Research Pipeline Planner

To plan a research pipeline, define your research topic, target venue, and expected contribution, then establish a sequential five-stage workflow from survey to promotion with enforced user checkpoints to prevent skipping stages.

Coordinating research milestones involves applying a strict five-stage progression that aligns topic definition, target deliverables, and documentation across stages, ensuring teams sync plans with current results through instance.json.

You cannot skip stages in the research pipeline; the system enforces stage-by-stage progression with user checkpoints to ensure sequential advancement from survey to promotion.

During the research ideation stage, a dedicated convergence flow automatically triggers to generate candidate directions, allowing you to select and refine specific research paths before proceeding.

Revising a project research brief requires updating .pipeline/docs/research_brief.json for topic scope and .pipeline/tasks/tasks.json for the concrete task plan and milestones.

Yes, the planner reads existing instance.json and pipeline documentation to keep your project plans synchronized with current research results and milestone progression.
