# ThreadOps Research

Research workflows should keep sources and claims separate until the coordinator
has cross-checked them.

## Lanes

- Source discovery: find official or primary sources.
- Source reading: extract claims and citations from selected sources.
- Cross-check: compare claims and flag contradictions or weak evidence.
- Decision synthesis: coordinator turns evidence into a recommendation.

## Rules

- Use official or primary sources when available.
- Keep citations and uncertainty visible.
- Use `gpt-5.4-mini` for bounded source-reading workers.
- Use a stronger model or higher reasoning for final tradeoff decisions.
- Do not let research workers make the final decision without coordinator review.
