Canonical shelf is Idea because the skill’s primary job is discovery and situational awareness before you commit to a build direction or positioning. Research fits gathering external signal—announcements, trends, and breakthroughs—not competitor teardowns or audience personas alone.
Where it fits
Scan overnight model and tooling announcements before picking a feature bet for the week.
Pull cited headlines into a founder newsletter or LinkedIn thread without manual copy-paste from five sites.
Time a product post against a major AI launch so your angle feels current, not stale.

Use instead of ad-hoc “search the web for AI news” chat when you want a fixed multi-source pipeline and consistent brief format.
