AB research-methodology
Plan, conduct, evaluate, and synthesize rigorous research investigations with credible evidence and a traceable method, including source-to-claim closure for media evidence. Do not use this skill for repeated source extraction and durable note orchestration; use `research-and-vault` for that capture workflow, or `ffmpeg` for media operations.

Process rating: all ten parameters 72/100
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 0Failures and branches. Linear process with no failure handling
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (web) that frontmatter does not declare
- 100Steps. 23 steps
- 100Result and completion. Output format and completion criterion are stated
- 100When it triggers. States when to use and when not to
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 2096 tokens
- 100Running it twice. No mutating operations
- 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
- low No test case covers injection arriving through data
Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
