research

To gather external context for project research, this Skill performs web searches, reads external documentation, and synthesizes reference materials into a topic-focused Markdown file. The output is saved directly to the .lore/research/[topic].md path for easy retrieval.

Collecting prior art and library documentation for architecture decisions is done by searching outside the project scope and synthesizing the findings. The Skill generates a Markdown knowledge-base file with date frontmatter, storing the external context needed to inform your decisions.

Yes, you can use this to discover API references and framework documentation. It explores external documentation, reads relevant materials, and synthesizes the information into a structured Markdown file saved within your project's lore-backed location.

Saving brainstorming and web-search results into a project knowledge base is achieved by synthesizing the gathered external context into a Markdown file. The Skill automatically writes this topic-focused output to the .lore/research/ directory, creating a persistent reference.

No external dependencies or components are required to function. The Skill operates independently to perform web searches, read documents, and synthesize external context without needing additional tools or modules installed in your environment.

You should not use a web-search approach for exploring external documentation when your project requires strictly offline access or when the needed reference materials are already contained within your internal project scope and do not warrant external synthesis.
