Define Search Protocol
Formalize search queries + inclusion/exclusion criteria for systematic surveys.
Execution
Subagent — spawned via subagent-spawning/spawn-agent skill.
Why Subagent
Protocol definition requires careful reasoning about query formulation, Boolean operators, database selection, and criteria boundaries. Dedicated context prevents this analytical work from being rushed.
Available SOPs
Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.
| SOP | When to use |
|---|
| spawn-agent | Spawn a customized CC subagent with full MCP tool access. Used by SOPs that declare execution: subagent. |
