Conduct multi-round deep research on any GitHub Repo

github-deep-research is an agent skill from the DeerFlow project that researches a single GitHub repository in several rounds and writes a report in Markdown. It is for requests that need more than a README summary, such as a comprehensive analysis of a project, a timeline of how it developed, a competitive comparison with other tools, or an in-depth review. The research runs in stages: first the GitHub API for the repository's basic facts, then broader discovery through web search, then a deeper investigation, and finally a dive into the points that need explaining. Each round is guided by a query strategy that moves from broad to narrow, so later searches follow what the earlier ones found. Web search and page fetching are used alongside the API to cross-check claims. The skill is useful for engineers evaluating a dependency, researchers following a project, and product teams comparing tools. It passes Gen Agent Trust Hub and Socket on skills.sh, and Snyk shows a warning. Install it with npx skills add https://github.com/bytedance/deer-flow --skill github-deep-research.
