research — Production research protocol

Degree of freedom: MIXED. Repo-first inventory and official-docs order [LOW freedom — run exactly]. Which sources to trust and which pattern to recommend [HIGH freedom].

Understand the current repo first. Then fetch version-matched official docs. Then map findings back to specific files. Do not implement until the user asks or approves. Recognizing a library, tool, or product name is not knowing its current state. Search the name as written and fetch the installed version's docs even when you think you already know the answer — that is the whole point of this skill.
