https://video.ut0pia.org/videos/watch/3de6a951-1755-4808-a7da-715971adff17 Deep research is one of the best ways to learn how to build real AI systems because it forces you to combine reasoning, planning, autonomy, tools, grounding, and feedback loops in a single end-to-end workflow. In this hands-on workshop, you will build an MCP-powered deep research agent that can plan a research strategy, search the web, analyze YouTube videos, gather grounded evidence, filter for relevance and trustworthiness, and synthesize its findings into a cited research artifact. Rather than treating research as just another chatbot interaction, we will frame it as a goal-directed research loop: one that can search, inspect, pivot, and progressively refine its understanding of a topic. From there, we will connect that research artifact to a lightweight technical writing workflow that turns raw findings into polished, non-sloppy technical multimodal content. This second part of the system is deliberately more constrained: you will see how research and writing require much different architectures, why exploratory work benefits from agentic behavior, and why writing quality often improves with tighter workflows, review loops, and explicit guidance. Along the way, we will show how to choose between prompts, workflows, and agents depending on the task, and how to keep the overall system practical rather than over-engineered. We will also cover observability and evaluation so the system is not only impressive in a demo, but measurable and improvable in practice. Most importantly, the workshop is grounded in experience: it distills what we learned over the past year building and using this research-and-writing pipeline internally. Attendees will leave with their own deep research agent, connecting it to a reliable technical writing workflow, and understanding the engineering tradeoffs behind both.
