name	research-scope
description	Investigate the intended scope of a codebase topic through discussion with a human, propose a research-note outline, and only create a .memory-bank/research file after explicit human confirmation.

Research Scope Skill

Use this skill when the user wants to investigate and clarify a codebase topic before persisting durable research.

Follow the canonical workflow in ../../../.memory-bank/workflows/research-scope.md.

Read the relevant .memory-bank/ context before forming conclusions.
Treat the interaction as a discussion, not a one-shot dump.
Propose a title and outline before creating any research file.
Do not create .memory-bank/research/*.md until the human gives explicit confirmation.
If the topic overlaps an existing research note, discuss whether to extend the existing note or create a new one.

Start with:

Then read only the additional research notes, ADRs, rules, and source files needed for the current topic.
