Research Framework
Purpose
A structured deep research methodology for complex technical questions, including source evaluation, synthesis, and comprehensive reporting. Provides systematic approach to gathering, evaluating, and synthesizing information.
Problem Space:
- Ad-hoc research lacks rigor and completeness
- Source quality varies widely
- Synthesis often superficial
- Findings not actionable
Solution Approach:
- Structured research phases
- Source credibility evaluation
- Multi-perspective synthesis
- Actionable recommendations
When to Use
- Complex technical questions requiring multiple sources
- Comparative analysis (tools, frameworks, approaches)
- Investigating unfamiliar domains
- Due diligence research
- Technology evaluation
- Market/competitive analysis
When NOT to Use
- Simple factual questions with clear answers
- Questions answerable from single authoritative source
- When time constraints prevent thorough research
- Opinion-based questions without factual basis
