FAQPage Schema
How do I conduct domain research to guide project planning and reduce uncertainty?

Define research questions for your domain, collect information to assess options, and synthesize findings into a structured .planning/research/<name>.md document with recommendations and ROADMAP updates.

What is the best way to compare technology options during a complex planning phase?

Comparing technology options during a complex planning phase requires targeted domain research to evaluate alternatives, synthesize findings, and generate formal recommendations that shape your project ROADMAP.

How do I document research findings to align with my project roadmap?

Document research findings by generating a formal .planning/research/<name>.md file containing defined research questions, synthesized findings, and explicit ROADMAP updates to align planning with domain knowledge.

When do I need targeted domain analysis before starting project documentation?

Targeted domain analysis is needed before project documentation when facing complex planning phases that require evaluating technologies, comparing options, and clarifying the problem space to guide decision-making.

Can I use this approach to establish research questions for any domain analysis?

Yes, you can establish research questions for any domain analysis by defining what you need to learn, executing targeted research, and synthesizing findings into a structured document with ROADMAP alignment.

Does domain research for roadmap planning require any specific dependencies or components?

Domain research for roadmap planning requires no specific dependencies or components, allowing you to define research questions and synthesize findings into planning documents within any project environment.
