The suite provides native research commands across all supported platforms:

| Feature | Command (Claude) | Slash (Gemini) | Skill (Codex) |

|---------|------------------|----------------|---------------|

| Research Project | /research | /research | $research |

| Methodology | /methodology | /methodology | $methodology |

| Critical Analysis | /analyze | /analyze | $analyze |

| Bibliography | /bibliography | /bibliography | $bibliography |

| Synthesize | /synthesize | /synthesize | $synthesize |

| Peer Review | /review | /review | $review |

| Ethical Risk | /ethics | /ethics | $ethics |

| Grant Proposal | /grant | /grant | $grant |

The /research command features intelligent agent orchestration that automatically:

• Analyzes your research question
• Selects optimal agents for your specific needs
• Creates an execution plan with clear phases
• Coordinates multi-agent workflows

Usage Modes

Interactive Mode (default - recommended):

```bash

/research "impact of social media on teenage mental health"

```

Review and approve the execution plan before agents run.

Auto Mode (for trusted workflows):

```bash

/research "climate change mitigation strategies" --auto

```

Executes the plan automatically without confirmation.

Plan-Only Mode (for review):

```bash

/research "AI ethics frameworks" --plan-only

```

Generates execution plan but doesn't run it.

Example Workflow

```bash

# 1. Start research with orchestration

/research "effectiveness of remote work on productivity"

# The engine will:

# - literature-reviewer: Find recent studies on remote work outcomes

# - critical-analyzer: Evaluate methodology and bias in key studies

# - quant-analyst: Interpret effect sizes and statistical significance

# - hypothesis-explorer: Map variables (work location, productivity metrics, confounds)

# 2. Review generated plan and approve execution

# 3. Agents run in coordinated sequence

# 4. Receive integrated findings

```

Templates

Pre-configured agent combinations for common scenarios:

```bash

/research "topic" --template=quick # Fast literature scan

/research "topic" --template=rigorous # Full systematic review

/research "topic" --template=comprehensive # Deep multi-method analysis

```
