SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables teams to produce standardized, auditable research reports for Kanbanzai features, ensuring reproducibility of analyses, traceability of evidence, and clear decision rationales that guide product decisions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured investigation design: define the research question, scope, methodology, and evaluation criteria before collecting evidence.
  • Evidence grading and sourcing: identify primary and secondary sources, annotate findings with confidence levels, and link each finding to concrete sources.
  • Actionable recommendations with transparency: present findings, trade-offs, and limitations to support informed decisions across product, design, and engineering teams.

Quick Start

Provide a concise research report outline for a Kanbanzai feature request including scope, methodology, findings, and recommendations.

FAQPage Schema
How do I write a structured research report for a product feature request?

To write a structured research report, define the research question, scope, methodology, and evaluation criteria before collecting evidence. This ensures reproducibility, evidence traceability, and clear decision rationales for product features.

What is evidence grading in methodology and how does it support decision-making?

Evidence grading in research methodology annotates findings with confidence levels and links them to primary or secondary sources. This transparent evidence grading supports informed decisions by clarifying the reliability of each finding.

How do I include a trade-off analysis and limitations section in a decision-support report?

Include a trade-off analysis and limitations section by explicitly presenting findings, evaluating alternatives, and stating constraints. This transparent approach ensures decision-makers understand the boundaries and trade-offs before acting on recommendations.

Can I use standardized report-writing methodology for engineering and design scenarios?

Yes, you can use standardized report-writing methodology for engineering and design scenarios. It applies structured analysis, evidence grading, and explicit methodology to produce auditable research reports across product development, design, and engineering contexts.

What are the limitations of using automated methodology for research report writing?

Limitations of automated research report writing include the need for a clearly defined scope and explicit methodology before use. It cannot compensate for missing primary sources or poorly defined evaluation criteria in product development scenarios.
