guided-investigation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a repeatable framework to tackle open-ended questions by decomposing them into specific, answerable sub-questions and guiding progress through a formal five-phase workflow.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Structured question decomposition: Break vague questions into 3-5 concrete sub-questions with explicit success criteria.
• Data mapping and discovery guidance: Align sub-questions with available data, and document gaps and quality checks.
• Systematic investigation: Execute each sub-question in sequence, recording rationale, methods, results, and observations.
• Synthesis and actionable conclusions: Integrate findings into a coherent narrative and craft recommendations.

Quick Start

Begin a guided investigation by creating a dedicated analysis workspace and following the five-phase workflow to explore a broad question such as "Why is user engagement dropping in Q3?".
