Systematic multi-level research with integrated Gemini Search for comprehensive knowledge synthesis. ## When to Use This Skill Use when conducting technical research, gathering information on unfamiliar topics, comparing technologies or approaches, validating claims with credible sources, or building comprehensive knowledge bases. ## 3-Level Research Methodology ### Level 1: Basic Research (< 5 minutes) - Quick factual queries - Single-source validation - Surface-level understanding - Immediate answers needed **Process**: 1. Query Gemini Search for primary information 2. Validate source credibility (>70%) 3. Extract key facts 4. Provide concise summary ### Level 2: Multi-Source Research (15-30 minutes) - Cross-reference multiple sources - Deeper analysis required - Technical understanding needed - Comprehensive overview desired **Process**: 1. Query 3-5 authoritative sources 2. Compare and contrast findings 3. Identify consensus and disagreements 4. Synthesize into coherent analysis 5. Score sources for credibility (>85%) ### Level 3: Deep Dive Research (1+ hours) - Extensive investigation - Academic rigor required - Complex topic with nuances - Publication-ready research **Process**: 1. Systematic literature review 2. Query 10+ diverse sources 3. Analyze methodology and evidence 4. Identify research gaps 5. Synthesize comprehensive report 6. Ensure 90%+ source credibility ## Source Evaluation Criteria ### Credibility Scoring (0-100%) - **Authority** (30%): Expert author, institutional backing - **Accuracy** (25%): Fact-checked, peer-reviewed, verifiable - **Objectivity** (20%): Minimal bias, balanced perspective - **Currency** (15%): Recent publication, up-to-date information - **Coverage** (10%): Comprehensive treatment of topic ### Source Types by Reliability 1. **Tier 1 (90-100%)**: Peer-reviewed journals, official documentation 2. **Tier 2 (75-89%)**: Industry reports, credible news outlets 3. **Tier 3 (60-74%)**: Blog posts from experts, technical forums 4. **Tier 4 (<60%)**: Unverified sources, opinion pieces ## Gemini Search Integration - Use `gemini-search` skill for web queries - Enable grounded search for factual accuracy - Leverage Google Search API for broad coverage - Apply source verification automatically ## Output Formats - **Summary**: Key findings in bullet points - **Synthesis**: Coherent narrative combining sources - **Bibliography**: Annotated source list with credibility scores - **Analysis**: Detailed evaluation with evidence ## Core Principles Researcher operates on 3 fundamental principles: ### Principle 1: Credibility-First Source Evaluation Every source is scored using a multi-dimensional rubric (Authority, Accuracy, Objectivity, Currency, Coverage) before incorporation. This prevents misinformation propagation and ensures reliable findings. In practice: - Tier 1 sources (90-100%) prioritized for critical claims - Cross-validation required when using Tier 3 sources (60-74%) - Automatic rejection of sources scoring below 60% credibility ### Principle 2: Multi-Source Triangulation Claims are validated through independent corroboration from 3+ sources at different tiers. This identifies consensus, reveals controversies, and surfaces conflicting evidence. In practice: - Key technical findings backed by peer-reviewed journals plus official documentation - Contradictory evidence explicitly reported with analysis of disagreement sources - Single-source claims flagged and ma /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ /* S4 SUCCESS CRITERIA */ /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ [define|neutral] SUCCESS_CRITERIA := { primary: "Skill execution completes successfully", quality: "Output meets quality thresholds", verification: "Results validated against requirements" } [ground:given] [conf:1.0] [state:confirmed] /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ /* S5 MCP INTEGRATION */ /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ [define|neutral] MCP_INTEGRATION := { memory_mcp: "Store execution results and patterns", tools: ["mcp__memory-mcp__memory_store", "mcp__memory-mcp__vector_search"] } [ground:witnessed:mcp-config] [conf:0.95] [state:confirmed] /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ /* S6 MEMORY NAMESPACE */ /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ [define|neutral] MEMORY_NAMESPACE := { pattern: "skills/research/SKILL/{project}/{timestamp}", store: ["executions", "decisions", "patterns"], retrieve: ["similar_tasks", "proven_patterns"] } [ground:system-policy] [conf:1.0] [state:confirmed] [define|neutral] MEMORY_TAGGING := { WHO: "SKILL-{session_id}", WHEN: "ISO8601_timestamp", PROJECT: "{project_name}", WHY: "skill-execution" } [ground:system-policy] [conf:1.0] [state:confirmed] /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ /* S7 SKILL COMPLETION VERIFICATION */ /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ [direct|emphatic] COMPLETION_CHECKLIST := { agent_spawning: "Spawn agents via Task()", registry_validation: "Use registry agents only", todowrite_called: "Track progress with TodoWrite", work_delegation: "Delegate to specialized agents" } [ground:system-policy] [conf:1.0] [state:confirmed] /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ /* S8 ABSOLUTE RULES */ /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ [direct|emphatic] RULE_NO_UNICODE := forall(output): NOT(unicode_outside_ascii) [ground:windows-compatibility] [conf:1.0] [state:confirmed] [direct|emphatic] RULE_EVIDENCE := forall(claim): has(ground) AND has(confidence) [ground:verix-spec] [conf:1.0] [state:confirmed] [direct|emphatic] RULE_REGISTRY := forall(agent): agent IN AGENT_REGISTRY [ground:system-policy] [conf:1.0] [state:confirmed] /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ /* PROMISE */ /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ [commit|confident] SKILL_VERILINGUA_VERIX_COMPLIANT [ground:self-validation] [conf:0.99] [state:confirmed]
