Research agent and report

Researching a topic is not an “ask and get a paragraph”, but a guided process. A strong research agent works like this: it breaks down a topic into specific questions, looks for facts for each through tools, separates verified from opinion, and puts everything into a predetermined report structure. Mechanics: if you ask questions and sections yourself, the agent will not be vague in general terms, but will cover exactly what you need. Insider trick: require a source link for each statement and the “no source - mark as speculation” rule. This turns a beautiful retelling into a verifiable report. The second technique is to set the structure in advance: for example, “essence”, “facts with links”, “risks”, “conclusion”. The finished frame prevents the agent from spreading and facilitates inspection. A typical mistake is to accept a confident resume without a single reference: it sounds convincing, but there is nothing to double-check, and fiction is easily hidden inside. Break the topic into questions, set sections, ask for sources - and instead of a smooth text, you will receive a report on which you can rely in making a decision.
