SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill tackles complex problems where the cost of a wrong decision is extremely high, by conducting a comprehensive, multi-phase research process that involves a large number of agents to gather, synthesize, and validate information.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Comprehensive Research Funnel: Employs a 6-phase process with up to 21+ agents to explore problems from multiple angles.
  • Evidence-Based Decision Making: Focuses on gathering hard evidence with a clear strength scale to inform critical design choices.
  • Traceability: Ensures full traceability from findings to implementation plans.
  • Use Case: When designing a foundational architecture for a new distributed database system, this Skill can be used to thoroughly research theoretical underpinnings, existing production systems, potential failure modes, and best practices before any code is written.

Quick Start

Use the deeper-research skill to research the problem of optimizing inter-process communication in a high-throughput microservices environment.

FAQPage Schema
How do I research high-stakes architecture decisions for a distributed database system?

To research high-stakes architecture decisions, you need a multi-phase research funnel that systematically gathers, synthesizes, and validates evidence. This process uses wide surveys, deep dives, and adversarial reviews to ensure full traceability from findings to actionable codebase plans.

What is adversarial review in evidence-based decision making?

Adversarial review in evidence-based decision making is a validation phase that challenges synthesized findings to identify gaps and test evidence strength. It ensures critical design choices are supported by hard evidence rather than assumptions before implementation begins.

Can I use a multi-phase research funnel for optimizing inter-process communication in microservices?

Yes, a multi-phase research funnel can optimize inter-process communication in microservices by investigating the problem through wide surveys and deep dives. It ensures full traceability from findings to actionable codebase plans for high-throughput environments.

How many agents are involved in a comprehensive research funnel for complex design decisions?

A comprehensive research funnel for complex design decisions employs a structured 6-phase process with up to 21 agents. These specialized agents systematically gather, synthesize, and validate evidence to investigate problems from multiple angles.

What is the best way to ensure traceability from research findings to implementation plans?

The best way to ensure traceability from research findings to implementation plans is to use a structured research funnel that maps evidence strength to actionable codebase plans. This process validates findings through adversarial reviews and identifies gaps for targeted investigation.

When should I use an evidence-based deep dive instead of standard research?

You should use an evidence-based deep dive when the cost of a wrong decision is extremely high, such as designing foundational architecture. It focuses on gathering hard evidence with a clear strength scale to inform critical design choices and identify theoretical gaps.
