## ⚠️ EXECUTION CONTRACT (MANDATORY - CANNOT SKIP) <HARD-GATE> **CRITICAL: You MUST call orchestrate.sh via the Bash tool. Do NOT research the topic yourself. Do NOT use Task agents, web search, or your own knowledge as a substitute. The ONLY valid execution path is: Bash → orchestrate.sh probe. If you produce research findings without a Bash call to orchestrate.sh, you have violated this contract.** </HARD-GATE> This skill uses **ENFORCED execution mode**. You MUST follow this exact sequence. ### STEP 1: Interactive Questions (BLOCKING - Answer before proceeding) **You MUST call AskUserQuestion with all 3 questions below BEFORE any other action.** ```javascript AskUserQuestion({ questions: [ { question: "How deep should the research go?", header: "Research Depth", multiSelect: false, options: [ {label: "Quick overview (Recommended)", description: "1-2 min, surface-level"}, {label: "Moderate depth", description: "2-3 min, standard"}, {label: "Comprehensive", description: "3-4 min, thorough"}, {label: "Deep dive", description: "4-5 min, exhaustive"} ] }, { question: "What's your primary focus area?", header: "Primary Focus", multiSelect: false, options: [ {label: "Technical implementation (Recommended)", description: "Code patterns, APIs"}, {label: "Best practices", description: "Industry standards"}, {label: "Ecosystem & tools", description: "Librar...

deep-research

Conduct enterprise-grade research with multi-source synthesis, citation tracking, and verification. Use when user needs comprehensive analysis requiring 10+ sources, verified claims, or comparison of approaches. Triggers include "deep research", "comprehensive analysis", "research report", "compare X vs Y", or "analyze trends". Do NOT use for simple lookups, debugging, or questions answerable with 1-2 searches.

deep-research

Deep research skill — broad parallel web searches, multi-source validation, confidence tracking, cited Markdown report. Supports 11 research types: market (TAM/SAM, segments, pricing, trends), domain (industry structure, ecosystem, regulatory landscape), technical (architecture, tools, benchmarks), competitive (competitor teardown, positioning, win/loss), product (feature analysis, reviews, roadmap signals), academic (literature survey, citation networks, key authors), person/org (due diligence on a company or public figure), financial (funding rounds, valuation multiples, revenue signals), legal (IP, patents, litigation, compliance), trend (emerging signals, foresight, scenario mapping), community (ecosystem health, key voices, governance, fragmentation). Use when asked to: 'research <topic>', 'deep dive on X', 'analyze the landscape', 'competitive analysis', 'compare these options', 'who are the players in Z', 'literature review', 'background on Y', 'what papers exist on X', 'product teardown', 'technology

interactive-research

Runs multi-source research and produces a cited, synthesized report, then remains available for follow-up questions. Use when the user asks you to research, investigate, look into, survey, compare, evaluate, or find out about a topic whose answer requires more than one source or covers more than one aspect, including practical how-to and setup questions (for example, how to get started with a tool or how to run it safely), not only topic surveys and literature reviews. Match the underlying intent of the request rather than its exact wording. Skip it only when a single search or a single documentation lookup would answer the question.
