"All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost." A research report is only worth reading if you can check it, so this one checks itself.

v0.3.0 is the release that announces /deep-research. The command shipped inside v0.2.3 without a word in its notes. This is the word.

The Seeing-Stone: /deep-research

Type /deep-research and a topic:

/deep-research how well do LLM-as-judge scores agree with human ratings

RIFT writes a short brief first, then splits the question into angles and sends one subagent down each. They read papers (OpenAlex, Semantic Scholar, arXiv), code, and what practitioners say in public. Every claim a subagent notes has to come with a verbatim quote from a source it actually opened.

The part that makes it worth running comes after the reading. RIFT goes looking for what is not already common knowledge: sources that contradict each other, gaps nobody has filled, work that got overlooked, a method from one field that fits another. Each candidate then gets a kill test, a search for prior work that already says it. Only what survives goes into the findings.

You get three files in research/<topic>/: report.md, report.tex, and a compiled report.pdf.

  • It proves its citations before it calls the report done. A checker matches every citation key across the notes, both reports and the bibliography, resolves every DOI, arXiv id and URL, spot-checks quotes against their sources, and builds the PDF.
  • The report argues instead of listing. It is organised by theme, not by source, and every factual sentence carries a citation. Opinion is marked as the report's own.
  • It needs two things on your machine. Python 3 for the checker, and tectonic for the PDF (brew install tectonic). Without tectonic you still get the Markdown and LaTeX.
  • The home screen tells you about it. There is a new tip for it in the rotation, and /deep-research is listed in the README next to /share, /mcp and /remotion.

The workflow is inspired by Deep-Research-skills.

Already in your hands

If you are on v0.2.3 you have /deep-research today, and the koi from that release. The pond when you go quiet, the logo turning into koi, and the small koi that swim past the composer while you type are all in the v0.2.3 notes. Nothing about them changed here.

The minor version moves because a command that writes a cited report is a new capability, not a patch.
