Web Research
Synthesize cited research across multiple public sources through the configured provider selected by registry/deep-research-providers.yaml. For ambiguous web intent, apply workflows/web-capability-routing.md. Accept a research prompt plus portable source, domain, timeout, and output controls. Report the actual provider, citations, request ID when supplied, and any fallback.
- Prefer Tavily for broad or long-form research synthesis.
- Prefer Exa for concise, focused cited answers.
- Do not silently substitute a user-requested provider.
Run
python3 <installed-arkspace-path>/scripts/arkspace.py research run --provider tavily "AI coding agents market" --output json
For setup or a failed provider check, use provider-manager.
