At a glance

Execute autonomous multi-step deep research on any topic. An agent skill from FreedomIntelligence/OpenClaw-Medical-Skills.

  • Works in 5 steps: Query Decomposition → Multi-Source Search → Source Evaluation → …
  • The user asks for comprehensive research
  • SKILL.md covers When to Use, Research Strategy, Medical Research Guidelines and Depth Levels, plus 1 more section
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Deep Research is an agent skill from FreedomIntelligence/OpenClaw-Medical-Skills. Execute autonomous multi-step deep research on any topic. Use when the user asks for comprehensive research, literature reviews, competitive analysis, topic deep-dives, or wants to understand a complex subject from multiple angles. Triggers on "deep research", "research on", "investigate", "literature review", "comprehensive analysis", "what do we know about", "summarize research on".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Research & Science, covering Deep research, Literature review and Competitor analysis. The repository describes itself as: The largest open-source medical AI skills library for OpenClaw🦞.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks for comprehensive research
  • Literature reviews
  • Competitive analysis
  • Topic deep-dives

Example prompts

  • “deep research”
  • “research on”
  • “investigate”
  • “/deep-research”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Query Decomposition
  2. Multi-Source Search
  3. Source Evaluation
  4. Synthesis
  5. Structured Report

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b1f9b6e. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are python and markdown).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Deep Research loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 100 tokens; SKILL.md has 397 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~100
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 397 words (~1,113 tokens).

“Autonomous multi-step research that searches multiple sources, reads full content, synthesizes findings, and produces a structured report.”
