SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a reproducible, protocol-driven workflow to transform scattered academic and industry literature into a structured, citation-backed narrative suitable for decision-making.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Protocol-first planning: lock research questions, scope, time window, and citation target before searching.
  • Evidence matrix workflow: build a structured problem-method-result map with traceability and quality checks.
  • Narrative-to-evidence packaging: generate Markdown/Word/PDF outputs with BibTeX/RIS integration and reproducible visuals when needed.
  • Use Case: teams map literature to support product decisions, policy briefs, or research plans with a transparent evidence trail.

Quick Start

Plan a reproducible literature review workflow from a defined research question to evidence packaging and narrative synthesis.

FAQPage Schema
How do I structure a reproducible literature review workflow from question framing to evidence packaging?

Structure a reproducible literature review by locking research questions, scope, and citation targets first, then mapping evidence into a structured problem-method-result matrix for transparent narrative synthesis. This protocol-driven workflow ensures traceability from initial question framing to final evidence packaging.

What is an evidence matrix and how does it help with literature synthesis?

An evidence matrix is a structured problem-method-result map that organizes literature sources with traceability and quality checks. It transforms scattered academic and industry literature into a structured, citation-backed narrative suitable for decision-making and gap analysis.

Can I generate narrative synthesis outputs with BibTeX or RIS bibliographies for decision-making?

Yes, you can generate Markdown, Word, or PDF narrative-to-evidence packaging outputs with integrated BibTeX or RIS bibliographies. This protocol-driven approach produces citation-backed narratives with reproducible visuals suitable for policy briefs or research plans.

Does this literature synthesis workflow support both academic research and industry evidence mapping?

Yes, this workflow applies to both academic and industry literature reviews, related-work drafting, and evidence mapping across domains and time windows. It meets requirements for plan-driven methodology and transparent source selection in both contexts.

What is the best way to map literature to support product decisions with a transparent evidence trail?

The best way is using a protocol-first planning approach to lock research scope, followed by building an evidence matrix workflow with traceability and quality checks. This generates a structured, citation-backed narrative with a transparent evidence trail for product decisions.

When do I need protocol-driven methodology for a literature review or gap analysis?

You need protocol-driven methodology when transforming scattered literature into citation-backed narratives for decision-making, policy briefs, or gap analysis across domains. It ensures transparent source selection and reproducible evidence packaging.
