SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Research eliminates the manual, error-prone work of tracking down authoritative information across scattered sources and synthesizing a concise, actionable answer with clear provenance and confidence.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured multi-source research: Orchestrates local file reads, web searches, HTTP fetches, and project inspection to gather relevant evidence.
  • Evaluated findings & synthesis: Records source-by-source findings, evaluates relevance and trustworthiness, synthesizes a combined answer, and highlights gaps and confidence.
  • Configurable behavior for accuracy: Respects configurable max queries, preferred sources, language selection, and optional summary extraction to tune thoroughness and verbosity.
  • Use Case: Compile a short technical brief on a library's compatibility by inspecting a codebase, fetching official docs, and summarizing differences with citations.

Quick Start

Ask the research skill to find authoritative sources and synthesize an answer for the question: What are the best practices for API versioning, including sources, a clear synthesis, confidence, and any remaining gaps?

FAQPage Schema
How do I synthesize information from web searches and local project files into a structured answer?

To synthesize information from web searches and local files, the skill orchestrates multi-source gathering via local reads, HTTP fetches, and project inspection. It evaluates findings to produce a combined synthesis with source provenance and confidence scores.

What is structured research synthesis and how does it handle source trustworthiness?

Structured research synthesis gathers evidence from configured sources and evaluates relevance and trustworthiness on a per-source basis. It outputs a combined answer alongside source results, a confidence metric, and identified knowledge gaps.

Can I configure web search query limits and language preferences for information gathering?

Yes, you can configure web search query limits and language preferences for information gathering. The skill respects configurable max queries, preferred sources, language selection, and optional summary extraction to control thoroughness and verbosity.

What's the best way to compile a technical brief on a library's compatibility using project inspection?

The best way to compile a technical brief on library compatibility is using project inspection alongside fetching official docs. The skill synthesizes differences with citations, evaluates trustworthiness, and highlights remaining factual gaps.

How does the research skill identify knowledge gaps after synthesizing findings?

After synthesizing findings, the research skill identifies knowledge gaps by evaluating source-by-source results and trustworthiness. It produces structured output that highlights confidence levels and any missing information required to fully answer the question.
