Description
Conduct multi-source research with synthesized reports and citations. Searches the web, reads full content from key sources, and produces structured reports....
README (SKILL.md)
Deep Research
Produce thorough, cited research reports from multiple web sources using search and fetch tools.
When to Activate
- User asks to research any topic in depth
- Competitive analysis, technology evaluation, or market sizing
- Due diligence on companies, investors, or technologies
- User says "research", "deep dive", "investigate", or "what's the current state of"
Quick Start
- Clarify goal — "learning, decision, or writing?"
- Plan 3-5 research sub-questions
- Execute multi-source search using
web_search(15-30 sources total) - Deep-read 3-5 key sources with
web_fetch - Synthesize findings into structured report with citations
Key Concepts
- Multi-source synthesis — Combine data from academic, official, reputable news sources
- Citation discipline — Every claim must have a source; cross-reference critical facts
- Recency focus — Prefer sources from the last 12 months
- Separate fact from inference — Label estimates, projections, and opinions clearly
- Acknowledge gaps — Say "insufficient data found" rather than hallucinate
Common Usage
Most frequent patterns:
- Competitive landscapes and market sizing
- Technology evaluations ("Rust vs Go")
- Business strategy research ("bootstrapping SaaS")
- Current events and trends
- Due diligence on companies or products

Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent and low-risk: it only describes web search/fetch and synthesis and asks for no secrets or installs. Before enabling, confirm the agent tools it calls (web_search, web_fetch) are trustworthy and configured to respect privacy (they will make network requests). If you plan to save long reports, verify where files will be written and whether those files may contain sensitive personal data. Finally, be mindful when requesting investigations that involve personal or sensitive information — the skill will gather public web sources, which may include PII or legally sensitive material.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: deep-research-ecc
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle defines a 'deep-research-agent' designed to conduct multi-source web research and generate cited reports. The instructions in SKILL.md and workflow.md outline a legitimate process for information gathering using standard web_search and web_fetch tools. There is no evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or unauthorized execution; the behavior is entirely consistent with the stated purpose of deep research.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name and description match the runtime instructions: plan sub-questions, run web_search across many sources, deep-read key URLs with web_fetch, and synthesize reports. There are no unrelated binaries, credentials, or config paths requested.
Instruction Scope
Instructions stay within research scope (search, fetch, read, synthesize). They explicitly call web_search and web_fetch (network calls) and recommend saving long reports to a file; the SKILL.md does not instruct reading local system files or accessing secrets. Caveat: actual behavior depends on the agent's implementation of web_search/web_fetch (which perform network access and may have their own permissions/endpoints).
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files — instruction-only skill. This minimizes disk-write/installation risk.
Credentials
No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are required. The skill's needs are minimal and proportional to a web-research task.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill is user-invocable; it does not request permanent or elevated presence. It does not modify other skills or system-wide settings.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install deep-research-ecc - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/deep-research-ecc - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
