# Phase 14: Dedicated Researcher Agent Verification Report
|
||||
|
||||
**Phase Goal:** Create gsd-researcher agent with research methodology baked in, refactor research commands to spawn specialized agents
|
||||
**Verified:** 2026-01-15
|
||||
**Status:** PASSED
|
||||
**Re-verification:** No - initial verification
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
| 7 | Workflows deprecated with redirect to agent | VERIFIED | Both workflow files contain "DEPRECATED" notice pointing to `agents/gsd-researcher.md` |
|
||||
|
||||
**Score:** 7/7 truths verified

### Required Artifacts
|
||||
|
||||
| Artifact | Expected | Status | Details |
|

|
||||
| `commands/gsd/research-phase.md` | <200 lines, spawns agent | VERIFIED | 130 lines, references gsd-researcher 5 times |
|
||||
| `commands/gsd/research-project.md` | <200 lines, spawns 4 parallel | VERIFIED | 137 lines, 4 Task spawns with gsd-researcher |

### Key Link Verification
|
||||
|
||||
| From | To | Via | Status | Details |
|
||||
|------|-----|-----|--------|---------|
|
||||
| `research-phase.md` | `gsd-researcher.md` | Task spawn | WIRED | Line 84: `subagent_type="gsd-researcher"` |
|
||||
| `research-project.md` | `gsd-researcher.md` | 4x Task spawn | WIRED | Lines 72, 76, 80, 84: parallel spawns |
|
||||
| `research-subagent-prompt.md` | `gsd-researcher.md` | Template reference | WIRED | Template notes agent contains methodology |
|
||||
|
||||
### Requirements Coverage
|
||||
|
||||
Phase 14 requirements from ROADMAP:
|
||||
- **Create gsd-researcher agent**: SATISFIED - 902 line agent with complete methodology
|
||||
- **Refactor /gsd:research-phase**: SATISFIED - 130 line thin orchestrator
|
||||
- **Refactor /gsd:research-project**: SATISFIED - 137 line parallel orchestrator
|
||||
|
||||
### Anti-Patterns Found
|
||||
|
||||
| File | Line | Pattern | Severity | Impact |
|
||||
|------|------|---------|----------|--------|
|
||||
| None | - | - | - | - |
|
||||
|
||||
No TODO, FIXME, placeholder, or stub patterns found in any phase artifacts.
|
||||
|
||||
### Human Verification Required
|
||||
|
||||
None - all phase artifacts are documentation/prompts that can be verified structurally.
|
||||
|
||||
### Verification Summary
|
||||
|
||||
Phase 14 goal fully achieved:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **gsd-researcher agent** (902 lines) consolidates ~1,200 lines of research methodology from:
|
||||
- research-phase.md workflow (~450 lines)
|
||||
- research-project.md workflow (~430 lines)
|
||||
- research-pitfalls.md reference (~160 lines)
|
||||
- research.md template (~160 lines)
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Thin orchestrator pattern** applied to both research commands:
|
||||
- `/gsd:research-phase`: 130 lines (down from ~530 combined)
|
||||
- `/gsd:research-project`: 137 lines with parallel agent spawning
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Deprecation notices** added to all superseded files with clear redirect to new agent location
|
||||
|
||||
4. **All 4 research modes** fully documented: ecosystem, feasibility, implementation, comparison
|
||||
|
||||
5. **Tool strategy** explicit: Context7 > Official docs > WebSearch with verification protocol
|
||||
|
||||
6. **Source hierarchy** with confidence levels: HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW
|
||||
|
||||
7. **Verification protocol** includes all 8 pitfalls from original reference
