How to use
/user-research-integrationApply research integration constraints to this conversation./user-research-integration <question>Design a research approach for the described question.
Constraints
When to Research
- MUST research before building when: the problem is unclear, the solution is novel, or the stakes are high
- SHOULD research during building when: usability is uncertain or you're choosing between approaches
- MUST research after building when: adoption is lower than expected or metrics tell a confusing story
- NEVER research to validate a decision that's already been made. That's confirmation bias with extra steps.
- NEVER research when the answer is obvious and you're just delaying the decision
