Research

Contract

• Input: problem or task defined by the skill body.
• Output: Markdown artifact or structured result with completion criteria met.
• Side effects: none (design/review/documentation only unless explicitly stated).
• Dependencies: none (self-contained unless linked to other skills).
• Stop condition: all process steps completed; artifact saved; criteria checked.
• Risk: low.
• Boundary: produces reasoning or documentation artifacts; does not modify external systems unless explicitly instructed.

Spin up a background agent to do the research, so you keep working while it reads.

Its job:

1. Investigate the question against primary sources — official docs, source code, specs, first-party APIs — not a secondary write-up of them. Follow every claim back to the source that owns it.
2. Write the findings to a single Markdown file, citing each claim's source.
3. Save it where the repo already keeps such notes; match the existing convention, and if there is none, put it somewhere sensible and say where.
