About this skill
name: structured-deep-research description: Force multi-source web research to converge on a defended answer, not a hedge. Query decomposition plus triangulation across many URLs. Use when working on structured deep research.
Structured Deep Research
Adds structure to Claude's deep research: query decomposition, source triangulation across dozens of URLs, and a defended top-pick answer. Especially useful for tactical questions where 'here are three perspectives' is the wrong answer. Use when you want a real recommendation, not a list of options.
What you get
- Question decomposition
- Source list with credibility scores
- Consensus finding
- Single recommended answer with rationale
- Dissenting-view summary
- Followup questions
Customize your output
- Recency window: 30, 90, 365 days
- Source domain whitelist: comma list
- Source domain blacklist: comma list
- Depth: 25 sources, 50, 100
- Output format: markdown, HTML report, plain paragraph
- Confidence bar: low, medium, high floor
Example output
'Best colors for YouTube thumbnails to raise CTR: red plus yellow contrast, evidence pulled from 42 sources.'
Best for
Marketers, analysts, founders.
Note: High confidence. Beats Claude's default research when you want an actionable answer.
