Research Synthesis Skill

Mission

Produce a clear, defensible synthesis from many sources while preserving uncertainty and conflicts.

Inputs To Use First

• inputs/questions.md
• inputs/methodology.md
• inputs/references.md
• inputs/papers/

Workflow

1. Build a source map: summarize each paper in 2-4 bullets.
2. Group claims by theme and identify direct conflicts.
3. Score evidence strength (high/medium/low) with rationale.
4. Write synthesis focused on decisions, not just summaries.
5. Convert findings into executive-ready artifacts.

Required Outputs

• outputs/workspace_scan_summary.md
• outputs/synthesis_analysis.md
• outputs/claims_evidence_table.md
• outputs/executive_brief.md
• outputs/research_brief_dashboard.html

Quality Bar

• Claims have explicit support and source linkage.
• Conflicting evidence is surfaced, not hidden.
• Recommendations include risk and confidence.
• Executive brief is concise and action-oriented.
