SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Autonomous iterative research loop that takes a topic, runs web searches, fetches sources, synthesizes findings, and files everything into the wiki as structured pages.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Autonomous topic research: decomposes topics into search angles and gathers top sources.
  • Structured filing: writes sources, concepts, entities, and a synthesis page into the wiki with proper frontmatter.
  • Safe, scalable workflow: uses transport rules, mode routing, and wiki-lock concurrency to avoid conflicts.

Quick Start

Invoke the autoresearch skill with a topic (e.g., '/autoresearch quantum computing') to start an automated 3-round research session that files results into the wiki.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate iterative web research and structure the findings into a wiki?

Automated iterative web research decomposes a topic into search angles, fetches top sources, synthesizes findings, and files structured pages like sources, concepts, and entities into a wiki.

What is the best way to gather and synthesize sources for topic exploration automatically?

Source gathering and synthesis are best automated by running multi-round web searches that fetch top results, extract key concepts, and generate a final synthesis page for structured wiki filing.

How does wiki-lock concurrency control ensure safe and scalable wiki filing during research?

Wiki-lock concurrency ensures safe wiki filing by using transport rules and mode routing to prevent write conflicts, allowing scalable structured output across multiple research rounds.

Can I run autonomous topic research without manual intervention to populate my wiki?

Yes, autonomous topic research runs automated multi-round sessions that handle everything from initial searches to writing structured wiki pages with proper frontmatter without manual intervention.

What format does the structured output use when filing research into wiki pages?

Structured output uses wiki pages with proper frontmatter to file sources, concepts, entities, and a final synthesis page, satisfying predefined program constraints.

Are there limitations when running automated research loops for wiki ingestion?

Automated research loops rely on defined transport rules and mode routing to manage scale, meaning constraints in reference programs dictate the safe boundaries for wiki ingestion operations.
