• dispatch_head_of_research

  Heista

  Run a full research workflow via the Head of Research agent. The Head decomposes your brief into specialist sub-questions, dispatches the right combination of 6 specialists (desk, trend, market, quant, qual, social) in parallel via async dispatch, polls them to completion, judges output quality, and returns a structured synthesis. Use for: any source-grounded research request — fact-checking, vendor teardowns, trend assessment, quantitative effect-size analysis, qualitative theme extraction, cross-platform discourse mapping, or any combination. Wall time: 2-5 min typical. Returns: { synthesis, head_session_id, status, event_count, tool_uses, elapsed_ms }. NOT for: non-research requests (writing, coding, casual chat) — respond directly without calling this. Cost: $0.20-1.50 per call depending on brief complexity (specialist token spend + Anthropic session-runtime at $0.08/hr).

• research

  Sofya

  Perform comprehensive research on a topic. Decomposes your query into sub-queries, searches and reads multiple sources in parallel, then synthesizes a structured report with citations. Best for open-ended or comparative questions that need coverage from many angles. For simple factual lookups, use search instead (optionally with include_answer=true for cheap synthesis). Costs 25 credits. Returns: query, report (structured markdown with citations), sources (array of {title, url, fetched}), sub_queries (the decomposed queries), credits_used, credits_remaining, usage (token counts). Args: query: The research question or topic topic: "general" (default) or "news" (prioritize recent news articles) freshness: Filter by recency - "day", "week", "month", "year", or "YYYY-MM-DD:YYYY-MM-DD" max_sources: Maximum number of sources to use, 5-30 (default 20)

• reset_session

  VARRD — Statistically Validated Trading Edges + AI Research Engine

  Kill a broken research session and start fresh. Use this when a session gets stuck, produces errors, or enters a bad state. Free — no credits consumed. After resetting, call research without a session_id to start a new clean session.

• research_shopping

  AirShelf Catalog

  research_shopping is the full verified-research job; find_products is the quick candidate-list tool. It runs as a background job and returns status "running" with a research ID while the minutes-long research continues; the same research ID returns the run on later polls until completion. Unsafe medical, legal, financial-advice, and professional-service asks return status "refused" before any work is queued. Completed runs return a researched recommendation with per-claim source receipts, or an explicit refusal when evidence is insufficient. Missing decision details return clarification questions before research starts. `market` biases discovery and marketplace checks toward seller pages serving that country; "available in <market>" means the seller page serves that market, not that stock is guaranteed. Example answer keys include {"budget":"500 USD","market":"US","category":"espresso machine"}.

• second_opinion_quick

  Second Opinion

  Independent reasoning-only check of a claim ($0.02, ~20s, no web research). Use for logic, internal consistency, and stable established knowledge (definitions, architectures, history, maths).

Without a payment argument it returns an exact pay-per-call quote (no account, no API key).

• deep_research_topic

  Fodda Deep Research

  Launch an autonomous Deep Research session that combines Fodda knowledge graph intelligence with live web research to produce a comprehensive editorial-quality report. The Research Agent plans its own strategy, searches multiple graphs, validates with institutional data, and synthesizes into a narrative brief with inline source citations. Use for complex, multi-faceted questions that need both curated expert intelligence AND current web context — e.g., strategic briefings, market landscape reports, competitive deep dives. Price: $55 (light mode) or $100 (heavy mode). Automatically includes earnings-call intelligence and macro/supplemental data when the topic warrants it (public companies, sectors, economic conditions). You do not need to call the earnings or supplemental tools separately before or after.

• methodist

  OpenArx

  START HERE with your research question. This is your step-by-step scientific METHOD guide: it works out what kind of research you're doing, hands you the concrete method one stage at a time, reviews each stage you submit (approves it or returns it for fixes), and controls what gets published. It DIRECTS your research process — it never does the work for you. (This guides HOW you conduct the work. It is NOT the tool for finding methods described in existing papers — for that, use the literature-search tools.)
