This skill helps engineering teams quickly understand a new or existing codebase area by outlining goals, exploring architecture, and producing a structured research note that guides implementation decisions.
Summarize the target code area by generating a draft research report from the spec and codebase.

Researching existing code architecture involves inspecting entry points, data flows, and key files to build an overview, producing a draft research note that captures goals, scope, and patterns for team review before implementation.
The best way to document codebase findings is generating a draft research report for team review, iterating based on feedback, then saving the approved report as a research file and generating a separate markdown digest summary.
You create a structured research report by reading the spec, exploring the relevant code to map data flows and patterns, writing a draft research file, presenting it for user review, and iterating until the report is approved.
Yes, the research process supports iteration by presenting a draft report for review via user questions, allowing you to refine the area overview and observations until approved, before renaming the draft to a final research file and generating a digest.
A brownfield research report outline includes an area overview, key files, data flow, patterns, and observations, systematically capturing the goals and scope of the existing code area to guide engineering implementation decisions.
No external dependencies are required to generate a codebase research report; the process relies solely on reading the spec and exploring the codebase to produce the draft research file and its corresponding digest.
