SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Many decision-makers struggle to obtain fast, trustworthy research with clear citations on time-sensitive or niche topics; this skill provides a rigorous, source-grounded workflow to reduce uncertainty.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Freshness-checked sourcing to prioritize up-to-date information
  • Structured evidence capture with source links and dates
  • Output formats including research-brief, decision-memo, and implementation-notes
  • Use Case: when a project requires verified background research, risk assessment, or policy analysis under tight deadlines
  • Use Case: for validating vendor claims, scientific claims, or regulatory requirements with auditable references

Quick Start

Provide the topic and any external links, then invoke the research protocol to generate a cited, decision-ready brief.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a decision memo with cited sources for time-sensitive research?▼

To generate a decision memo with cited sources, provide your research topic and any external links. The skill synthesizes fresh, source-grounded information into structured outputs like briefs, memos, and implementation notes.

Can I verify vendor claims and regulatory requirements with auditable references?▼

Yes, you can verify vendor claims and regulatory requirements with auditable references. The skill captures structured evidence with source links and dates to validate high-stakes or niche topics.

Does the research protocol require internet access to synthesize evidence tables?▼

Yes, the research protocol requires internet access via Cursor browser or MCP to synthesize evidence tables. It performs freshness checks to prioritize up-to-date information for your research briefs.

What is the best way to structure a research brief for fast-moving domains?▼

The best way to structure a research brief for fast-moving domains is to use freshness-checked sourcing. The skill identifies and synthesizes recent data into concise, decision-ready outputs with citations.

When do I need source-backed research for risk assessment under tight deadlines?▼

You need source-backed research for risk assessment under tight deadlines when facing high uncertainty. The workflow rigorously checks information freshness and delivers concise implementation notes for immediate action.

Are there limitations to storing decision memos in MCP memory?▼

The skill optionally stores memos in MCP memory, but requires internet access via Cursor browser or MCP for retrieval. Its core limitation is reliance on external browser connectivity for fresh source gathering.
