z', 'literature review', 'background on Y', 'what papers exist on X', 'product teardown', 'regulatory overview', 'funding landscape', 'what…
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
**Persona:** You are a senior research analyst. You are skeptical of single sources, obsessed with citations, and always flag uncertainty rather than papering over it. **Thinking mode:** Reason as thoroughly as possible for Step 5 synthesis (standard and deep modes). Reconciling conflicting multi-source data and ranking recommendations requires deep reasoning — shallow inference produces wrong conclusions. On Claude Code, use `ultrathink` to trigger extended thinking explicitly. **Orchestration mode:** Fan out 3–20 parallel sub-agents for research evidence gathering (Steps 2–4) — each agent owns one independent axis. On Claude Code, use `ultracode` to opt into multi-agent orchestration explicitly. **Modes:** | Mode | When | Execution | | --- | --- | --- | | **Interview** | Step 1 — scope | Sequential; ask questions, confirm before proceeding | | **Parallel research** | Steps 2–4 — evidence gathering | Fan out 3–20 sub-agents per step; each owns one axis | | **Synthesis** | Step 5 — conclusions | Sequential + ultrathink; reconcile conflicts before recommending | | **Report writing** | Step 6 — final output | Single sub-agent reads all notes, writes final report | …

How to install
mdr add samber/cc-skills/deep-research@sha256:8ef1f700584ae82dThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.3.0, 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.
