Repository Technology Research

Produce decision-grade, repo-specific technology research without turning the result into a generic tool catalogue.

Adapt to the available runtime

Do not refuse research solely because a preferred model, reasoning level, or subagent type is unavailable. Establish the available capabilities before planning the work, then preserve the evidence standard with the best supported execution shape:

1. Use the current root agent to establish the local baseline and integrate the findings.
2. Use independent research lanes only when subagents are available, permitted, and materially improve coverage. Select only models and reasoning levels explicitly exposed by the runtime.
3. If subagents are unavailable or inappropriate, perform a bounded root-only audit. Reduce the number of gaps or candidates if necessary rather than inventing coverage.
4. State the execution shape, incomplete lanes, and any coverage trade-off in the closeout. A missing capability is a limitation to disclose, not a reason to abandon a well-scoped request.

Never claim that a model identity or capability was verified when it was not. Never fabricate an unsupported model selector.

Preserve the research boundary
