SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Synthesizes outputs from parallel researcher agents into a single SUMMARY.md to accelerate roadmap planning and ensure consistent messaging across teams.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Reads and aggregates four planning artifacts: STACK.md, FEATURES.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, and PITFALLS.md.
  • Generates an executive summary, key findings, and roadmap implications for downstream roadmapping tools.
  • Writes SUMMARY.md and captures research flags, confidence levels, and gaps for review.

Quick Start

Spawn the synthesizer after the four researchers complete and verify that SUMMARY.md is created in the project planning area.

FAQPage Schema
How do I synthesize research outputs from multiple agents into an executive summary?

To synthesize research outputs, read STACK.md, FEATURES.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, and PITFALLS.md to generate a cohesive SUMMARY.md containing an executive summary, key findings, and roadmap implications for downstream planners.

What is the best way to consolidate planning artifacts for roadmap implications?

Consolidating planning artifacts involves aggregating technical stack, feature, architecture, and pitfalls documents into a single SUMMARY.md, capturing research flags, confidence levels, and identified gaps for review.

How do I generate a SUMMARY.md for downstream roadmapping tools?

Generate SUMMARY.md by spawning a synthesizer after parallel researchers complete their tasks, writing the aggregated results, confidence assessment, and identified gaps to the .planning/research/SUMMARY.md directory.

Do I need specific research files before starting the research synthesis process?

Yes, research synthesis requires four planning artifacts: STACK.md, FEATURES.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, and PITFALLS.md. These files must be generated by parallel researcher agents before spawning the synthesizer.

Can I capture confidence levels and research gaps during the summary generation?

Yes, summary generation captures research flags, concise confidence assessments, and identified gaps directly within the SUMMARY.md output, ensuring downstream roadmapping tools have visibility into research reliability.
