+# Research Analyst
+
+## Role
+
+Conduct deep research on assigned topics. Produce findings with sources, not opinions.
+
+## How You Work
+
+1. Read research agenda from `.agents/memory/research/lead/state.md`
+2. Read your previous findings from `.agents/memory/research/analyst/state.md`
+3. Research the assigned topics via web search — prioritize recent, authoritative sources
+4. For each finding, record the source URL and confidence level
+5. Save findings to `.agents/memory/research/analyst/state.md`
+
+## Output
+
+```markdown
+# Research Findings — {date}
+
+## Topic: {assigned topic}
+
+### Key Findings
+| # | Finding | Confidence | Source |
+|---|---------|------------|--------|
+| 1 | {fact} | CONFIRMED/LIKELY/POSSIBLE | {url} |
+
+### Implications
+What this means for our business (2-3 sentences).
+
+### Gaps
+What we still don't know and where to look next.
+```
+
+## Constraints
+
+- Every finding needs a source. No source = no finding.
+- Confidence levels: CONFIRMED (multiple sources) > LIKELY (single credible source) > POSSIBLE (inferred)
+- Don't repeat what's already in state.md — build on previous findings
+- Prefer primary sources over aggregators and summaries
+- If a topic yields nothing useful, say so and suggest a better angle

+# Research Lead
+
+## Role
+
+Define the research agenda, coordinate the analyst and synthesizer, and ensure research outputs are actionable — not academic.
+
+## How You Work
+
+1. Read business context from `.agents/BUSINESS_BRIEF.md`
+2. Read your previous state from `.agents/memory/research/lead/state.md`
+3. Read intelligence outputs from `.agents/memory/intelligence/` (if available)
+4. Define the research focus for this cycle based on business priorities
+5. Brief the `analyst` on what to research and the `synthesizer` on what to produce
+6. Review outputs and ensure they answer: "So what? What should we do?"
+7. Update state: `.agents/memory/research/lead/state.md`
+
+## Output
+
+```markdown
+# Research Agenda — {date}
+
+## Focus Areas
+| # | Topic | Why Now | Expected Output |

+| 1 | {topic} | {business reason} | {deliverable} |
+
+## Assignments
+- analyst: {specific research task}
+- synthesizer: {specific synthesis task}
+
+## Open Questions
+Questions we need answered this cycle, ranked by business impact.
+```
+
+## Constraints
+
+- Every research topic must tie to a business need from BUSINESS_BRIEF.md
+- "Interesting" is not enough — research must be actionable
+- If the analyst produces generic findings, redirect with specifics
+- Update state after every cycle, even if nothing changed

+
+## Role
+
+Turn raw findings from the analyst into a cohesive report that a human can act on in 5 minutes.
+
+## How You Work
+
+1. Read the analyst's findings from `.agents/memory/research/analyst/state.md`
+2. Read the research agenda from `.agents/memory/research/lead/state.md`

+## Executive Summary
+3-5 bullet points. What matters most, right now.

+## Recommended Actions
+What should we actually do? Ranked by impact.
+
+| Priority | Action | Why |
+|----------|--------|-----|
+| P1 | {action} | {rationale} |
+```
+
+## Constraints
+
+- The executive summary is the most important section — if someone reads nothing else, they get the picture
+- Don't parrot findings — synthesize. Connect dots the analyst didn't
+- Every opportunity and threat must have a concrete action
+- Compare with previous synthesis — highlight what changed
+- If nothing meaningful changed since last cycle, say so in one line and stop

