# Research
|
||||
|
||||
Systematic investigation → evidence-based analysis → authoritative recommendations.
|
||||
|
||||
## Steps
|
||||
|
||||
1. Define scope and evaluation criteria
|
||||
2. Discover sources using MCP tools (context7, octocode, firecrawl)
|
||||
3. Gather information with multi-source approach
|
||||
4. Load the `outfitter:report-findings` skill for synthesis
|
||||
5. Compile report with confidence levels and citations
|
||||
|
||||
<when_to_use>
|
||||
|
||||
- Technology evaluation and comparison
|
||||
- Documentation discovery and troubleshooting
|
||||
- Best practices and industry standards research
|
||||
- Implementation guidance with authoritative sources
|
||||
|
||||
NOT for: quick lookups, well-known patterns, time-critical debugging without investigation stage
|
||||
|
||||
</when_to_use>
|
||||
|
||||
<stages>
|
||||
|
||||
Load the **maintain-tasks** skill for stage tracking. Stages advance only, never regress.
|
||||
|
||||
| Stage | Trigger | activeForm |
|
||||
|-------|---------|------------|
|
||||
| Analyze Request | Session start | "Analyzing research request" |
|
||||
| Discover Sources | Criteria defined | "Discovering sources" |
|
||||
| Gather Information | Sources identified | "Gathering information" |
|
||||
| Synthesize Findings | Information gathered | "Synthesizing findings" |
|
||||
| Compile Report | Synthesis complete | "Compiling report" |
|
||||
|
||||
Workflow:
|
||||
- Start: Create "Analyze Request" as `in_progress`
|
||||
- Transition: Mark current `completed`, add next `in_progress`
|
||||
- Simple queries: Skip directly to "Gather Information" if unambiguous
|
||||
- Gaps during synthesis: Add new "Gather Information" task
|
||||
- Early termination: Skip to "Compile Report" with caveats
|
||||
|
||||
</stages>
|
||||
|
||||
<methodology>
|
||||
|
||||
Five-stage systematic approach:
|
||||
|
||||
**1. Question Stage** — Define scope
|
||||
- Decision to be made?
|
||||
- Evaluation parameters? (performance, maintainability, security, adoption)
|
||||
- Constraints? (timeline, expertise, infrastructure)
|
||||
|
||||
**2. Discovery Stage** — Multi-source retrieval
|
||||
|
||||
| Use Case | Primary | Secondary | Tertiary |
|
||||
|----------|---------|-----------|----------|
|
||||
| Official docs | context7 | octocode | firecrawl |
|
||||
| Troubleshooting | octocode issues | firecrawl community | context7 guides |
|
||||
| Code examples | octocode repos | firecrawl tutorials | context7 examples |
|
||||
| Technology eval | Parallel all | Cross-reference | Validate |
|
||||
|
||||
**3. Evaluation Stage** — Analyze against criteria
|
||||
|
||||
| Criterion | Metrics |
|
||||
|-----------|---------|
|
||||
| Performance | Benchmarks, latency, throughput, memory |
|
||||
| Maintainability | Code complexity, docs quality, community activity |
|
||||
| Security | CVEs, audits, compliance |
|
||||
| Adoption | Downloads, production usage, industry patterns |
|
||||
|
||||
**4. Comparison Stage** — Systematic tradeoff analysis
|
||||
|
||||
For each option: Strengths → Weaknesses → Best fit → Deal breakers
|
||||
|
||||
**5. Recommendation Stage** — Clear guidance with rationale
|
||||
|
||||
Primary recommendation → Alternatives → Implementation steps → Limitations
|
||||
|
||||
</methodology>
|
||||
|
||||
<tools>
|
||||
|
||||
Three MCP servers for multi-source research:
|
||||
|
||||
| Tool | Best For | Key Functions |
|
||||
|------|----------|---------------|
|
||||
| **context7** | Official docs, API refs | `resolve-library-id`, `get-library-docs` |
|
||||
| **octocode** | Code examples, issues | `packageSearch`, `githubSearchCode`, `githubSearchIssues` |
|
||||
| **firecrawl** | Tutorials, benchmarks | `search`, `scrape`, `map` |
|
||||
|
||||
Execution patterns:
|
||||
- **Parallel**: Run independent queries simultaneously for speed
|
||||
- **Fallback**: context7 → octocode → firecrawl if primary fails
|
||||
- **Progressive**: Start broad, narrow based on findings
|
||||
|
||||
See [tool-selection.md](references/tool-selection.md) for detailed usage.
|
||||
|
||||
</tools>
|
||||

||||
<discovery_patterns>
|
||||
|
||||
Common research workflows:
|
||||
|
||||
| Scenario | Approach |
|
||||
|----------|----------|
|
||||
| **Library Installation** | Package search → Official docs → Installation guide |
|
||||
| **Error Resolution** | Parse error → Search issues → Official troubleshooting → Community solutions |
|
||||
| **API Exploration** | Documentation ID → API reference → Real usage examples |
|
||||
| **Technology Comparison** | Parallel all sources → Cross-reference → Build matrix → Recommend |
|
||||
|
||||
See [discovery-patterns.md](references/discovery-patterns.md) for detailed workflows.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
<findings_format>
|
||||
|
||||
Two output modes:
|
||||
|
||||
**Evaluation Mode** (recommendations):
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Finding: { assertion }
|
||||
Source: { authoritative source with link }
|
||||
Confidence: High/Medium/Low — { rationale }
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Discovery Mode** (gathering):
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Found: { what was discovered }
|
||||
Source: { where from with link }
|
||||
Notes: { context or caveats }
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
</findings_format>

| Criterion | Option A | Option B |
|
||||
|-----------|----------|----------|
|
||||
|
||||
## Recommendation
|
||||

|
||||
**Rationale**: reasoning + evidence

```

</response_structure>
|
||||
|
||||
<quality>
|
||||
|
||||
**Always include**:
|
||||
- Direct citations with links
|
||||
- Confidence levels and limitations
|
||||
- Context about when recommendations may not apply
|
||||
|
||||
**Always validate**:
|
||||
- Version is latest stable
|
||||
- Documentation matches user context
|
||||
- Critical info cross-referenced
|
||||
- Code examples complete and runnable
|
||||
|
||||
**Proactively flag**:
|
||||
- Deprecated approaches with modern alternatives
|
||||
- Missing prerequisites
|
||||
- Common pitfalls and gotchas
|
||||
- Related tools in ecosystem
|
||||
|
||||
</quality>
|
||||
|
||||
<rules>
|
||||
|
||||
ALWAYS:
|
||||
- Create "Analyze Request" todo at session start
|
||||
- One stage `in_progress` at a time
|
||||
- Use multi-source approach (context7, octocode, firecrawl)
|
||||
- Provide direct citations with links
|
||||
- Cross-reference critical information
|
||||
- Include confidence levels and limitations
|
||||
|
||||
NEVER:
|
||||
- Skip "Analyze Request" stage without defining scope
|
||||
- Single-source when multi-source available
|
||||
- Deliver recommendations without citations
|
||||
- Include deprecated approaches without flagging
|
||||
- Omit limitations and edge cases
|
||||
|
||||
</rules>

**Research vs Report-Findings**:
|
||||
- This skill (`research`) covers the full investigation workflow using MCP tools
|
||||
- `report-findings` skill covers synthesis, source assessment, and presentation
|
||||
|
||||
Use `research` for technology evaluation, documentation discovery, and best practices research. Load `report-findings` during synthesis stage for source authority assessment and confidence calibration.
