# Research Framework
This meta-skill is the entry point to the framework-research engine. It is not a thinking method and ships no registry entry of its own; it delegates the bounded research role to the `think-research-framework` subagent so the work runs in its own context with web search.
## When to use
- You have a candidate thinking method and need an honest evidence grade, an overlap call against the shipped catalog, a learning dossier, and a proposed registry entry before deciding whether to build it.
- You want to reproduce the evidence-and-overlap vetting on a method the catalog already judged.
- You want a ranked shortlist of new candidate methods in a given family.
## When NOT to use
- You already know the verdict and just want to author the skill. Go straight to the skill-authoring flow.
- The request is a product or domain question rather than a thinking-method evaluation. That belongs in the sibling pm-skills library.
- You want a framework executed on your own problem. That is what the individual `think-` skills (and the advisor's plan) are for.
## What it does
Dispatch the work to the `think-research-framework` subagent: invoke the Task tool with subagent_type `think-research-framework`, passing the framework name (or the "discover N in family X" brief) the user supplied. Do not run the research inline in this context; the subagent holds the
