SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Gathering information scattered across a Notion workspace and turning it into structured, well-cited documentation is time-consuming and error-prone. This Skill automates the search, synthesis, and publishing workflow so research outputs are consistent and traceable to their sources. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Workspace Research: Searches Notion with targeted queries and filters (date range, creator, teamspace), then fetches and synthesizes multiple source pages. - Format Selection: Chooses among four output formats—Quick Brief, Research Summary, Comparison, and Comprehensive Report—using a decision guide and ready-made templates. - Citation Management: Adds inline citations and a Sources section using mention-page tags so every claim links back to its origin. - Use Case: Ask it to research your API authentication approach; it searches the workspace, fetches 3-5 relevant pages, and publishes a structured Research Summary in Notion with citations and recommendations. ## Quick Start Research our Q4 product roadmap in Notion and create a cited research summary document with key findings and recommendations.

FAQPage Schema
How do I research a topic across my Notion workspace?▼

Ask for research on your topic and the skill runs notion-search with targeted queries, fetches the relevant pages with notion-fetch, synthesizes the findings, and creates a structured document in Notion with citations to each source page.

What report formats can Notion research documentation produce?▼

Four formats are supported: Quick Brief (200-400 words), Research Summary (500-1000 words), Comparison (800-1200 words), and Comprehensive Report (1500+ words). A format selection guide picks the right one based on scope and depth.

How do I connect the Notion MCP server for research?▼

Add the server with 'codex mcp add notion --url https://mcp.notion.com/mcp', enable the remote MCP client via rmcp_client in config.toml, then run 'codex mcp login notion' to complete OAuth. Restart codex after login.

Can research results be saved into a Notion database?▼

Yes. The skill fetches the database schema, identifies the correct data source, and creates the page with the appropriate properties such as type, status, and date, using the data_source_id as the parent.

How are sources cited in generated Notion research documents?▼

Sources are cited inline using mention-page tags with the page URL, and a grouped Sources section is added at the end of the document. Direct quotes and data tables also carry attribution to their origin pages.

What happens if a Notion search returns too many or too few results?▼

For too many results, the skill narrows with date, creator, or teamspace filters and refines the query. For too few, it broadens terms, removes filters, tries synonyms, and searches adjacent teamspaces.
