What problem does it solve?
This Skill converts already-produced research outputs or draft text into a reader-ready, well-structured final Markdown research report, without re-doing the investigation or live sourcing.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Final report composition from research chain: Uses an existing
{report_dir}/synthesis.md, {report_dir}/plan.json, and {report_dir}/sub_reports/*.md to produce a complete report.md.
- Directed rewrite and restructuring: Rewrites, compresses, expands, reorganizes, and enhances summaries for an existing report, draft, or user-provided document path.
- Visual planning and integrated artifacts: Plans visual elements into
{report_dir}/visual_plan.md, then generates or embeds tables, Mermaid diagrams, and optional AI images (via sn-image-base) where appropriate.
- Evidence-first guardrails: Prevents inventing key facts when evidence is missing and keeps uncertainty/limitations explicit.
Quick Start
Use the sn-research-report skill to rewrite your existing research chain in {report_dir} into a polished report.md based on synthesis.md and the planned report shape in plan.json.
