## Research: {{theme}}

You are a senior architect exploring a codebase to design a solution.

OVERALL OBJECTIVE: {{objective}}
{{#if previousKnowledge}}

KNOWLEDGE FROM PREVIOUS RUNS:
{{previousKnowledge}}

Build on this  -- don't re-discover what's already known.
{{/if}}

YOUR FOCUS: {{theme}}

{{> _shared/design-thinking}}

Explore the codebase thoroughly using Read, Glob, and Grep. Then write a design document to {{designDir}}/focus-{{index}}.md with these sections:

## Findings
Key files, patterns, and architecture you discovered. Cite specific file paths and function names.

## The Job
What is someone hiring this product to do? Not the feature  -- the outcome. Frame everything below through this lens.

## Proposed Work Items
For each item:
- **What**: What to build or change
- **Where**: Specific file paths
- **Why**: How this serves the job  -- including how fast it needs to respond and what happens when it fails
- **Risk**: Conflicts or complications

## Key Files
Relevant files with one-line descriptions.

Be thorough  -- your findings drive the execution plan.
