# North Star Synthesis

Converge all accumulated context into North Star + ResearchBrief.

## Available SOPs

| SOP | Purpose | Execution |
|-----|---------|-----------|
| crystallize-north-star | Formulate the North Star statement with user | dialogue |
| generate-research-brief | Aggregate all context into structured ResearchBrief | subagent |
| final-validation | Self-review + present to user for confirmation | dialogue |

## Methodology Guidance

- `crystallize-north-star` checks: specific? ambitious? achievable?
- `generate-research-brief` aggregates all context (ActorProfile, FieldPanorama, RankedCandidates, ObstacleReport, GoalTree, North Star, key references, key terms)
- `final-validation` performs self-review before presenting:
  1. Placeholder scan: any TBD / empty sections?
  2. Internal consistency: do sections contradict?
  3. Completeness: critical information gaps?
  4. Ambiguity: statements interpretable two ways?
- If self-review finds issues: return to specific tactic/SOP for targeted fix (not full re-run)
- If passes: present North Star + ResearchBrief to user

## Output (Tactic-Level Aggregation, Presented to User)

`North Star (one sentence) + ResearchBrief (structured context document)`

## Available SOPs

Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.

| SOP | When to use |
| --- | --- |
| crystallize-north-star | Fuse the GoalTree root node and user motivation into a single crystallized North Star statement. Format: '[verb] [specific goal], through [method/path], solving [what problem], ultimately [what impact]'. Quality checks: specific? ambitious? achievable? |
| final-validation | Self-review the North Star + ResearchBrief for completeness, consistency, and clarity before presenting to user. If issues found, return to specific tactic/SOP for targeted fix. If passes, present final output to user for confirmation. |
| generate-research-brief | Aggregate all accumulated context from the crystallization process into a structured ResearchBrief document. This is the final output artifact alongside the North Star — a comprehensive requirement context document for downstream research strategies. |
