+
+## 5-Step Research Process
+
+### 1. Define the Question
+- What specifically do we need to know?
+- Why? What decision depends on this?
+- What's the scope (broad survey vs deep dive)?
+
+### 2. Gather Sources
+- Academic: Google Scholar, research papers
+- Industry: Reports, surveys, benchmarks
+- Expert: Books, talks, interviews
+- AI-assisted: Perplexity, Elicit, Claude
+- Primary: Customer interviews, surveys
+
+### 3. Evaluate Sources (CRAAP Test)
+
+| Criterion | Question | Score 1-5 |
+|-----------|----------|-----------|
+| **C**urrency | How recent? Still relevant? | |
+| **R**elevance | Does it address our specific question? | |
+| **A**uthority | Who wrote it? Credible? Expert? | |
+| **A**ccuracy | Evidence-based? Peer-reviewed? Verifiable? | |
+| **P**urpose | Objective or biased? Selling something? | |
+
+**Score 20-25:** Highly reliable. **15-19:** Usable with caveats. **Below 15:** Discard.
+
+### 4. Synthesize
+- Extract key findings across sources
+- Identify agreements and contradictions
+- Formulate conclusions with confidence levels
+- Note gaps (what we still don't know)
+
+### 5. Document
+- Research report saved to Obsidian
+- All sources linked with CRAAP ratings
+- Cross-reference with existing KB notes
+- Update relevant MOCs
+
+## Output → Obsidian: `🧠 Knowledge Base/Research/RESEARCH-<topic>-<date>.md`

+# Zettelkasten Process — `/kb zettelkasten <note>`
+
+> **Agent:** Helena C. (Knowledge Curator) | **Framework:** Zettelkasten (Luhmann / Ahrens)
+
+## 3 Note Types
+
+### Fleeting Notes
+- Quick captures during reading, meetings, or thinking
+- Raw, unprocessed, temporary
+- Process within 24-48 hours or discard
+
+### Literature Notes
+- Summarize source material in YOUR OWN WORDS
+- One note per source (book, article, video)
+- Include: key ideas, quotes, your reactions
+- Always cite source
+
+### Permanent Notes
+- One idea per note (atomic)
+- Written as if explaining to someone else
+- Linked to at least 2 other permanent notes
+- Stands alone without context of the source
+
+## Principles
+
+1. **Atomic:** One note = one idea. If you need "and", split it.
+2. **Linked:** Every note connects to at least 2 others. Orphan notes are waste.
+3. **Emergent:** Structure emerges from links, not pre-defined folders.
+4. **Own words:** Never copy-paste. Rephrase forces understanding.
+5. **Future self:** Write for someone who doesn't remember the context.
+
+## Process
+
+```
+Input (book, article, video, conversation)
+  → Fleeting Note (quick capture)
+    → Literature Note (summarize in own words)
+      → Permanent Note (one atomic idea, linked)
+        → MOC update (if cluster grows to 10+ notes)
+```
+
+## In Obsidian
+- Fleeting: `Inbox/` folder, process during daily review
+- Literature: `Sources/` folder with source metadata in frontmatter
+- Permanent: Root or topic folders, connected via `[[wikilinks]]`
+- MOCs: `Maps/` folder, created when clusters emerge
+
+## Output → Processed notes in Obsidian with links and MOC updates
