# Mature a project outline into an evidence-backed baseline
Research is the first semantic writer of North Star v2 and owns the first accepted
baseline plus later evidence-backed corrections. Web
search is one evidence source, not the workflow: repository files, Git, tests, runtime,
maintained documentation, owner decisions, and current primary sources all count.
## Before you start
1. If model-selected, verify the live execution grant in `../ultra-change/references/execution-grant.md` — a current session-local activation or a stably verified durable work-package grant; without either, stop.
2. Resolve at most one active `change_id`, then read `.ultra/tasks.json` plus the
`context_file` and `## Resume Note` of unfinished tasks whose `change_id` matches it,
if any. Archived or abandoned unfinished rows are history, not the current frontier.
3. Read `.ultra/project-brief.md`. For a legacy project without it, treat the exact
`.ultra/north-star.md` `## One-line` as raw intake until a brief is preserved.
4. Read existing `.ultra/north-star.md`, specifications, `CONTEXT.md`, relevant
`.ultra/decisions/`, active Change intent, evidence, Git state, and maintained docs.
Run `node <ultra-research-skill-dir>/scripts/validate_north_star.cjs
.ultra/north-star.md`; this entry captures one bounded regular non-symlink snapshot
and returns a typed repair diagnostic instead of following, blocking on, or validating
a changing path. Treat `unresearched` as an empty des
