What is Hyperresearch?

Hyperresearch is a free, open-source deep research skill for Claude Code and OpenAI Codex. It gathers hundreds of web and scholarly sources, checks every citation before the report is written, and saves sources in a searchable local vault you can reuse in later research.

Third-party open-source projects. We are not affiliated with their authors; repositories are provided as-is by their maintainers. Review each project's license, code and security before installing. See our Disclaimer.

Pros: what Hyperresearch does well

  • Verifies citations before reporting
  • Reuses sources across sessions
  • Free and open source

Cons: where it falls short

  • Needs Claude Code or Codex and API usage
  • Long runs can take a while
