Gourmet Research

Overview

Template-first workflow for traceable, comparable, auditable food recommendations across cities. Keep evidence, scores, and decisions synchronized.

Core Rules (Non-Negotiable)

• If the user has not specified an output language, ask once at project start and record it in overview.md.
• Use gourmet// with 6 files: overview.md, inbox.md, candidates.md, notes.md, top-places.md, excluded.md.
• Never fabricate sources, ratings, or claims. Use unknown when missing.
• Prefer original-language place names (not translated) unless the user requests otherwise.
• Preserve audit trail: never delete candidates; mark rejected and record why in excluded.md.
• Default minimum sources = 4. If the locale is information-sparse, allow 3 only when you record evidence: limited with the reason and attempted sources.

Template-First Workflow (Summary)

1. Initialize: Ask for output language + city, then copy templates from assets/templates/ into the city folder.
2. Normalize: Update language/city placeholders in the copied files before research begins.
3. Discovery: Capture raw ideas in inbox.md, then move top candidates into with .
