deep-research​

10-stage deep research pipeline: Planner → Search → Retrieve → Collect → Verify → Resolve → Graph → Cite → Report → Export. Driven by a stage-contract driver that validates every stage's artifacts, checkpoints each boundary, and resumes. Produces persistent research packages (OKF-aligned knowledge assets) with labelled claims, a provenance sidecar, citations, confidence scores, knowledge graphs, and contradiction tracking. Integrates with surreal-memory, liter-llm, sycophancy-correction, and Feynman learning skills. Supersedes disposable report generation with structured knowledge infrastructure.

stage-01-planner (sub-skill)​

Deep research Stage 01 — Planner. Decomposes a research query into structured sub-questions, a search strategy, and a token budget. Produces the research plan that drives all subsequent stages.

v1.0.0 · deep-research stage-01 planner query-decomposition research-plan · source

stage-02-search (sub-skill)​

Deep research Stage 02 — Search. Executes web searches for each sub-question from the research plan. Deduplicates URLs, filters low-quality domains, and produces a ranked source list for Stage 03 retrieval.

v1.0.0 · deep-research stage-02 search web-search source-discovery · source

stage-03-retrieve (sub-skill)​

Deep research Stage 03 — Retrieve. Fetches full page content for each source URL from Stage 02 and chunks it into retrievable segments. Handles PDF, HTML, and structured data formats. Outputs content chunks for Stage 04 indexing.

stage-04-collect (sub-skill)​

Deep research Stage 04 — Collect. Indexes content chunks from Stage 03 into surreal-memory as ResearchSource entities. Extracts key claims per chunk for downstream verification and graph building.

stage-05-verify (sub-skill)​

Deep research Stage 05 — Verify. Scores each source for credibility using a 5-dimension rubric. Applies sycophancy-correction bias detection to source framing. Filters low-credibility sources before graph building.

stage-06-resolve (sub-skill)​

Deep research Stage 06 — Resolve. Detects contradictions between source claims and resolves them using structured strategies (authority, recency, consensus). Escalates to pmpo-elicit when contradictions cannot be resolved autonomously.

v1.0.0 · deep-research stage-06 resolve contradiction-detection pmpo-elicit · source

stage-07-graph (sub-skill)​

Deep research Stage 07 — Graph. Builds a knowledge graph in surreal-memory from verified sources and resolved claims. Creates entities for topics, claims, and sources, with typed relations between them. Exports graph.json for the .research package.

v1.0.0 · deep-research stage-07 knowledge-graph surreal-memory entity-relations · source

stage-08-cite (sub-skill)​

Deep research Stage 08 — Cite. Generates formatted citations for all verified sources used in resolved claims. Assigns per-citation confidence scores. Supports APA 7, MLA 9, Chicago 17, IEEE, and Vancouver styles.

v1.0.0 · deep-research stage-08 citations bibliography confidence-scores · source

stage-09-report (sub-skill)​

Deep research Stage 09 — Report. Synthesizes all resolved claims, citations, and graph data into an OKF-compliant research report. Passes the draft through the Feynman quality gate (learn-grade) before delivery. Confidence score is computed from source credibility and claim resolution confidence.

v1.0.0 · deep-research stage-09 report synthesis feynman-gate learn-grade okf · source

stage-10-export (sub-skill)​

Deep research Stage 10 — Export. Assembles the complete .research package from all stage outputs. Writes manifest.json (OKF + Prometheus extensions), index.md, and all data files. Optionally ingests the package into surreal-memory palace.
