Project Research
Research and data-gathering phase for {PROJECT} — domain knowledge, reference data models, external API details, and a gap analysis against what already exists. Called by project-orchestrator when a module/topic's knowledge is missing; also used directly when the user says "research {PROJECT}'s X module.

About
{PROJECT} Research
Produces one accessible, cross-linked vault note per module/topic — not a one-off answer that disappears at the end of the conversation.
Step 1 — Scope the module/topic
Identify what's being researched and where its note should live under {PROJECT_NOTES_PATH}.
Step 2 — Gather
- Domain knowledge relevant to this module.
- Reference data models or prior art, internal or external.
- Any external system/API details this module needs to integrate with.
Delegate to a subagent whenever this involves scanning multiple sources — see [05 — Agents & Delegation](../../../docs/05-agents-and-delegation.md).
Step 3 — Gap analysis
Explicitly compare "what exists already" against "what this module needs" and call out the gap — this is the part most likely to get skipped if research turns into a generic summary instead of decision-relevant input for the design phase.
Step 4 — Write the note
Follow [vault-format](../../layer-0-foundation/vault-format/SKILL.md) conventions; link it from the project's map/hub. This note is what [project-design](../project-design/SKILL.md) will read next — write it for that purpose, not as a narrative transcript of the research process.
