Shared Resources
Load these references at the start of any investigation. A references index is available for a quick map of all shared files.
- Unified Investigation Template — output structure for all investigation work
- Investigation Workflow — mermaid diagrams of the full scientific method flow
Companion Skill
evidence-first-debugging handles observation recording, evidence IDs, and causality
validation. Both skills use the same Unified Investigation Template output structure. Load
evidence-first-debugging when the task requires structured evidence tracking alongside

'--auto {title}': autonomous mode — no AskUserQuestion, derives data from research files, logs decisions. 'close {title}': dismiss without completion — reason required (duplicate, out_of_scope, superseded, wontfix, blocked). ADR-9. 'resolve {title}': mark DONE with evidence trail — summary required. ADR-9. 'setup-github': init labels, project, milestone. '--language' and '--stack' select Layer 1/2 profile. STOPS if item has Plan field or RT-ICA returns BLOCKED.
