Multi-Agent Research

Wave-based knowledge gathering with deferred synthesis. Mined from 300+ real research dispatches: the pattern that consistently produces actionable intelligence.

Core insight: Research breadth-first, synthesize after. Conclusions drawn from the first three results miss nuance the fourth wave would have surfaced. Deploying agents in waves and accumulating findings before synthesizing produces sharper recommendations.

How to read this skill: calibrate to the question, not the framework. Most research is Quick Mode or one wave plus targeted follow-ups; only deep dives need the full pattern. The Phase 1 budget table sizes it.
