What problem does it solve?
This Skill provides a repeatable, evidence-driven methodology for investigating undocumented behavior, internal mechanisms, and "how does X work?" questions when official documentation and community sources are incomplete or contradictory. It helps researchers move from uncertain observations to verifiable explanations with source references and confidence judgments.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Multi-phase workflow: External research for broad coverage, source analysis for definitive answers, and synthesis with confidence levels and corrections.
- Source tracing techniques: Guidance for locating entry points, tracing call chains, and working with decompiled or minified code to verify behavior.
- Practical outputs: Produces research reports saved to disk, annotated findings with file:line references where available, and explicit remediation or usage guidance.
- Use Case: Investigate why a CLI or UI emits unexpected titles or telemetry by combining GitHub issues, docs, and decompiled code to produce a final, source-backed report.
Quick Start
Run a deep research session on "terminal title behavior" and produce a source-backed report with confidence levels and file:line references.
