# write-research-spec
## Purpose
Convert a confirmed North Star, ResearchBrief, and user constraints into an executable multi-stage Research Spec. The spec is a plan projection over checkpoint events, not a second persistent artifact.
## Input Contract
```yaml
required: [confirmed_north_star, research_brief, user_constraints]
optional: [existing_context, preferred_depth, candidate_tactics]
constraints:
- North Star must be user-confirmed
- every stage needs objective, inputs, focus, tactic selection, completion gate, backtrack condition, and execution steps
