Deep Research

深度研究

Produce thorough, cited research reports from multiple web sources using firecrawl and exa MCP tools.
借助firecrawl和exa MCP工具，基于多个网页来源生成详尽的带引用研究报告。

When to Activate

激活场景

  • User asks to research any topic in depth
  • Competitive analysis, technology evaluation, or market sizing
  • Due diligence on companies, investors, or technologies
  • Any question requiring synthesis from multiple sources
  • User says "research", "deep dive", "investigate", or "what's the current state of"
  • 用户要求对任意主题进行深度研究
  • 竞品分析、技术评估或市场规模测算
  • 对企业、投资者或技术开展尽职调查
  • 任何需要整合多来源信息的问题
  • 用户提及“研究”“深度剖析”“调查”或“当前现状如何”

Workflow

工作流程

Step 1: Understand the Goal

步骤1：明确目标

Ask 1-2 quick clarifying questions:
  • "What's your goal — learning, making a decision, or writing something?"
  • "Any specific angle or depth you want?"
If the user says "just research it" — skip ahead with reasonable defaults.
提出1-2个快速澄清问题：
  • “你的目标是什么——学习知识、制定决策还是撰写内容？”
  • “是否有特定的研究角度或深度要求？”
如果用户表示“直接研究即可”——则采用合理默认设置继续。

Step 2: Plan the Research

步骤2：规划研究内容

Break the topic into 3-5 research sub-questions. Example:
  • Topic: "Impact of AI on healthcare"
    • What are the main AI applications in healthcare today?
    • What clinical outcomes have been measured?
    • What are the regulatory challenges?
    • What companies are leading this space?
    • What's the market size and growth trajectory?
将主题拆解为3-5个研究子问题。示例：
  • 主题：“AI对医疗保健的影响”
    • 当前医疗保健领域的主要AI应用有哪些？
    • 已测得哪些临床效果？
    • 面临哪些监管挑战？
    • 该领域的领先企业有哪些？
    • 市场规模及增长趋势如何？

Step 3: Execute Multi-Source Search

步骤3：执行多源搜索

For EACH sub-question, search using available MCP tools:
With firecrawl:
firecrawl_search(query: "<sub-question keywords>", limit: 8)
With exa:
web_search_exa(query: "<sub-question keywords>", numResults: 8)
web_search_advanced_exa(query: "<keywords>", numResults: 5, startPublishedDate: "2025-01-01")
Search strategy:
  • Use 2-3 different keyword variations per sub-question
  • Mix general and news-focused queries
  • Aim for 15-30 unique sources total
  • Prioritize: academic, official, reputable news > blogs > forums
针对每个子问题，使用可用的MCP工具进行搜索：
使用firecrawl时：
firecrawl_search(query: "<子问题关键词>", limit: 8)
使用exa时：
web_search_exa(query: "<子问题关键词>", numResults: 8)
web_search_advanced_exa(query: "<关键词>", numResults: 5, startPublishedDate: "2025-01-01")
搜索策略：
  • 每个子问题使用2-3种不同的关键词变体
  • 混合使用通用查询和新闻类查询
  • 目标获取15-30个独特来源
  • 优先级：学术资源、官方信息、权威新闻 > 博客 > 论坛

Step 4: Deep-Read Key Sources

步骤4：深度阅读关键来源

For the most promising URLs, fetch full content:
With firecrawl:
firecrawl_scrape(url: "<url>")
With exa:
crawling_exa(url: "<url>", tokensNum: 5000)
Read 3-5 key sources in full for depth. Do not rely only on search snippets.
针对最具价值的URL，获取完整内容：
使用firecrawl时：
firecrawl_scrape(url: "<url>")
使用exa时：
crawling_exa(url: "<url>", tokensNum: 5000)
深度阅读3-5个关键来源，不要仅依赖搜索摘要。

Step 5: Synthesize and Write Report

步骤5：整合并撰写报告

Structure the report:
markdown
undefined
报告结构如下：
markdown
undefined

Parallel Research with Subagents

借助子代理进行并行研究

For broad topics, use Claude Code's Task tool to parallelize:
Launch 3 research agents in parallel:
1. Agent 1: Research sub-questions 1-2
2. Agent 2: Research sub-questions 3-4
3. Agent 3: Research sub-question 5 + cross-cutting themes
Each agent searches, reads sources, and returns findings. The main session synthesizes into the final report.
针对宽泛主题，使用Claude Code的Task工具实现并行处理：
并行启动3个研究代理：
1. 代理1：研究子问题1-2
2. 代理2：研究子问题3-4
3. 代理3：研究子问题5 + 跨领域主题
每个代理负责搜索、阅读来源并返回研究结果，主会话将这些结果整合成最终报告。

Quality Rules

质量规则

  1. Every claim needs a source. No unsourced assertions.
  2. Cross-reference. If only one source says it, flag it as unverified.
  3. Recency matters. Prefer sources from the last 12 months.
  4. Acknowledge gaps. If you couldn't find good info on a sub-question, say so.
  5. No hallucination. If you don't know, say "insufficient data found."
  6. Separate fact from inference. Label estimates, projections, and opinions clearly.
  1. 所有主张均需标注来源。不得出现无来源的断言。
  2. 交叉验证。若仅有单一来源提及某内容，需标记为未验证。
  3. 时效性优先。优先选择过去12个月内的来源。
  4. 如实说明信息缺口。若无法找到某子问题的优质信息，需明确告知。
  5. 禁止虚构内容。若信息未知，需说明“未找到足够数据”。
  6. 区分事实与推论。明确标记估算、预测和观点内容。
