"skill_md_contents": "---\nname: council-evidence-research\ndescription: Use when an Executive Council decision needs external evidence, current facts, scientific literature, official documentation, legal or regulatory sources, product facts, benchmarks, or fact-checking.\n---\n\n# Council Evidence Research\n\nThe Drive defines Samuel's current personal state. External evidence explains how to interpret that state; it does not silently replace it.\n\n## Choose rigor\n### QUICK\nStable, low-risk question. Use a small number of authoritative sources.\n\n### MATERIAL\nCould materially affect money, commitments, career, architecture, or meaningful behavior. Prefer current primary/official sources plus strong independent evidence where useful.\n\n### CRITICAL\nClinical, legal/regulatory, high financial consequence, safety, irreversible action, or major uncertainty. Use multiple high-quality sources, counterevidence, and `council-critical-validation`.\n\n## Workflow\n1. Define the exact decision or question.\n2. Separate known case facts from unknowns.\n3. Identify which evidence could actually change the conclusion.\n4. Search the most authoritative source class first.\n5. Check recency when the fact can change.\n6. Compare sources and expose material conflicts.\n7. Label:\n - FACT: directly supported;\n - INFERENCE: derived from facts;\n - HYPOTHESIS: plausible but unverified;\n - JUDGMENT: evaluative conclusion.\n8. Search for the strongest relevant countercase.\n9. Apply evidence to Samuel's canonical state.\n10. State residual uncertainty and the trigger that would change the conclusion.\n\n## Default source hierarchy\n- law/regulation → official statute, regulator, court, government source;\n- clinical/scientific → guidelines, systematic reviews, high-quality primary studies as appropriate;\n- technology/product → official docs/current vendor source, then independent verification when useful;\n- finance → provider statements/current market data/official terms;\n- uploaded/source document → the document itself before outside knowledge.\n\n## Rules\n- Do not accumulate citations for decoration.\n- Popularity, star count, or SEO rank is not evidence quality.\n- A summary is not the underlying source when the distinction matters.\n- Historical data is not current state.\n- If a required source cannot be consulted, mark the material point INCERTO rather than filling the gap.\n"
