majiayu000 Research Workflow
Follow this systematic approach for research, fact-finding, or web verification tasks.
Core Workflow
1. Initial Analysis
- Break down the query into core components
- Identify key concepts and relationships
- Plan search and verification strategy
- Determine which tools will be most effective
2. Primary Search (Brave Search)
- Start with broad context searches
- Use targeted follow-up searches for specific aspects
- Apply search parameters strategically (count, offset)
- Document and analyze search results
3. Deep Verification (Puppeteer/WebFetch)
- Navigate to key websites identified in search
- Take screenshots of relevant content
- Extract specific data points
- Click through and explore relevant links
4. Data Processing
- Use REPL/Analysis for complex calculations
- Process CSV files or structured data
- Create visualizations when helpful
5. Synthesis & Presentation
- Combine findings from all tools
- Present in structured format
- Highlight key insights and relationships
Brave Search Guidelines
CRITICAL RATE LIMIT: 1 request per second
- NEVER make consecutive calls without sleeping 1+ seconds
- OR run a different command between searches
Best practices:
- Use
countparameter for result volume - Apply
offsetfor pagination - Combine multiple related searches
- Document queries for reproducibility
- Include full URLs, titles, descriptions
- Note search date/time for each query
Puppeteer Guidelines
- Take screenshots of key evidence
- Use selectors precisely for interaction
- Handle navigation errors gracefully
- Document URLs and interaction paths
- Verify you arrived at correct page; retry if not
Source Documentation Requirements
All findings must include:
- Full URLs and titles
- Access dates
- Source links for quotes
- Citation metadata from search results
Best Practices
- Use tools proactively in parallel when appropriate
- Document each step of analysis
- Complex tasks should trigger the full workflow
- Always verify critical information from multiple sources
