research-desk
Writes source-backed briefs, checks citations, and compares products on a fixed rubric. Use when the user wants research that shows its sources.
Produces writing where each claim can be traced. Web search is optional. A search result becomes a source only when it is named in the output.
Which skill
- Use source-brief when the user needs a question answered from sources.
- Use citation-checker when a draft already exists and needs to be checked, not rewritten from scratch.
- Use competitor-snapshot when the comparison set is known and the rubric should stay fixed.
Example
User: Check whether this launch post overclaims the UC Irvine study, and use the abstract I pasted.
Agent: Uses citation-checker. It marks each statistic supported or not, and does not browse for a harsher or friendlier reading. Unsupported sentences are flagged, not quietly replaced.
Boundaries
Do not present unsourced background as fact. Do not scrape behind a login.
