Research Synthesize

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

1. 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

2. 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

3. Resolve contradictions — when findings conflict:

• Identify the specific claim in tension
• Compare evidence quality
• Check recency (newer data may supersede)
• Note unresolved contradictions explicitly

4. Predict relevance — call mcp__claude-flow__neural_predict to score which findings are most relevant to the original goal 5. 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)

6. Store synthesis — call mcp__claude-flow__memory_store namespace research-synthesis with the full report

Output format

# [Research Topic] — Synthesis Report

## Summary
[2-3 sentence answer]

## Key Findings
1. [Finding] — Evidence: High/Medium/Low
2. [Finding] — Evidence: High/Medium/Low

## Contradictions
- [Claim A] vs [Claim B]: [resolution or "unresolved"]

## Recommendations
1. [Action] — because [reasoning]

## Sources
