-## Troubleshooting
-### Issue: Don't know which research type to choose
-- **Solution**: Start with research question - "What do I need to know?"
-  - Market viability? → `market`
-  - Best technology? → `technical`
-  - Need AI to research deeper? → `deep_prompt`
-  - Who are competitors? → `competitive`
-  - Who are users? → `user`
-  - Industry understanding? → `domain`
-### Issue: Market research results seem incomplete
-- **Solution**: Increase research_depth to `comprehensive`
-- **Check**: Enable web_research in workflow.yaml
-- **Try**: Run competitive and user research separately for more depth
-### Issue: Deep prompt doesn't work with target platform
-- **Solution**: Review platform-specific best practices in generated prompt
-- **Check**: Ensure context documents are included
-- **Try**: Regenerate with different platform selection
-### Issue: Technical comparison is subjective
-- **Solution**: Add more objective criteria (performance metrics, cost, community size)
-- **Check**: Weight criteria by business importance
-- **Try**: Run pilot implementations for top 2 options
-## Customization
-### Adding New Research Types
-1. Create new instructions file: `instructions-{type}.md`
-2. Create new template file: `template-{type}.md`
-3. Add research type to `workflow.yaml` `research_types` section
-4. Update router logic in `instructions-router.md`
-### Modifying Existing Research Types
-1. Edit appropriate `instructions-{type}.md` file
-2. Update corresponding `template-{type}.md` if needed
-3. Adjust validation criteria in `checklist.md`
-### Creating Custom Frameworks
-Add to `workflow.yaml` `frameworks` section under appropriate research type.
-## Version History
-- **v2.0.0** - Multi-type research system with router architecture
-  - Added deep_prompt research type for AI research platform optimization
-  - Added technical research type for technology evaluation
-  - Consolidated competitive, user, domain under market with focus variants
-  - Router-based instruction loading
-  - Template selection by research type
-  - Enhanced Claude Code subagent support
-- **v1.0.0** - Initial market research only implementation
-  - Single-purpose market research workflow
-  - Now deprecated in favor of v2.0.0 multi-type system
-## Support
-For issues or questions:
-- Review workflow creation guide at `/bmad/bmb/workflows/create-workflow/workflow-creation-guide.md`
-- Check validation against `checklist.md`
-- Examine router logic in `instructions-router.md`
-- Review research type-specific instructions
-- Consult BMAD Method v6 documentation
-## Migration from v1.0 market-research
-If you're used to the standalone `market-research` workflow:
-```bash
-# Old way
-workflow market-research
-# New way
-workflow research --type market
-# Or just: workflow research (then select market)
-```
-All market research functionality is preserved and enhanced in v2.0.0.
