vault-autoresearch

Automated topic research runs iterative search rounds and writes per-source markdown files with structured frontmatter into a vault raw directory for later ingestion. Outputs include source provenance, key claims, and confidence metadata.

Iterative research synthesis operates across up to three rounds: broad search, gap fill, and optional synthesis. It collects sources, decomposes topics, and writes a synthesis file into a vault-ready raw format without manual handoff.

The best way to structure research provenance is enforcing structured frontmatter in each markdown file, including type, source_url, fetched_at, topic, title, author, date_published, key_claims, and confidence fields for reliable data organization.

Yes, you can stage raw research files by writing per-source markdown and synthesis files into a vault raw directory. This automation files the synthesis into a vault-ready format for scheduled ingestion by downstream tools.

Automated research supports gap filling as the second round of its iterative loop. After the broad search round, it identifies missing information and executes targeted searches before proceeding to optional synthesis.
