This skill should be used when the user asks for "deep research", "research team", "comprehensive analysis", "research report", "investigate thoroughly", "compare X vs Y in depth", or needs synthesis across multiple sources with verification. It spawns a coordinated team of researcher agents across multiple rounds, with the lead triaging findings and creating targeted follow-up tasks. Scales from Focused (2 researchers, 1-2 rounds) to Comprehensive (4 researchers, 3-4 rounds with cross-verificat

Conduct thorough, iterative research by coordinating a persistent team of researcher agents across multiple rounds. This architecture enables mid-investigation steering, targeted follow-up based on emerging findings, and cross-agent verification.

Key principles:
No peer-to-peer researcher communication. All coordination goes through the lead. This preserves the independence that accounts for 87% of multi-agent gains (Choi et al.) and avoids sycophancy failures (Wynn et al.). Researchers never see each other's findings.
Multi-round iteration. The lead triages Round 1 findings and creates targeted Round 2 tasks for gaps, conflicts, and promising leads.
Cross-agent verification (Comprehensive scope). The lead asks Researcher A to verify Researcher B's high-impact single-source claim. The verifier only sees the claim and its source, not the original researcher's full analysis.
