SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Seeds a topic and decomposes it into concrete sub-questions to drive targeted content discovery and assemble a complete research seed.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Decomposes topic into specific sub-questions to guide discovery.
  • Scouts vocabulary, generates targeted queries, and coordinates source plugins.
  • Compiles results into seed/sources.md for downstream research.

Quick Start

Provide a topic prompt and optional audience segment to initiate the seed orchestration.

FAQPage Schema
How do I decompose a research topic into actionable sub-questions?

To decompose a research topic into sub-questions, you break the main subject into 5-8 targeted queries that guide content discovery. This structured topic exploration scouts vocabulary and generates focused questions to frame research for specific audience segments.

What is research topic orchestration and how does it work?

Research topic orchestration coordinates vocabulary scouting across sources by spawning deterministic agent tasks. It compiles discovered information into a seed file, ensuring downstream research plugins can access structured sub-questions for cross-plugin coordination.

How do I structure topic exploration for audience-guided framing?

Structuring topic exploration for audience-guided framing requires providing a topic prompt and an optional audience segment to initiate the seed workflow. This generates targeted queries tailored to the audience, ensuring sub-questions align with specific reader needs.

Can I coordinate multiple source plugins for content discovery?

Yes, you can coordinate multiple source plugins for content discovery. The seed workflow orchestrates cross-plugin coordination by spawning agent tasks that scout vocabulary across sources, compiling results into a centralized seed file for downstream use.

What's the best way to compile research sources for downstream discovery?

The best way to compile research sources for downstream discovery is using a deterministic seed workflow that writes results to a seed file. This ensures vocabulary scouting and sub-question decomposition outputs are structured for subsequent research tasks.

When do I need to break down a topic into 5-8 sub-questions?

You need to break down a topic into 5-8 sub-questions when a project requires structured topic exploration with audience-guided framing. This decomposition drives targeted content discovery and assembles a complete research seed for complex subjects.
