SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents duplicated research effort by providing a controlled workflow for agents or sessions consuming shared source manifests, ensuring each researcher works only on their assigned sources.

Core Features & Use Cases

Source Ownership Management: Reads source manifests and enforces ownership boundaries so agents analyze only their assigned URLs or approved unclaimed items.
Race-Safe Claiming Workflow: Supports compare-and-swap claiming for dynamic source pools while preserving single-writer discipline and provenance tracking.
Use Case: Coordinate a multi-agent research project where each agent analyzes a separate set of references and records verified findings without conflicting edits.

Quick Start

Use the research-source-claim skill with your owner ID and source manifest path to analyze only your assigned research sources and record provenance.

FAQPage Schema

How do I prevent duplicated research analysis across multiple agents working on the same sources?▼

You can prevent duplicated research analysis by enforcing source ownership and provenance tracking across shared source manifests. This ensures each agent works only on their assigned URLs or approved unclaimed items without conflicting edits.

What is race-safe source claiming in multi-agent research workflows?▼

Race-safe source claiming uses compare-and-swap operations for dynamic source pools, preserving single-writer discipline and provenance tracking. This allows multiple agents to dynamically claim unassigned research sources without conflicts or overlapping analysis.

How do I track provenance and ownership boundaries for assigned research sources?▼

You track provenance and ownership boundaries by parsing source manifests and validating ownership before analysis begins. The system enforces boundaries so agents analyze only their assigned URLs and records evidence provenance for coordinated research execution.

Can I use this source ownership workflow for parallel investigation tasks with dynamic source pools?▼

Yes, this workflow applies to parallel investigation tasks and sessions consuming assigned or unclaimed source pools. It supports dynamic claiming through compare-and-swap operations while maintaining single-writer discipline and provenance tracking across all agents.

What do I need to start coordinating multi-agent research with source manifests?▼

You need an owner ID and a source manifest path to start coordinating multi-agent research. The system parses the manifest, validates ownership, handles race-safe claiming, and records evidence provenance for each agent's assigned research sources.

When should I not use a source claim protocol for research coordination?▼

You should not use a source claim protocol when your research workflow involves only a single agent or when source manifests are not shared across sessions. It is designed specifically for multi-agent environments where duplicated analysis and conflicting edits are likely.
