deep-research-when

WHAT: Decide when the heavy `research` deep-research pipeline (plan -> fanout -> synth -> two-stage review, writing a cited report under ./research/) is worth its time and token cost, versus a cheaper single fetch or subagent. WHEN: The user wants a thorough, multi-source, fact-checked written report on an open question. DO-NOT: Fire it for a single lookup, a question one `ai-fetch-web` call answers, or anything you can settle by reading the repo.