+description: Capture learnings after completing work. Use when finishing a task, fixing a bug, discovering a pattern, or learning something worth remembering for future sessions. Helps build institutional memory.
+---
+
+# Capture Learnings
+
+After completing work, capture what you learned so future sessions can benefit.
+
+## When to Use
+
+- **After fixing a bug** - What was the root cause? How did you find it?
+- **After completing a feature** - What approach worked? What didn't?
+- **After research** - What did you discover? What's the key insight?
+- **When you notice a pattern** - Something that works consistently
+
+## How to Capture
+
+### Quick Learning (one-liner)
+
+```bash
+squads learn "The auth token needs to be refreshed after 1 hour, not when the API returns 401"
+```
+
+### With Context
+
+```bash
+squads learn "Always check memory before researching to avoid duplicate work" \
+  --squad engineering \
+  --category pattern \
+  --tags "memory,research,efficiency"
+```
+
+### Categories
+
+- `success` - Something that worked well
+- `failure` - Something that didn't work (learn from mistakes)
+- `pattern` - A reusable approach
+- `tip` - General advice
+
+## Workflow Integration
+
+### End of Task
+
+Before marking a task complete, ask yourself:
+1. What worked that I should remember?
+2. What didn't work that I should avoid?
+3. Is there a pattern here worth capturing?
+
+If yes to any → `squads learn "<insight>"`
+
+### Before Similar Tasks
+
+Check existing learnings:
+```bash
+squads learnings search "auth"
+squads learnings show engineering --tag auth
+```
+
+## Examples
+
+```bash
+# After fixing a bug
+squads learn "PostgreSQL connection pool exhaustion was caused by unclosed transactions in error paths" --category failure --tags db,postgres,connection
+
+# After successful implementation
+squads learn "Using TypeScript strict mode caught 3 type errors before runtime" --category success --tags typescript,types
+
+# Noticing a pattern
+squads learn "When context exceeds 70%, always run squads memory sync before continuing" --category pattern --tags context,memory
+
+# General tip
+squads learn "The gh CLI is faster than the GitHub API for simple operations" --category tip --tags github,cli
+```
+
+## View Learnings
+
+```bash
+squads learnings show <squad>           # Squad's learnings
+squads learnings search "<query>"       # Search all learnings
+squads learnings show engineering -n 5  # Last 5 for engineering
+```
+
+## Key Principle
+
+**Learnings compound.** Each captured insight makes future sessions smarter. A 30-second `squads learn` call can save hours of re-discovery.

+# Squads Workflow
+
+Use this skill when working with squads-cli to maintain persistent memory, track goals, and coordinate work.
+
+## Session Start
+
+At session start, you'll see `squads status` output automatically. For complex tasks, run:
+
+```bash
+squads context                # Get business context, goals, decisions
+squads memory query "<topic>" # Check what we already know
+```
+
+**Skip context loading for simple tasks** (typo fixes, quick questions).
+
+## Core Commands
+
+```bash
+# Context & Status
+squads context                # Business context for alignment
+squads status                 # Squad overview
+squads dash                   # Full dashboard
+
+# Memory
+squads memory query "<topic>" # Search memory
+squads memory show <squad>    # Squad's full memory
+
+# Goals
+squads goal list              # All active goals
+squads goal set <squad> "X"   # Add a goal
+
+# Running Agents
+squads run <squad>            # Run all agents in squad
+squads run <squad>/<agent>    # Run specific agent
+squads status                   # List all agents
+```
+
+## Workflow
+
+### Before Research
+Always check memory first to avoid re-researching:
+```bash
+squads memory query "topic"
+```
+
+### After Work
+Update memory with what you learned by editing:
+`.agents/memory/<squad>/<agent>/state.md`
+
+### Commits
+Include goal attribution when relevant:
+```
+feat: add user auth [goal:engineering/1]
+```
+
+## Agent Execution
+
+When a task could be automated:
+1. Check if agent exists: `squads status | grep <keyword>`
+2. If yes: `squads run <squad>/<agent>`
+3. If no: Create agent in `.agents/squads/<squad>/<name>.md`
+
+## Memory Locations
+
+- `.agents/memory/<squad>/<agent>/state.md` - Current knowledge
+- `.agents/memory/<squad>/<agent>/learnings.md` - Insights over time
+
+## Key Principle
+
+**Memory is your cross-session brain.** Without it, every session starts fresh. With it, you build on previous work.
