# Run a market scan with a team of agents

One agent gathers sources, one summarizes, one checks the claims before you read it.

- Category: Research
- Runs on: Claude
- Level: Intermediate
- Setup time: about 60 minutes
- Source: https://crimsonbot.ronskaggs.workers.dev/playbooks/multi-agent-market-scan

## You will need

- A research question with a clear scope
- An agent that can browse the web

## You will end up with

- A sourced brief with every claim linked
- A list of open questions to follow up

## Steps

### 1. Write the research question

One sentence on what you need to know and for what decision. Add what is out of scope.

### 2. Split the work across three agents

A gatherer collects sources, a summarizer writes the brief, and a checker verifies each claim against its source.

```text
Gatherer: find [N] recent, primary sources on [QUESTION]. Return URL, date and one-line relevance for each.
Summarizer: write a one-page brief from these sources only. Cite every claim.
Checker: for each claim, open the cited source and mark it supported, unsupported or unclear.
```

### 3. Read the checked brief (human checkpoint)

Only claims marked supported stay in. Review the unclear ones yourself before you act.
