Claude Web Research

/claude-web-research — DEPRECATED ALIAS

This skill was renamed to /claude-desktop-research on 2026-04-30.

User correction: BOTH Claude Web AND Claude Desktop have deep research + Drive grounding. The differentiator is local MCP connections — those are unique to Claude Desktop. So the umbrella skill is now /claude-desktop-research (web is the MCP-less subset).

What to do now

• Invoke /claude-desktop-research instead. Same workflow, same Drive layout, plus an MCP pre-flight step.
• This alias retires on 2026-05-30 (~30 days from rename).
• Existing Drive files do not need to be moved. Result file naming is now R{NN}-claude-desktop-result.md going forward; legacy R{NN}-claude-web-result.md files stay where they are (no migration required).

See also

• /claude-desktop-research — the canonical skill (this used to be).
• /research — quick local web search.
• /gemini-research — Gemini Deep Research (visual / batch-frame work).
• /research --unified — paired Drive-grounded dispatch to both Claude Desktop AND Gemini.

(If your invocation reaches THIS file rather than the new canonical, the runtime is resolving the legacy slug. That's expected through 2026-05-30 — please follow the canonical workflow at ~/Gits/golems/skills/golem-powers/claude-desktop-research/SKILL.md regardless.)
