Research Orchestration
Overview
Orchestrates 5-10 parallel research agents for comprehensive, multi-source research. Achieves up to 90% faster results compared to sequential research through concurrent execution.
Research Depths
| Depth | Agent Count | Use Case | |-------|------------|----------| | Shallow | 5 | Quick fact-finding, simple queries | | Medium | 7 | Standard research, moderate complexity | | Deep | 10 | Comprehensive analysis, complex queries |
Process Flow
- Plan: Decompose query into independent sub-queries
- Dispatch: Run 5-10 research agents in parallel
- Synthesize: Merge findings, identify consensus and conflicts
- Validate: Cross-reference against codebase for accuracy
Sources
- Codebase: source files, patterns, implementations
- Documentation: README, JSDoc, inline comments
- Configuration: package.json, tsconfig, CI/CD configs
Confidence Scoring
Overall confidence is a weighted average of individual agent confidence scores, adjusted by validation results. Below 70% triggers human review.
When to Use
/research [query]slash command- Before specification creation
- When investigating unfamiliar parts of the codebase
