deep-research

Multi-source deep research using firecrawl and exa MCPs. Searches the web, synthesizes findings, and delivers cited reports with source attribution. Use when the user wants thorough research on any topic with evidence and citations.

Quality

Content

77%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

An actionable, clearly sequenced research workflow with concrete tool calls and verification rules, held back mainly by a monolithic single-file structure and a slightly verbose report template. Splitting supporting material into referenced files would push it higher.

Suggestions

Move the full report markdown scaffold into a referenced file (e.g. report-template.md) and keep only a brief structural summary inline, to improve progressive disclosure and conciseness.

Trim or remove the trailing "Examples" section — its trigger phrases duplicate the "When to Activate" list without adding actionable guidance.

Consider extracting the "Quality Rules" into a short referenced checklist so the main workflow stays focused on the procedural steps.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Largely lean with no explanation of concepts Claude already knows, but the ~30-line report scaffold and the trailing "Examples" section (which repeats trigger phrasing) could be tightened without losing clarity.

2 / 3

Actionability

Provides concrete, copy-paste-ready MCP tool calls with arguments (e.g. firecrawl_search(query, limit: 8), crawling_exa(url, tokensNum: 5000)) plus specific numeric targets like "15-30 unique sources" and "3-5 key sources."

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

Six steps are clearly sequenced (Understand → Plan → Execute → Deep-Read → Synthesize → Deliver) with branching guidance and a "Quality Rules" checklist serving as explicit verification (cross-reference, flag unverified, acknowledge gaps).

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

Sections are well-organized but the skill is a single ~150-line monolithic file with no bundle files or one-level-deep references to split out the report template or quality rules.

Description

100%

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong, well-formed description: concrete actions, an explicit Use-when trigger, third-person voice, and a clearly distinct niche tied to specific MCPs. No significant weaknesses to address.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions — "Searches the web, synthesizes findings, and delivers cited reports with source attribution" — matching the anchor for naming several specific concrete actions.

3 / 3

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what (multi-source deep research, searching, synthesizing, delivering cited reports) and when via the explicit "Use when the user wants thorough research on any topic with evidence and citations" clause.

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Includes natural terms users would say — "thorough research," "research," "evidence and citations" — giving good coverage rather than technical jargon.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Has a clear niche (multi-source deep research via firecrawl and exa MCPs) with distinct triggers, making conflict with other skills unlikely.
