Question: $ARGUMENTS

If no question provided, ask the user what they want to know.

Execute these steps:

1. Classify the question — determine which knowledge base tier(s) to consult (see Query Classification below)
2. Search the knowledge base — route to appropriate tiers based on classification
3. Read relevant claims and docs — load 3-7 most relevant sources fully (use mcp__qmd__multi_get when reading multiple IDs)
4. Check user context — read ops/derivation.md if the question involves their specific system
5. Synthesize an answer — weave claims into a coherent, opinionated argument
6. Cite sources — reference specific claims and documents so the user can explore further

START NOW. Reference below explains routing and synthesis methodology.
