The Agentic Research Pipeline

The full multi-agent research setup that turns a vague question into a cited brief in under an hour: prompts and handoffs included.

This is the full version with the actual prompts and handoff structure.

The pipeline shape

Four stages, each a distinct agent role:

  1. Scout: fans out broad searches and returns a source list
  2. Reader: deep-reads the top sources and extracts claims
  3. Skeptic: tries to refute each claim
  4. Synthesizer: writes the cited brief from what survived

The handoffs

Each stage passes a structured object to the next: never raw text. The full JSON schemas and the exact prompts for each role are in the Prompt Library.

Why it works

Separating "find" from "verify" is the whole trick. A single agent that both finds and trusts its own findings will confidently hand you something wrong. Splitting the roles forces an adversarial check before anything reaches you.
