research- Description
- Use when the user asks a question about their vault, wants to explore a topic across notes, or says "research", "find out", "what do I know about", or "summarize my notes on". Chains semantic search, note reading, and link traversal for deep vault research.

# Deep Vault Research Research a topic across the user's Obsidian vault using a multi-pass approach. ## Workflow 1. **Semantic Discovery** — Call `obsidian_rag_query` with the user's question (limit 5-10). This surfaces the most relevant chunks across the vault. 2. **Targeted Reading** — For each high-relevance result, call `obsidian_read_note` to get the full context. Skim for the most pertinent sections. 3. **Link Traversal** — Check `obsidian_get_links` on the most relevant notes to find connected knowledge. Read promising linked notes. 4. **Synthesis** — Combine findings into a clear answer with citations: - Reference specific notes by name: `[[Note Name]]` - Quote relevant passages when helpful - Note any gaps or contradictions in the vault's knowledge ## Arguments The user's query follows the skill invocation. Example: `/research what do I know about authentication patterns` ## Tips - If RAG returns no results, suggest running `/index` first - For broad topics, do multiple RAG queries with different phrasings - Always cite which notes your answer draws from
