SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the research process for implementing a specific phase within a project, ensuring a thorough understanding of implementation strategies before planning begins.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Phase Validation: Checks if a phase is defined in the project roadmap.
  • Existing Research Check: Identifies and offers to use or update prior research.
  • Context Gathering: Collects relevant requirements, context, and state information.
  • Sub-agent Research: Spawns a dedicated researcher agent to investigate implementation details, common pitfalls, and standard stacks.
  • Use Case: Before starting to implement a new feature phase, use this Skill to understand the best architectural patterns, libraries, and potential challenges associated with that phase.

Quick Start

Research how to implement phase 3.

Frequently Asked Questions about gsd-research-phase

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I research implementation details for a specific project phase?▼

This Skill researches implementation details by validating the phase against your roadmap and spawning a sub-agent to investigate architecture patterns and common pitfalls, writing findings to a RESEARCH.md file.

What is the best way to document architecture patterns and common pitfalls before planning a feature?▼

The best way to document architecture patterns and common pitfalls is using a sub-agent to investigate implementation strategies for a phase and write the findings to a RESEARCH.md file.

Does this phase research tool check for existing documentation before generating new findings?▼

Yes, the tool checks for existing research documentation and offers to use or update prior findings before spawning a new sub-agent investigation for the requested phase.

How do I validate a project phase against a roadmap before starting implementation?▼

You validate a project phase against a roadmap by passing the phase number as an argument, which the Skill checks to ensure it is defined before gathering context and spawning the research sub-agent.

Can I use a sub-agent to investigate standard stacks and code examples for a specific development phase?▼

Yes, this Skill spawns a dedicated sub-agent to investigate standard stacks, architecture patterns, and code examples for a specific development phase, writing the results to a RESEARCH.md file.
