Research Workflow
Overview
research-workflow provides systematic multi-source research by orchestrating skill-researcher operations in optimal sequence.
Component Skill: skill-researcher (all 5 operations)
Workflow (5 steps):
- Web Search Research - Find best practices, recent information
- GitHub Repository Research - Discover code patterns, implementations
- Documentation Research - Study official docs, specifications
- MCP Server Research - Explore relevant MCP servers (if applicable)
- Synthesize Findings - Aggregate and consolidate all sources
Result: Comprehensive research synthesis from multiple credible sources
When to Use
- Researching for new skill development
- Investigating unfamiliar domains
- Gathering implementation patterns
- Technology/library research
- Best practices discovery
Research Workflow
Step 1: Web Search Research
Search for best practices, recent blog posts, community knowledge.
Time: 15-30 minutes
Step 2: GitHub Repository Research
Find code examples, implementation patterns, community projects.
Time: 20-40 minutes
Step 3: Documentation Research
Study official documentation, specifications, API references.
Time: 20-40 minutes
Step 4: MCP Server Research (Optional)
Explore relevant MCP servers if domain has them.
Time: 15-30 minutes (skip if N/A)
Step 5: Synthesize Findings
Aggregate all sources, identify patterns, create synthesis document.
Time: 30-60 minutes
Quick Reference
The 5-Step Research Workflow
| Step | Source | Time | Output |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Web Search | 15-30m | Best practices, recent info |
| 2 | GitHub | 20-40m | Code patterns, examples |
| 3 | Documentation | 20-40m | Official specs, APIs |
| 4 | MCP Servers | 15-30m | Server capabilities (optional) |
| 5 | Synthesis | 30-60m | Research synthesis document |
Total Time: 2-3.5 hours
Result: research-synthesis.md with 3-5 sources, identified patterns, best practices
Use in: development-workflow Step 1 (research phase)
research-workflow ensures comprehensive multi-source research for well-grounded skill development.
