SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Consolidate scattered research materials into a single, verified synthesis by ingesting items from workflow/research/manual/, performing web search, codebase analysis, and cross-referencing sources to produce a cohesive research document.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Ingest and normalize materials from workflow/research/manual/ (PDFs, URLs, notes, code references) into a centralized research corpus.
  • Cross-reference sources, identify gaps and contradictions, and synthesize findings into actionable insights.
  • Use case: kick off Phase 1 research for a project by generating a comprehensive research brief that informs specifications and architecture decisions.

Quick Start

Invoke the research skill to synthesize materials from workflow/research/manual and generate workflow/research/final/research.md.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I consolidate scattered research materials into a single synthesis?▼

To consolidate research materials, ingest PDFs, URLs, notes, and code references from workflow/research/manual/, then cross-reference sources to produce a cohesive research document.

What is the best way to cross-reference sources and identify contradictions during project research?▼

Cross-reference sources by ingesting manual materials, performing web search and codebase analysis, then identifying gaps and contradictions to synthesize findings into actionable insights.

Can I use this to generate a research brief for architecture decisions and project scope?▼

Yes, you can generate a comprehensive research brief for Phase 1 work that cross-checks notes, PDFs, URLs, and code repositories to inform architecture, design constraints, and project scope.

How do I start gathering and normalizing code repositories and PDFs into a centralized research corpus?▼

Start gathering materials by placing PDFs, URLs, notes, and code references into workflow/research/manual/, then invoke the synthesis process to centralize them into a research corpus.

What format does the final research synthesis output support for RFCs and open questions?▼

The final research synthesis output supports markdown format, producing workflow/research/final/research.md and a references directory, with RFCs and open questions to support human review.

When do I need to produce RFCs and open questions before proceeding with architecture specifications?▼

Produce RFCs and open questions during Phase 1 research after cross-checking gathered materials, ensuring human review of synthesis findings, gaps, and contradictions before proceeding to specifications.
