SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Stores and organizes research findings so teams avoid duplicating effort and can loop back to prior experiments.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Query existing findings to surface prior work before building.
  • Add new findings with structured metadata and citations after experiments.
  • Run research loops that web or internal sources to generate briefs and ideas, then log results to a central ledger.
  • Check whether an experiment has already been tried and prevent redundant work.
  • Read back a page or list pages by category to maintain institutional memory.

Quick Start

Start by querying existing research with research_query, then add findings with research_add, and run a loop with research_loop to begin.

FAQPage Schema
How do I store and query research findings to avoid duplicating experiments?▼

To avoid duplicating experiments, query existing research findings before building, then add new results with structured YAML metadata to an append-only ledger for persistent institutional memory.

What is the best way to maintain institutional memory across coding and design investigations?▼

Maintain institutional memory by logging experiment results into a central ledger and reading back wiki pages by category, ensuring prior coding, design, and growth findings remain accessible.

How do I run research loops to generate briefs and log results?▼

Run research loops by querying web or internal sources to generate briefs and ideas, then automatically logging the experiment results into a central append-only ledger for future reference.

Does the research knowledge search use vector embeddings for matching?▼

No, the research knowledge search does not use vector embeddings; it relies entirely on keyword and tag matching to surface existing findings from the structured YAML frontmatter.

Can I check if an experiment has already been tried before starting new work?▼

Yes, you can check if an experiment has already been tried by querying the persistent research ledger before building, which surfaces prior work and prevents redundant efforts across categories.
