Editing The Research Pipeline (section)

== 📋 Plan first (Planners start here) ==

Here's what you're about to do:
# '''Formulate a research question''' — Choose something decision-relevant. Use AI to decompose it into sub-questions with defined evidence standards.
# '''Gather evidence by sub-question''' — Run separate queries for each sub-question, requiring the AI to grade its own evidence quality (strong/moderate/weak).
# '''Analyze contradictions''' — Feed all findings into a fresh session and ask for conflict analysis. Identify which conflicts are real vs. caused by weak evidence.
# '''Write your own synthesis''' — Produce a 500-word brief that answers the question, cites evidence with quality grades, and states what would change your mind.
# '''Assess the pipeline''' — Evaluate whether this process produced a meaningfully better answer than a single AI query would have.

'''"Done" looks like:''' A research brief that clearly distinguishes strong from weak evidence, acknowledges uncertainty, and provides a decision-ready answer with stated confidence.
