Codebase research for planning involves reading broadly across documentation, ADRs, and index files, then drilling into specifics. This Skill performs read-only exploration of repositories and brain-mcp collections to answer whether similar features exist and surfaces related specs with file path citations.

The best way to generate a structured research brief is to query a read-only tool that reads project documentation and returns concise findings with URL citations. This Skill produces planning-mode briefs that answer feature questions and surface related ADRs with confidence estimates.

Yes, investigating external sources and brain-mcp collections without modifying code is possible using read-only access. This Skill gathers evidence without writing to files, making it suitable for design research, build-time investigations, and review audits across project repositories.

Yes, codebase research requires adhering to configured turn and timeout limits to manage exploration scope. This Skill respects configured limits while returning confidence estimates and file path citations for every finding it surfaces from the repository.

Getting source-cited findings with confidence levels requires a research tool that reads your project's brain collection and codebase. This Skill returns structured findings with file paths, URLs, and confidence estimates for every answer it surfaces.

You need a read-only research tool for software engineering planning when you want to answer whether similar features exist without risking code modifications. This Skill is suitable for planning, design research, build-time investigations, and review audits across project repositories.
