Deep, iterative, multi-source research that explores a topic from multiple perspectives, detects contradictions, and produces a comprehensive vault note with fact-level citations and a confidence map. Use this skill whenever the user says /deep-research, "deep research X", "research X thoroughly", "investigate X deeply", "I need to really understand X", or wants research that goes beyond a quick web search. Also use when the user wants to understand a complex, contested, or multi-faceted topic, compare competing approaches with evidence, or build a comprehensive mental model they can trust for decisions. This is heavier than /research — it searches web, academic papers, Reddit, and the vault, then loops through exploration and critique rounds until the evidence base is solid. When in doubt between /research and /deep-research, prefer this one if the topic is complex, contested, or the user wants depth over speed.
