Deep Research Storm

# Deep Research (STORM Method)

> Turns the assistant into a deep-research analyst: takes one topic and produces a long-form, multi-perspective, fully cited article — the kind of synthesis you would get from a careful researcher who interviewed several experts, gathered evidence section by section, and reconciled where the sources disagree.

| | |
|---|---|
| **Use when** | You need a thorough, reference-grade write-up on a topic — not a quick answer, but the document you would keep and cite later |
| **Produces** | A 2,500-5,000 word cited article: perspective-driven outline, per-section evidence, contradiction reconciliation, open questions |
| **Depth** | Deep — expect a long, structured article |
| **Pairs with** | [`prompts/research/cross-source-synthesis.md`](cross-source-synthesis.md) · [`output-templates/pdf-reports/`](../../output-templates/pdf-reports/) |
| **Run-time needs** | **None — the prompt block below is fully self-contained.** For the strict voice + a Word / Excel / PDF / HTML deliverable, also attach [`BASE.md`](../../BASE.md) — one prompt + `BASE.md`, never a third file. |
