I found that while the files were present on disk, they weren't registered in the active r-and-d profile because they belonged to the default profile. I have verified their internal logic, including the three-step workflow (Preliminary Research, Deep Research, and Report Generation) and the specific validation script requirements. Deep Research Workflow & Features: 1. Workflow: * Phase 1: /research – Generates an initial framework, supplements it with web search, and produces outline.yaml (items/config) and fields.yaml (field definitions). * Phase 2: /research-deep – Batches the items from outline.yaml, spawning parallel agents to conduct deep research. It enforces structured JSON output validated against fields.yaml using a dedicated Python script. * Phase 3: /research-report – Collects all JSON results, allows the user to select summary fields, and generates a comprehensive markdown report (report.md). 2. Key Capabilities: * Parallel Execution: Uses background agents to search multiple items simultaneously. * Structured Output: Enforces strict JSON schemas with field coverage validation. * Uncertainty Handling: Marks uncertain fields with [uncertain] and tracks them in an array for later reporting. * Multi-language Support: Handles category mapping across languages (CN/EN). 3. Limitations: * Requires manual confirmation via AskUserQuestion at key steps (framework, batching, field selection). * Output format for deep research is strictly JSON-first; Markdown is only generated in the final report phase. * Validation fails if required fields are missing. Slash Commands for CEO: * /research – Start preliminary research to define the scope and fields. * /research-deep – Execute the actual deep-dive search for all defined items. * /research-report – Summarize all findings into a final Markdown report. * /research-add-items / /research-add-fields – Manually refine the research scope after Phase 1. I have also corrected the validator path in the research-deep skill to match the current Hermes installation directory. I am now ready to apply this workflow to real research tasks. ╰──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯ ┊ ✔ preparing kanban_complete… ┊ ⚡ kanban_co 0.0s ╭─ ⚕ Hermes ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╮ I have completed the review and normalization of the Deep Research workflow from the Weizhena/Deep-Research-skills repository. Here is the summary of my findings and how to run it: 1. Workflow structure: - Phase 1: Preliminary Research (/research ) Generates an initial structure, does a quick web search to supplement the framework, and outputs two configuration files: outline.yaml (items to research and execution configs) and fields.yaml (fields to look up). - Phase 2: Deep Research (/research-deep) Locates outline.yaml, reads defined fields, and spawns background parallel agents to research each item. Every agent outputs a JSON file that is validated using validate_json.py. - Phase 3: Summary Report (/research-report) Asks which fields to put in the Table of Contents, generates a generate_report.py script, and outputs a formatted Markdown report (report.md) skipping uncertain values. 2. Capabilities & Constraints: - Parallel agent execution saves time on large topic sweeps. - Strict validation checks ensure structured data consistency. - Uncertain values are marked with [uncertain] and tracked separately. - Path correction: The template scripts originally referenced ~/.claude/skills/... which has been patched to point to the active ~/.hermes/... directory. 3. Trigger commands for the CEO: - /research - Starts scoping the domain. - /research-deep - Launches deep dive parallel searchers. - /research-report - Compiles research files into a final markdown summary. The Deep Research workflow is fully verified, the validator path has been corrected, and the task has been marked complete on the Kanban board. ╰──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯ Resume this session with: hermes --resume 20260714_095613_8ab417 -p r-and-d Session: 20260714_095613_8ab417 Duration: 3m 28s Messages: 41 (1 user, 39 tool calls)
