Ariadne Research Pipeline

Create the minimum repeatable research topology inside one explicitly authorized scope. This skill owns topology, not source compilation, semantic disposition, or scope creation.

Authorization

1. Read root instructions and every applicable ancestor scope instruction through the target.
2. Read root and local indexes, agent navigation, routing matrices, existing research hubs, and knowledge-processing architecture progressively.
3. In a multi-scope vault, require a current-turn named or confirmed target. One likely match, search result, prior conversation, or current directory is not authorization.
4. Inventory read-only, then state an explicit allowed_write_set. Include the target subtree plus every individually named parent hub, routing matrix, root Base formula, or other external file to change.
5. Parent/root wiring is a visible obligation, never implicit authorization. Defer paths outside the set.

Use ariadne:scope when a new or promoted scope is required. Apply ariadne:navigation patterns inside this boundary; defer durable cross-scope navigation to that skill. Use ariadne:research-ingest for new material, ariadne:knowledge-capture for authorized raw and compiled writes, and ariadne:research-synthesis for semantic dispositions.

Boundary Descriptor

Create exactly one canonical Markdown research boundary descriptor identified by frontmatter rather than folder name:

---
type: research-boundary
research_schema: 1
boundary_id: stable-local-id
scope_path: Domains/Example
raw_hub: "[[Domains/Example/Raw/Sources/00 Source Index]]"
compiled_hub: "[[Domains/Example/Research/00 Research Index]]"
inquiry_hub: "[[Domains/Example/Questions/00 Questions Index]]"
synthesis_hub: "[[Domains/Example/Research/00 Example Research Synthesis]]"
thread_hub: "[[Domains/Example/Relationships/Example Research Thread]]"
view_mode: exact
rollup_boundaries: []
---

Use vault-relative paths and path-qualified links. inquiry_hub and synthesis_hub are required canonical entry points, even when the minimum pipeline is otherwise small. Only thread_hub is optional when the local workflow does not use one. view_mode: exact includes only artifacts whose research_boundary points to this descriptor. Use rollup only with explicitly listed descendant descriptors. Folder ancestry never establishes membership.
