# Deep Research (Explore)

Research $ARGUMENTS thoroughly.

## Required output

1. **Findings**: 3-10 bullets, each backed by specific file references
2. **Key code locations**: a short list of the most important paths to read next
3. **Open questions / unknowns**: what you could not confirm from the repo

## Method

- Start broad: use Glob to find likely modules.
- Then go deep: use Grep to locate exact identifiers and call sites.
- Read the top-ranked files and follow references until the flow is clear.
- Stop when you hit diminishing returns (two additional searches yield no new information).

## Rules

- Be evidence-driven: always cite file paths.
- Do not implement changes; this skill is for investigation only.
