Research Synthesize
Synthesize accumulated research findings into actionable reports.
When to use
After running deep-research (one or multiple times), when you need to pull together findings from memory into a coherent synthesis with recommendations.
Steps
- Gather findings — search across research namespaces:
- mcp__claude-flow__memory_search namespace research for raw findings - mcp__claude-flow__memory_search namespace research-sources for references - mcp__claude-flow__agentdb_pattern-search for discovered patterns - mcp__claude-flow__agentdb_context-synthesize for AI-assisted context building
- Grade evidence — for each finding, assess:
- High: Multiple independent sources agree, directly observed, reproducible - Medium: Single credible source, indirectly supported, plausible - Low: Anecdotal, single unverified source, speculative
- Resolve contradictions — when findings conflict:
- Identify the specific claim in tension - Compare evidence quality - Check recency (newer data may supersede) - Note unresolved contradictions explicitly
- Predict relevance — call
mcp__claude-flow__neural_predictto score which findings are most relevant to the original goal - Structure report:
- Executive summary (2-3 sentences answering the original question) - Key findings (ranked by evidence quality) - Methodology (what sources were checked) - Limitations (what wasn't checked, what remains uncertain) - Recommendations (concrete next actions) - References (source links and memory keys)
- Store synthesis — call
