Research Repo Setup

Q: How do I know the Research Repo Setup output is good?

The skill verifies itself against its own quality checks: The unit is the atomic insight, not the study; Every entry carries n, date, and confidence; Tags come from a controlled, question-shaped vocabulary; The deposit ritual is wired into how studies already end.

Set up a research repository the team actually reuses — the atomic-insight format (finding + evidence + source + date), the tagging that makes old research findable by new questions, and the check-the-repo-first norm that stops re-researching. Use when asked set up a research repository, we keep re-learning the same things, where do our user insights live, or make past research findable. Produces the repo structure, the insight-entry format, the intake funnel from studies, and the reuse norms.

What to give it

▸The research backlog — what studies exist (decks, docs, transcripts) and which still get asked about; the back-fill starts with the asked-about, per the greatest-hits rule

▸The question patterns — what the team repeatedly wants to know (segments? churn drivers? feature reactions?); tags are designed from *future questions*, not past study titles

▸The platform — wiki, database tool, docs; filterable-by-tag and full-text-searchable are the two requirements, everything else is taste

▸The research producers and consumers — who deposits, who should check first; the norms name both sides

✅ The bar it holds itself to

Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.

✓The unit is the atomic insight, not the study

✓Every entry carries n, date, and confidence

✓Tags come from a controlled, question-shaped vocabulary

✓The deposit ritual is wired into how studies already end

✓New research briefs open with the repo's existing answer

⚠️ What it refuses to do

Do not file decks and call it a repo — un-atomized studies answer only their original question

Do not strip the epistemics — undated unconfidenced insights age into misinformation

Do not free-form the tags — synonym sprawl is findability death by kindness

Do not plan retroactive mass back-fill — the funnel forward, greatest hits backward

Do not build it without the check-first norm — deposits without withdrawals is a savings account for a library fire
