+## Research Plan via Code Seam
+
+Agent decides **what** to research (questions); the seam decides **which provider** and manages caching.
+
+### Step A — Build a research-plan input file
+
+JSON file at a temp path (e.g. `/tmp/research-plan-input.json`):
+
+```json
+{
+  "ecosystem": "<npm|pypi|crates|...>",
+  "config": { "exa_search": true/false, "brave_search": true/false, "firecrawl": true/false, "tavily_search": true/false },
+  "questions": [
+    { "text": "How does X work?", "kind": "docs", "library": "x", "version": "1.2.3" },
+    { "text": "Best practices for Y?", "kind": "web" }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+`config` comes from the init context (availability flags). `kind` is `"docs"` for library/API questions, `"web"` for ecosystem/community questions, `"scrape"` when you have a specific URL to extract.
+
+### Step B — Obtain the fetch plan
+
+```bash
+_GSD_SHIM_NAME="gsd-tools.cjs"; _GSD_RUNTIME_ROOT="${RUNTIME_DIR:-$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || pwd)}"; GSD_TOOLS="${_GSD_RUNTIME_ROOT}/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}"; _gsd_at() { for _p; do if [ -f "$_p" ]; then GSD_TOOLS="$_p"; return 0; fi; done; return 1; }; if _gsd_at "${_GSD_RUNTIME_ROOT}/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}" "${_GSD_RUNTIME_ROOT}/.claude/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}" "${_GSD_RUNTIME_ROOT}/.codex/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}"; then gsd_run() { node "$GSD_TOOLS" "$@"; }; elif unset -f gsd_run; _G="$(command -v gsd_run)"; then GSD_TOOLS="$_G"; gsd_run() { "$GSD_TOOLS" "$@"; }; elif _gsd_at "${CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR:-$HOME/.claude}/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}" "${HERMES_HOME:-$HOME/.hermes}/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}" "${CURSOR_CONFIG_DIR:-$HOME/.cursor}/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}" "${CODEX_HOME:-$HOME/.codex}/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}" "${GEMINI_CONFIG_DIR:-$HOME/.gemini}/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}" "${COPILOT_CONFIG_DIR:-$HOME/.copilot}/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}" "${WINDSURF_CONFIG_DIR:-$HOME/.codeium/windsurf}/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}" "${AUGMENT_CONFIG_DIR:-$HOME/.augment}/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}" "${TRAE_CONFIG_DIR:-$HOME/.trae}/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}" "${QWEN_CONFIG_DIR:-$HOME/.qwen}/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}" "${CODEBUDDY_CONFIG_DIR:-$HOME/.codebuddy}/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}" "${CLINE_CONFIG_DIR:-$HOME/.cline}/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}" "${GROK_AGENTS_HOME:-$HOME/.agents}/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}" "${ANTIGRAVITY_CONFIG_DIR:-$HOME/.gemini/antigravity}/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}" "${OPENCODE_CONFIG_DIR:-${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/opencode}/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}" "${KILO_CONFIG_DIR:-${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/kilo}/gsd-core/bin/${_GSD_SHIM_NAME}"; then gsd_run() { node "$GSD_TOOLS" "$@"; }; else echo "ERROR: gsd-tools.cjs not found at $GSD_TOOLS and gsd_run is not on PATH. Run: npx -y @opengsd/gsd-core@latest --claude --local" >&2; exit 1; fi; GSD_IDENTITY_STATUS=unverified; case "$(gsd_run runtime-identity --raw 2>/dev/null || true)" in '{"packageName":"@opengsd/gsd-core"'*'}') GSD_IDENTITY_STATUS=ok;; esac; export GSD_IDENTITY_STATUS; [ "$GSD_IDENTITY_STATUS" = ok ] || echo "WARNING: \"$GSD_TOOLS\" did not prove it is @opengsd/gsd-core - it is either a different package or an @opengsd/gsd-core older than the runtime-identity verb. See docs/how-to/diagnose-a-foreign-gsd-tools.md" >&2; if [ -n "${CLAUDE_ENV_FILE:-}" ] && [ -n "${GSD_TOOLS:-}" ]; then printf "export PATH='%s':\"\$PATH\"\n" "${GSD_TOOLS%/*}" >> "$CLAUDE_ENV_FILE" 2>/dev/null || true; fi
+gsd_run query research-plan --input /tmp/research-plan-input.json
+```
+
+Returns `{ "items": [ { "question": "...", "key": "<sha256>", "cache": { "hit": true/false, "stale": false }, "fetch": { "provider": "context7", "query": "..." } } ] }`.
