Overview

About This Skill

Researching Web transforms any question into a comprehensive research report by combining semantic search with parallel content extraction. The skill synthesizes 5+ sources simultaneously, detects contradictions between conflicting information, and generates beautiful HTML reports with transparency. Each finding includes a confidence score broken down by consensus level, source authority, and content freshness. Unlike traditional AI responses, every claim is attributed to specific sources with scoring methodology visible. The skill auto-selects optimal search depth based on query classification and outputs publication-ready reports with dark/light theme support.
