| description | Structured topic research and multi-angle analysis for a user-provided topic, market, trend, concept, project, platform, industry, or content direction. Use when the user asks to research, investigate, analyze, study, or survey a topic and expects more than a simple search result dump, including multi-round retrieval, source comparison, dimension-based analysis, opportunity/risk assessment, and a clear research summary. |
Research Studio
Turn a user topic into a structured research result.
Core rule
Do not stop at search results.
Convert gathered information into a research judgment.
Default workflow:
- front-load requirement clarification and alignment
- define the exact research question
- classify the topic type
- break the topic into useful analysis dimensions
- run multiple retrieval passes
- compare and synthesize sources
- produce a structured result with depth, examples, and operational guidance
- explicitly mark uncertainty, weak evidence, and missing information
Read references/intake-and-alignment.md before starting substantive execution.
Read references/grilling.md when the brief is vague, high-stakes, branching, or likely to cause later rework unless the requirements are pressure-tested up front.
Read references/intake-question-batch.md when you need a compact one-shot question set for front-loaded alignment.
Read references/depth-standard.md before writing the main analysis.
Read references/report-quality-benchmarks.md before final delivery when the task is a serious report rather than a quick scan.
Default answer style
By default:
- lead with the conclusion
- avoid filler and generic framing
- avoid link dumps with no synthesis
- avoid pretending certainty when evidence is incomplete
- avoid shallow summary that only states phenomena
- include mechanism, examples, and operational guidance for important points
Be concise when the user wants a quick result.
Be detailed when the task itself is a substantive research report.
Only expand beyond necessary research depth when the user explicitly asks for more detail, such as:
Research modes
Choose the lightest sufficient mode.
1. Quick scan
Use for early-stage orientation, rough opportunity checks, and first-pass topic understanding.
2. Standard research
Use by default for most user requests.
3. Deep research
Use when the user explicitly asks for deep analysis, comprehensive coverage, or a more decision-ready report.
Topic typing
Before researching, determine which topic type fits best.
Read references/topic-types.md when the topic scope or research angle is unclear.
Typical topic types:
- market / industry
- product / project
- platform / content ecosystem
- concept / trend
- audience / demand
- business model / monetization
Dimension selection
Do not use the same dimensions blindly for every topic.
Select the most relevant set.
Read references/dimensions.md before structuring the analysis.
Common dimensions include:
- definition and scope
- current state
- user demand
- competitive landscape
- monetization / business model
- growth drivers
- risks / uncertainty
- opportunities
- conclusion
Retrieval workflow
Read references/workflow.md for the detailed workflow.
Read references/query-planning.md before searching so queries are split by dimension instead of repeated vaguely.
Read references/query-examples.md when you need examples of how to turn a topic into practical query buckets.
At minimum:
- do an initial scan
- do targeted follow-up searches by dimension
- cross-check important claims
- prefer stronger sources when claims conflict
When evaluating source reliability, read references/source-quality.md.
When presenting key evidence in the final result, follow references/source-citation-format.md.
Output pattern
Read references/output-template.md before drafting the final response.
Then choose the most specific output template that matches the topic:
references/output-template-market.md for market / industry research
references/output-template-project.md for product / project / worth-doing research
references/output-template-platform-content.md for platform / content ecosystem research
For stronger delivery shape, also use the matching sample report reference:
references/sample-market-report.md
references/sample-project-report.md
references/sample-platform-report.md
When the user wants a deliverable report, also read:
references/html-report-spec.md
references/chart-rules.md
references/chart-components.md
references/advanced-chart-patterns.md
references/report-components.md
references/component-layout-strategies.md
references/visual-style.md
references/evidence-display.md
Default output should include:
- one-line conclusion
- key findings
- dimension-based research result
- biggest opportunity
- biggest risk
- information gaps
- suggested next step if deeper research is needed
For report delivery, generate a structured JSON payload and produce the default artifact set:
report.svg
report.png
report.md
- structured JSON payload
Use the SVG report as the primary rendered artifact.
Use PNG as a derived preview artifact.
Treat Markdown as a first-class report artifact, not a fallback note.
Follow references/report-json-schema.md for the payload shape.
Hard rules
- Do not dump raw search results without synthesis.
- Do not rely on a single weak source for an important conclusion.
- Do not hide uncertainty.
- Do not inflate weak evidence into a confident judgment.
- Do not write generic statements that could apply to almost any topic.
- Do not use empty phrases such as “值得关注”, “具备潜力”, “未来可期”, or “可以进一步观察” unless immediately followed by concrete reasons, boundaries, and evidence status.
- Every meaningful conclusion should be supported by evidence, direct source comparison, or clearly labeled reasoning.
- Every important factual claim should have a clear source reference or be marked as unsupported.
- If a claim is weakly supported, downgrade it explicitly to a tentative view or open question.
- Separate what is evidenced, what is inferred, and what remains unknown.
- If data is missing, leave it blank or mark it as 待补充 rather than inventing numbers or pretending the evidence exists.
- Do not fabricate evidence, fill gaps with speculation, or present guesses as sourced support.
- Do not create decorative charts from weak, missing, or unsourced data.
- For report delivery, prefer a single self-contained SVG file with inline assets where possible.
- If images are used in the report, prefer base64 embedding to keep rendered artifacts self-contained.
- If external context is required and tools are available, search first.
- If tools are unavailable or evidence remains thin, say so clearly.
