SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Sector reference pages written at install decay over time as regulations, funding schemes, and market conditions change. This Skill re-runs the original sector research against public sources, updates the pages in place, and reports what changed so the knowledge base stays current without manual research. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Scheduled Sector Research: Re-runs web research against the sector and area recorded at install, covering regulation, funding, market moves, and upcoming events. - In-Place Vault Updates: Updates pages in Intelligence/sector-landscape/ with bumped last_reviewed dates while respecting the user's own hand edits. - Dated Scan Notes: Writes a scan note summarizing what changed with sources, what it means for the organisation, and decisions needing attention. - Use Case: A consultant runs the monthly scheduled scan and receives a five-minute note flagging a new compliance deadline and a relevant grant closing soon, with the sector pages already updated. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to run the sector scan and refresh your sector landscape pages with the latest changes.

FAQPage Schema
How do I keep sector research pages up to date automatically?▼

Run the sector scan on a monthly schedule or on demand. It re-runs the install-time web research against your recorded sector, updates the affected pages in Intelligence/sector-landscape/, and writes a dated note summarizing what changed.

What sources does the sector scan use for research?▼

It uses only public web sources: regulators and government pages, industry bodies, reputable trade press, and company announcements. Paywalled or non-publicly-checkable content is excluded from the pages.

Will the scan overwrite my own edits to sector pages?▼

No. Where a page has been hand-amended, the scan adds and adjusts around your content rather than overwriting it. Direct conflicts are flagged in the scan note instead of being resolved silently.

What happens if nothing changed in my sector this month?▼

The scan note says so in two lines and the pages get their last_reviewed date bumped. A quiet month is reported honestly rather than padded with filler.

What if my install has no sector definition recorded?▼

The scan derives the sector from your Context pages, confirms it with you in one question, and writes it back to .footing/config.yml so future scans do not need to ask again.
