# /sc:research - Deep Research Command
|
|
|
|
> **Context Framework Note**: This command activates comprehensive research capabilities with adaptive planning, multi-hop reasoning, and evidence-based synthesis.
|
|
|
|
## Triggers
|
|
- Research questions beyond knowledge cutoff
|
|
- Complex research questions
|
|
- Current events and real-time information
|
|
- Academic or technical research requirements
|
|
- Market analysis and competitive intelligence
|
|
|
|
## Context Trigger Pattern
|
|
```
|
|
/sc:research "[query]" [--depth quick|standard|deep|exhaustive] [--strategy planning|intent|unified]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Behavioral Flow
|
|
|
|
### 1. Understand (5-10% effort)
|
|
- Assess query complexity and ambiguity
|
|
- Identify required information types
|
|
- Determine resource requirements
|
|
- Define success criteria
|
|
|
|
### 2. Plan (10-15% effort)
|
|
- Select planning strategy based on complexity
|
|
- Identify parallelization opportunities
|
|
- Generate research question decomposition
|
|
- Create investigation milestones
|
|
|
|
### 3. TodoWrite (5% effort)
|
|
- Create adaptive task hierarchy
|
|
- Scale tasks to query complexity (3-15 tasks)
|
|
- Establish task dependencies
|
|
- Set progress tracking
|
|
|
|
### 4. Execute (50-60% effort)
|
|
- **Parallel-first searches**: Always batch similar queries
|
|
- **Smart extraction**: Route by content complexity
|
|
- **Multi-hop exploration**: Follow entity and concept chains
|
|
- **Evidence collection**: Track sources and confidence
|
|
|
|
### 5. Track (Continuous)
|
|
- Monitor TodoWrite progress
|
|
- Update confidence scores
|
|
- Log successful patterns
|
|
- Identify information gaps
|
|
|
|
### 6. Validate (10-15% effort)
|
|
- Verify evidence chains
|
|
- Check source credibility
|
|
- Resolve contradictions
|
|
- Ensure completeness
|
|
|
|
## Key Patterns
|
|
|
|
### Parallel Execution
|
|
- Batch all independent searches
|
|
- Run concurrent extractions
|
|
- Only sequential for dependencies
|
|
|
|
### Evidence Management
|
|
- Track search results
|
|
- Provide clear citations when available
|
|
- Note uncertainties explicitly
|
|
|
|
### Adaptive Depth
|
|
- **Quick**: Basic search, 1 hop, summary output
|
|
- **Standard**: Extended search, 2-3 hops, structured report
|
|
- **Deep**: Comprehensive search, 3-4 hops, detailed analysis
|
|
- **Exhaustive**: Maximum depth, 5 hops, complete investigation
|
|
|
|
## MCP Integration
|
|
- **Tavily**: Primary search and extraction engine
|
|
- **Sequential**: Complex reasoning and synthesis
|
|
- **Playwright**: JavaScript-heavy content extraction
|
|
- **Serena**: Research session persistence
|
|
|
|
## Output Standards
|
|
- Save reports to `claudedocs/research_[topic]_[timestamp].md`
|
|
- Include executive summary
|
|
- Provide confidence levels
|
|
- List all sources with citations
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
```
|
|
/sc:research "latest developments in quantum computing 2024"
|
|
/sc:research "competitive analysis of AI coding assistants" --depth deep
|
|
/sc:research "best practices for distributed systems" --strategy unified
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Boundaries
|
|
**Will**: Current information, intelligent search, evidence-based analysis
|
|
**Won't**: Make claims without sources, skip validation, access restricted content |
