SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill transforms scattered research findings from multiple AI-driven analyses into a coherent, actionable decision document, resolving conflicts and clearly stating recommendations.

Core Features & Use Cases

Conflict Resolution: Identifies and resolves discrepancies between different research outputs (e.g., technical feasibility vs. critical research findings).
Evidence Weighing: Applies a hierarchy to prioritize different types of evidence for robust decision-making.
ADR Generation: Produces Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) that document context, findings, decisions, and consequences.
Use Case: After running tech-feasibility on a new database and critical-research on its security implications, this skill synthesizes both to produce a single ADR recommending whether to adopt the database, detailing any trade-offs.

FAQPage Schema

How do I synthesize multiple research findings into a single decision document?▼

To synthesize research findings into a decision document, this Skill merges outputs from multiple analyses, weighs evidence based on established hierarchies, and resolves conflicts to generate a unified ADR-style document.

What is the best way to resolve conflicting evidence from different research outputs?▼

Resolving conflicting evidence from different research outputs requires applying an evidence hierarchy to prioritize findings, which this Skill uses to reconcile discrepancies and document the rationale for accepted or rejected outcomes.

How do I generate an Architecture Decision Record from scattered technical feasibility and critical research findings?▼

Generating an ADR from scattered research findings involves synthesizing technical feasibility and critical research outputs, which this Skill transforms into a coherent document detailing context, decisions, and consequences.

Can I trace the rationale for accepted, rejected, or uncertain decisions back to supporting evidence?▼

Yes, you can trace decision rationale back to supporting evidence because this Skill generates ADR-style documents that explicitly map accepted, rejected, or uncertain outcomes to their underlying research.

When do I need to create an evidence-based decision record for my project?▼

You need to create an evidence-based decision record when you have scattered findings from multiple AI-driven analyses that must be transformed into a coherent, actionable recommendation with clearly stated trade-offs.

Does this approach to decision synthesis work without established evidence hierarchies?▼

Evidence weighing relies on established hierarchies to prioritize different types of evidence, so applying this synthesis approach without a clear hierarchy reduces the robustness of the resulting decision document.
