What problem does it solve? Small chores, stray ideas, and miscellaneous issues accumulate around a research programme and either get ignored or silently under-specified. This Skill provides a lightweight triage pass that assigns each item a clear state while ensuring anything touching research assurance lanes is escalated instead of mishandled. ## Core Features & Use Cases - State Assignment: Classifies each loose item as discard, defer, backlog, quick-fix, convert-to-task-brief, convert-to-research-question, or convert-to-learning-scaffold, each with a one-line rationale. - Escalation Screen: Immediately routes anything touching topology, statistics, result artifacts, paper claims, or enforcement contracts to the appropriate tier 1 or tier 2 skill. - Use Case: You have an inbox of GitHub issues, vault cleanup notes, and website tweaks. Run triage to bundle the trivial fixes into one housekeeping pass, record where deferred items live, and hand off anything research-relevant to a full task brief. ## Quick Start Triage my current list of loose tasks and issues, assigning each a state and escalating anything that touches research assurance lanes.