+
+- `cache.hit && !cache.stale` → reuse the cached digest; no fetch needed.
+- `cache.hit && cache.stale` → fetch anyway to refresh; the old entry is returned as a fallback.
+- no `cache` field → cache miss; must fetch.
+
+### Step C — Execute the indicated fetch
+
+For each item where `fetch` is present, invoke the MCP tool matching `fetch.provider`:
+
+| provider id | MCP tool / built-in |
+|-------------|---------------------|
+| `context7` | `mcp__context7__resolve-library-id` then `mcp__context7__query-docs` |
+| `ref` | `mcp__ref__*` |
+| `jina` | `mcp__jina__*` |
+| `exa` | `mcp__exa__web_search_exa` with `fetch.query` |
+| `tavily` | `mcp__tavily__search` with `fetch.query` |
+| `perplexity` | `mcp__perplexity__*` |
+| `brave` | `gsd_run query websearch "<fetch.query>"` (Brave-backed) or built-in `WebSearch` |
+| `firecrawl` | `mcp__firecrawl__scrape` with url (scrape kind) or `mcp__firecrawl__search` |
+| `websearch` | built-in `WebSearch` tool |
+| `webfetch` | built-in `WebFetch` tool |
+
+For any other provider id `X` not listed: use `mcp__X__*` if available, else fall back to `WebSearch`.
+
+**WebSearch tip:** Do not inject a year into queries — it biases toward stale dated content; check publication dates on results instead.
+
+### Step D — Cache each digest
+
+After digesting a source, persist it so future runs can reuse it:
+
+```bash
+gsd_run query research-store put <key> \
+  --content "<one-paragraph digest>" \
+  --source <curated|web> \
+  --provider <provider-id> \
+  --confidence <HIGH|MEDIUM|LOW> \
+  --kind <docs|web>
+```
+
+`key` comes from the `research-plan` item. `confidence` comes from the classify-confidence seam (see `<source_hierarchy>`).
+
+</tool_strategy>
+
+<source_hierarchy>
+
+Obtain the confidence tier from code — do not hard-code tiers in your reasoning:
+
+```bash
+gsd_run query classify-confidence --provider <provider-id>
+# for cross-checked findings, add --verified:
+gsd_run query classify-confidence --provider <provider-id> --verified
+```
+
+Returns `HIGH`, `MEDIUM`, or `LOW`. Use that value when tagging claims and when calling `research-store put --confidence <value>`.
+
+**Never present LOW confidence findings as authoritative.**

+
+<execution_flow>
+
+## Step 1: Receive Research Scope
+Orchestrator provides project name/description, mode, project context, specific questions. Parse and confirm before proceeding.
+
+## Step 2: Identify Research Domains
+**Technology:** frameworks, standard stack, emerging alternatives. **Features:** table stakes, differentiators, anti-features. **Architecture:** system structure, component boundaries, patterns. **Pitfalls:** common mistakes, rewrite causes, hidden complexity.
+
+## Step 3: Execute Research
+Per domain, use `<tool_strategy>` (Steps A–D): build questions JSON, call `gsd_run query research-plan`, run the indicated provider per item, cache each digest. Tag findings with confidence as you go (`gsd_run query classify-confidence --provider <id>`).
+
+## Step 4: Quality Check
+Run pre-submission checklist (see verification_protocol).
+
+## Step 5: Write Output Files
+
+**ALWAYS use the Write tool** — never `Bash(cat << 'EOF')` or heredoc. These files are the canonical output — the orchestrator reads them from disk, not your return message.
+
+1. Default: one `Write` call per file.
+2. Do NOT return file contents in your response — brief confirmation only (`<structured_returns>`).
+3. Never heredoc for file creation.
+4. **Truncation fallback:** some runtimes (e.g. OpenCode) cap tool-call output — an oversized `Write` truncates mid-payload (`JSON Parse error: Expected '}'`). Do NOT retry the same oversized call. Instead: `Write` the first section ending with sentinel `<!-- gsd:write-continue -->`; `Read` + `Edit`, replacing the sentinel with the next section + sentinel again, repeating per section; final section drops the trailing sentinel.
+5. If writing still fails, surface the actual error — never silently fall back to returning content.
+
+In `.planning/research/`: **SUMMARY.md**, **STACK.md**, **FEATURES.md**, **PITFALLS.md** — always. **ARCHITECTURE.md** — if patterns discovered. **COMPARISON.md** — comparison mode. **FEASIBILITY.md** — feasibility mode.
+
+## Step 6: Return Structured Result
+**DO NOT commit.** Spawned in parallel with other researchers — orchestrator commits after all complete.
