An analysis of Claude's internal research process reveals a structured, deterministic Map-Reduce pipeline orchestrated by a JavaScript file. This system, ported from an automated bug-hunting architecture, breaks down complex research questions into micro-tasks with forced, typed outputs, preventing free-form prose and ensuring evidence is attached to claims. The research policy is further defined by four constants that dictate the number of votes required to validate a claim and the maximum number of sources or claims to process. AI
