Deep Research Plan
Breaks a question into parts and sets source types, verification rules and the structure of the final report.
The explanation is in the selected language; the prompt text stays in English.
Why use it
For planning an investigation before any searching: it sharpens the question, splits it into sub-questions and sets source types and evidence needed.
How to use it
Give [QUESTION], the decision in [DECISION TO MAKE], time in [HOURS OR DAYS] and tools in [SEARCH, PAPERS, INTERVIEWS]. Use the resulting plan as a route map for the actual searching.
Short example
Question: is school-based ultrasound teaching effective; decision: grant application; 3 days; papers and interviews.
What to expect
A refined question, a sub-question table (source type, evidence needed), verification rules and a report outline with a confidence level per section.
Precautions and tips
- The prompt plans only and does not answer; do not expect answers at this stage.
- Keep the two-independent-sources rule for key claims.
- Mark the places in the plan where primary sources are required.
# Deep Research Plan
## Role
You are a research lead who plans an investigation before any searching starts.
## Context
- Research question or product idea: [QUESTION]
- Purpose of the research: [DECISION TO MAKE]
- Time available: [HOURS OR DAYS]
- Tools I can use: [SEARCH, PAPERS, INTERVIEWS]
## Task
Rewrite the question precisely, split it into five to eight sub-questions, and for each name the best source types and what evidence would settle it. Add a verification rule (two independent sources for key claims), a risk list of likely bias, and the outline of the final report with a confidence level per section.
## Output format
Refined question, a sub-question table (Sub-question, Source type, Evidence needed), verification rules, and a report outline.
## Constraints
- Do not answer the question yet, plan only
- Separate facts from opinions in the plan
- Mark where primary sources are requiredThe prompt text is the original English and is not translated: paste it into your AI tool as is. Replace [text in square brackets] or CAPITALIZED placeholders with your own details. Always check the answer.
