Cited Research Report
Produce a rigorously cited research report that answers a specific question end to end: a planner first decomposes the question into sub-questions and locks the scope, then a researcher gathers and logs primary and secondary sources with inline citations, then a copywriter writes a structured markdown report (executive summary, findings, evidence, limitations, references). The ordering matters because a small model that writes before scoping rambles and a model that writes without a source log fabricates citations; locking sub-questions and a source table first turns the report into a fill-in-the-evidence exercise. Use this for literature-backed analysis, deep dives, investigative write-ups, background research, and any 'find out and write it up with sources' task where every claim must trace to a citation.
How it runs
| # | Step | Who runs it | What happens |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Question scope | Planner | decompose the question into sub-questions + lock scope |
| 2 | Research & source log | Researcher | gather sources, log each with a citation key + key facts |
| 3 | Write the report | Copywriter | write the cited markdown report to the locked structure |
| 4 | Evaluate | Reviewer | Grade the deliverable against every acceptance criterion. All pass → finish; any fail → loop back and fix the gap. |
| 5 | Finish | Developer | All acceptance criteria met. Stamp a short summary and report DONE. |
Say something like "write a research report" or "research this question with sources" or "cited report" or "deep dive on a topic" or "investigate and write it up" in chat to start it.
