Research Synthesize

Apply external research findings to the project.

When to Use

• Have research documents to process
• Need to map findings to project constraints
• Filtering relevant insights

Approach

Phase 1: Research Ingestion

• Document inventory
• Cross-reference themes

Phase 2: Relevance Filtering

Score each finding:

Threshold: Discard if Relevance < 3 OR Feasibility < 3.

Phase 3: Mapping to Existing Systems

• Map to design tokens/components
• Note adaptation requirements
• Check dependency constraints

Phase 4: Recommendation Synthesis

• Ranked recommendations
• Implementation hints
• Open questions

Output

RESEARCH-APPLICATION-[FEATURE-NAME].md ending with: "These are the top recommendations. Ready for PRD scoping?"

Constraints

• No original ideation — recommendations trace to research
• No new dependencies without approval
• No code generation
