About
The Research skill is a specialized tool for Claude Code designed to facilitate in-depth technical investigations before writing a single line of code. It follows a structured workflow—including project context discovery, stakeholder clarification, and comprehensive codebase analysis—to identify root causes and evaluate potential solutions. By documenting findings in a standardized format within the repository, it ensures architectural decisions are well-founded, risks are identified early, and developers have a clear roadmap for subsequent implementation or PRD creation.
