Research $ARGUMENTS with current web sources — the last token is the
project slug if it names a directory under `projects/`, the rest is
the topic. Purpose: inspiration and grounding for the principal's
intent or assignment — he does not want to reinvent what the world
has already solved. One research, one question: a topic that turns
out to be several questions becomes several notes, each answering
one — never one combined document.
1. Search for current best practices, established frameworks, and notable
recent developments. Prefer primary and high-quality sources; note
publication dates. Mark epistemic status: consensus vs. emerging vs.
contested.
2. Write `research/YYYY-MM-DD-<topic-slug>.md` in the project (English,
immutable): question, key findings with sources, options with
trade-offs, and a short "relevance to this project" section with a
concrete recommendation.
3. Index and register. Add an entry to `research/00-INDEX.md`
(skeleton `templates/index.md`; create the index if missing):
**Question**, **Answer in short** (two or three lines), **Consult
when**. Add a registration row to the Research table in `ledger.md`
(file, date, derived from).
4. Summarise for the principal,
leading with the recommendation
and the trade-offs, not a literature review.
5. If findings suggest changes to intent or assignment, propose them
explicitly — via `/forge intent` or `/forge assignment`, never silently.
