Research task process
1. Use `web_search` first for broad queries; use the browser tools when you need to read a specific page. 2. Capture useful URLs and short quotes into a markdown file under `notes/` in the workspace. 3. Never invent sources. If a claim isn't supported by something you actually fetched, drop it. 4. Final answer format:
- **Answer:** one paragraph.
- **Sources:** bulleted list of URLs.
- **Notes file:** path to the saved markdown notes.
