# Research Skill - Preliminary Research

## Trigger
`/research <topic>`

## Workflow

### Step 1: Generate Initial Framework from Model Knowledge
Based on topic, use model's existing knowledge to generate:
- Main research objects/items list in this domain
- Suggested research field framework

Output {step1_output}, use request_user_input to confirm:
- Need to add/remove items?
