Individual skill

research-question

Helps learners refine broad topics into focused, researchable questions using the PICO or FINER framework. Produces a well-formed research question with scope boundaries and feasibility assessment. Use when a learner asks to develop a research question, narrow a broad topic, focus a research idea, or determine if a question is researchable. Do NOT use for choosing a research methodology (use `research-methodology`), for finding sources (use `literature-search`), or for writing a thesis statement (use writing category skills).
