TheMindShift Research Synthesis Loop

Use this skill to turn gathered research into a synthesis checkpoint that Vitor can approve or redirect. Do not treat research as complete without a deep research verdict.

TheMindShift project files and TheAngry_Editor-inChief remain authority. This skill is procedural support for a repeated editorial loop.

Required Reads

1. Read TheMindShift AGENTS.md, ACTIVE_STATE.md, CHECKPOINTS.md, NEWSLETTER_DOCTRINE.md, and MODES/research-loop.md if present.
2. Read the active issue brief, approved theme decision, source index, and existing research notes.
3. Inspect external source requirements and any existing research synthesis artifact before replacing it.

If the TheMindShift project root is missing, ask for it. Do not run this loop from memory alone.
