vamseeachanta Research & Literature Gathering Skill
Overview
Use this skill when implementing calculations requires identifying applicable standards, gathering reference literature, and mapping gaps. It queries three existing data sources and produces a structured YAML research brief.
Inputs
- category: engineering discipline (e.g.
geotechnical,structural,subsea) - subcategory: specific topic (e.g.
pile_capacity,fatigue,viv_analysis)
8-Step Workflow
- Query the Standards Ledger
- Query the Document Index
- Cross-Reference Capability Map
- Produce the Research Brief
- Search University & Academic Resources
- Document Download Tasks
- Deep Online Research
- Download Script Generation
See workflow-steps.md for detailed commands and procedures for each step.
See templates.md for the research brief YAML template and domain-to-repo mapping.
AC Checklist
- Standards ledger queried for domain
- Doc index searched with category and subcategory keywords
- Capability map cross-referenced for implementation status
- University/academic resources searched (textbooks, coursework, OCW)
- Worked examples with known answers identified for TDD tests
- Coursework materials archived in
knowledge/dark-intelligence/<category>/ - Research brief YAML saved to
.planning/capability-map/research-briefs/ - Download tasks identified with availability status
- Brief reviewed for completeness before handing off to implementation WRK
- Deep online research performed (WebSearch for free PDFs and papers)
- Download script generated via
--generate-download-script - Download script manually curated with discovered URLs
- Downloads validated with
file *.pdf(no HTML/WAF responses)
