• Open invitation → Context deepening → Synthesis → Confirmation
• Adaptive questioning based on user type (clear/vague/assigned/exploratory) Output: Structured YAML research context

Step 1: Key Question Generation

Prompt: prompts/key-questions.md Purpose: Generate 5 testable, meaningful research questions Input: Research context from Step 0 Output: Prioritized questions with importance, impact, and methodology

Step 2: Research Gap Identification

Prompt: prompts/research-gaps.md Purpose: Identify underexplored areas and limitations in existing research Input: Key questions from Step 1 Output: 4 priority gaps with proposed research ideas

Step 3: Key Insight Extraction (Single Source)

Prompt: prompts/insight-extraction.md Purpose: Deep analysis of individual research sources Input: Papers, reports, or documents relevant to the research context Output: Structured findings, implications, limitations

Step 4: Multi-Source Synthesis

Prompt: prompts/multi-source-synthesis.md Purpose: Integrate insights across multiple sources Input: Multiple sources + insights from Steps 1-3 Output: Common themes, integrated findings, knowledge gaps
