What problem does it solve? Teams accumulate exploratory research notes that never become authoritative documentation, leaving future readers without a clear source of truth. This Skill converts decided research into stable canonical articles while preserving the evidence trail. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Decision-confirmation gate: Blocks consolidation until the team has actually made a decision, preventing false certainty from being written as canonical knowledge. - Supersession chain: Adds supersedes: frontmatter to the new article and marks old research as status: deprecated with superseded_by pointers, keeping the audit trail intact. - Canonical article structure: Enforces a standard layout (Summary, Context, Decision, Rationale, Trade-offs, Alternatives considered, Implementation notes, Further reading) with aggressive cross-linking. - Use Case: After the team decides to adopt Yjs for CRDT-based editing, consolidate three provisional research notes into one stable article under articles/editor/crdt-architecture.md and deprecate the originals. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to consolidate the research on your chosen topic into a canonical article now that the team has made its decision.
