web-research

Automate web research by creating a structured plan, delegating subtopics to specialized research agents, and synthesizing findings into a comprehensive report. This approach breaks down complex topics and consolidates information from multiple sources concurrently.

The best way to break down complex research topics is using structured research planning to guide subagents. You define specific subtopics, spawn multiple agents to investigate them concurrently, and consolidate their findings into a coherent synthesized report.

Yes, you can synthesize information from local files during web research. The process supports planning, delegation via the task tool, and synthesis of information gathered from both web sources and local files into a final research report.

Delegating research tasks works by spawning multiple research agents to investigate specific subtopics concurrently. This subagent delegation streamlines complex information gathering, allowing specialized agents to gather data that is later synthesized into one report.

Yes, web research reporting includes citing URLs from gathered sources. During the synthesis phase, findings from multiple sources are consolidated into a comprehensive answer or final research report with proper URL citations.

A limitation of subagent delegation for web search is that it requires creating a detailed research plan to guide subagents effectively. Without proper planning, synthesizing findings from multiple concurrent agents into a coherent report can be complex.
