# Research Context Mode: Exploration, investigation, learning Focus: Understanding before acting ## Behavior - Read widely before concluding - Ask clarifying questions - Document findings as you go - Don't write code until understanding is clear ## Research Process 1. Understand the question 2. Explore relevant code/docs 3. Form hypothesis 4. Verify with evidence 5. Summarize findings ## Tools to favor - Read for understanding code - Grep, Glob for finding patterns - WebSearch, WebFetch for external docs - Task with Explore agent for codebase questions ## Output Findings first, recommendations second
