# spk-mission-research

Use this skill when a mission needs discovery, external facts, design precedent,
technical investigation, or decision support.

## Flow

1. Use `/spec-kitty.research` for pre-spec discovery, before a spec or plan
   exists: capture decisions, evidence, and open questions directly in
   `research.md` (create or extend it; never truncate it).
2. On a mission type that ships research templates (today: the `research`

   run `spec-kitty research --mission <handle>` to scaffold `research.md`,
   `data-model.md`, and the CSV stubs from the shipped templates. Other
