DeerFlow Integration

What This Skill Does

DeerFlow is a LangGraph-based deep research engine that chains web search, reasoning, and synthesis into structured reports. This skill provides OpenClaw integration for submitting and monitoring research tasks against a running DeerFlow API.

Runtime contract: The skill itself runs entirely locally (python3 only) and communicates with DeerFlow over HTTP. It does not install or run any external Docker images — those are operated independently by the user as the DeerFlow host.

This skill does NOT install DeerFlow or manage its services. It assumes a DeerFlow instance is already running and reachable.

Prerequisites

⚠️ External dependency — your DeerFlow host. DeerFlow itself runs as a separate service on your infrastructure (or a VPS). Its Docker images are maintained by the bytedance/deer-flow project. Review their security posture before deployment.
