About

Multi-source deep research that searches the web, synthesizes findings, and delivers cited reports. Uses OpenClaw's built-in search tools. No API keys required. **The research workflow:** 1. **Understand** - Clarify the research question and scope 2. **Plan** - Break into 3-5 targeted sub-questions 3. **Search** - Run multiple searches per question across different angles 4. **Deep-read** - Extract key findings from the best sources 5. **Synthesize** - Cross-reference claims, identify consensus and contradictions 6. **Deliver** - Structured report with inline citations and full source list **Quality rules:** - Every claim has a source. No unsourced assertions. - Single-source claims flagged as unverified - Recent sources preferred (last 12 months) - Gaps acknowledged honestly - "Insufficient data found" when appropriate - zero hallucination Works with any agent. Best on Opus for deepest synthesis, solid on Sonnet for most topics.

Deep Research Pro

Version: 1.1.0 | Changelog

A multi-source deep research skill that searches the web, synthesizes findings, and delivers cited reports. Uses OpenClaw's built-in web_search and web_fetch tools. No API keys required.

Price: Free Type: Skill (universal)

What's Included

SKILL.md - The complete research workflow (6 steps: understand, plan, search, deep-read, synthesize, deliver)

How It Works

Give your agent a research topic. It breaks it into 3-5 sub-questions, runs multiple searches per question, deep-reads the best sources, cross-references claims, and delivers a structured report with inline citations and a full source list.

Quality Rules

Every claim has a source. No unsourced assertions.
Single-source claims flagged as unverified.
Recent sources preferred (last 12 months).
Gaps acknowledged honestly.
Zero hallucination: "insufficient data found" when appropriate.

Install

1. Copy into your agent's workspace

cp -r deep-research-pro/ ~/.openclaw/workspace-{agent-id}/skills/deep-research-pro/

Skills must live inside the agent's workspace. Do not copy to a global skills directory.

2. Add to your agent config

In openclaw.json, add the skill to that agent's skills list:

{
  "id": "{agent-id}",
  "skills": [
    "deep-research-pro"
  ]
}

3. Use it

Ask your agent to research any topic:

"Research the current state of nuclear fusion energy"
"Deep dive into Rust vs Go for backend services"

Requirements

OpenClaw with web_search and web_fetch tools enabled
No external API keys needed

Recommended Model

Best: Opus (deepest synthesis and cross-referencing)
Good: Sonnet (solid for most research tasks)
