Storage

Directory Structure

All Research artifacts are stored in your project's .metapowers/research/ directory, organized by topic:

.metapowers/research/<topic>/
  01-discover.md       ← Broad research and data gathering
  02-define.md         ← Problem statement and research plan
  03-design.md         ← Solution concepts and evaluation
  04-deliver.md        ← Validated recommendations
  skip-log.md          ← Prerequisite bypass log

File Naming Convention

Research artifacts use a numbered prefix pattern (01- through 04-) corresponding to each phase of the Double Diamond process. This ensures files are listed in phase order and makes it clear which phase produced each artifact.

Accessing Artifacts

To find Research artifacts from other domains:

1. List available topics: check directories under .metapowers/research/
2. Read a specific phase artifact: .metapowers/research/<topic>/04-deliver.md
3. The final recommendations in 04-deliver.md are the most commonly referenced artifact — they contain validated findings, prioritized action items, and success criteria assessments
