Select a few items, close the door, and study them together without distraction from the rest of the collection.\n\n\n## Workflow\n\n### Step 1: Define the Corpus\n\nDetermine what items belong in the research session:\n\n**If the user named specific items:**\n- Search for each item and confirm it's in the collection\n- Load details for each\n\n**If the user named a topic:**\n- Search across media types for relevant items\n- Present the candidates and let the user confirm the corpus\n- \"I found these 6 items related to [topic]. Should I include all of them, or do you want to narrow it down?\"\n\n**If no items specified:**\n- Ask what they want to research\n- Help them define the corpus through conversation\n\n### Step 2: Enter Research Mode\n\nUsing the **focused-research** skill, establish containment:\n\n```\nget_scope_info()                    # All items in research scope\nget_details(media_type, title)      # For each item in corpus\n```\n\nFor small corpora (under 10 items), load full details for everything. For larger sets, load details as needed during analysis.\n\nAnnounce the scope clearly:\n\n```\n**Research corpus:** [N] items\n- [Title 1] ([media type])\n- [Title 2] ([media type])\n- [Title 3] ([media type])\n\nI'll focus exclusively on these items. Ask me to expand if you want to bring something else in.\n```\n\n### Step 3: Identify the Research Question\n\nWhat are we studying here? The user may have stated it explicitly or it may emerge from the corpus:\n\n- **Comparative**: How do these items approach [theme] differently?\n- **Chronological**: How did this idea evolve across these works?\n- **Influence**: How did one creator influence another?\n- **Synthesis**: What do these items illuminate together that they can't alone?\n\n### Step 4: Conduct the Research\n\nUsing **focused-research** skill methodology:\n\n**Comparative analysis:**\n- Shared themes, contrasting perspectives\n- How each item contributes a different angle on the same idea\n\n**Deep reading (for books with uploaded content):**\n```\nsearch_book_content(book_title=\"...\", query=\"concept\")\n```\n- Quote directly from texts\n- Cross-reference passages across multiple books\n\n**Visual/audio analysis:**\n```\nsearch_youtube(query=\"relevant video essay or performance\")\nget_track_previews(album_title=\"...\")\n```\n\n**External context:**\n- Research production history, author interviews, critical reception\n- Use web search to fill gaps in context\n\n### Step 5: Present Findings\n\nFrame as scholarly but accessible. Quote the works. Make connections explicit. End with research-oriented follow-up prompts.\n\n## Output Format\n\n```\n## Research: [Topic or Theme]\n\n**Corpus:** [N] items, [brief list]\n**Central question:** [What we're investigating]\n\n---\n\n### [Finding 1: The Core Insight]\n\n[2-3 paragraphs developing the main insight from studying these items together.\nQuote from works where possible. Reference specific scenes, passages, tracks.]\n\n[Embedded media if relevant]\n\n### [Finding 2: The Unexpected Connection]\n\n[Something that only becomes visible when you study these items side by side]\n\n### [Finding 3: The Tension]\n\n[Where these items disagree or approach the theme from opposing directions.\nTensions are often more interesting than agreements.]\n\n---\n\n### Synthesis\n\n[1-2 paragraphs pulling it together. What do these items illuminate collectively?\nWhat would be lost if you studied any one of them alone?]\n\n### Open Questions\n\n[What this research raises but doesn't resolve. Invitations for further exploration.]\n\n```\n\n## Notes\n\n- Containment is sacred. Do not reference items outside the corpus unless the user asks to expand\n- The user drives corpus expansion, never proactively suggest adding items\n- If the corpus is just one item, this becomes a deep dive. Suggest `/deep-dive` instead, or proceed as a single-item study\n- For book-heavy corpora, lean heavily on `search_book_content()`, direct quotes make research tangible\n- End each response with prompts that push the research forward, not sideways\n"
