Investigate with Evidence
Resolve the factual uncertainty that could change the current judgment. This is the shared investigation method for expand-the-frame and challenge-the-claim, and can also answer a direct factual investigation request. The consuming task owns the question, scope, and decision; this skill supplies evidence and its limits. A request to investigate permits bounded, reversible local checks within existing permissions, not product implementation or external publication.
Return evidence to the consuming task. General factual inquiries can finish in the conversation. Before creating a persistent Working Record, apply record eligibility; using this investigation method does not itself start a recording workflow.
English output
simple-english is optional. If it is installed and readable, use it when
writing or revising English prose. Reuse instructions already loaded.
If it is unavailable, write clear English and complete the task normally.
Its absence does not require installation, an exception, or draft-only delivery.
Preserve meaning, uncertainty, requirement strength, domain terms, and requested formats when style rules conflict. Keep the requested language. Preserve code, identifiers, commands, original quotations, and historical evidence.
