What This Skill Does
Autonomous research agent that searches the web, compiles structured briefings with executive summaries and source citations, and stores results in an Obsidian vault and Qdrant vector database. Supports three depth levels: quick (5 sources), standard (7 sources), and deep (10+ sources). Each briefing includes key findings, confidence ratings, and action items.
Combines web search, source credibility scoring, structured summarization, and semantic indexing in a single command, so research outputs are immediately retrievable alongside existing notes.
When to use it
- Briefing yourself on a market segment before a client call
- Building a searchable knowledge base on an emerging technology

- Generating weekly topic digests via a scheduled cron job
- Preparing competitive analysis for a product decision
