Investigation Workflow Skill

Purpose

This skill provides a systematic 6-phase workflow for investigating and understanding existing systems, codebases, and architectures. Unlike development workflows optimized for implementation, this workflow is optimized for exploration, understanding, and knowledge capture.

When to Use This Skill

Investigation Tasks (use this workflow):

• "Investigate how the authentication system works"
• "Explain the neo4j memory integration"
• "Understand why CI is failing consistently"
• "Analyze the reflection system architecture"
• "Research what hooks are triggered during session start"

Development Tasks (use DEFAULT_WORKFLOW.md instead):
