litreview

Academic literature orientation skill that searches papers via Consensus, builds a strategic search plan using PICO (default) or SPIDER / Decomposition / hybrid as fallbacks, and synthesizes findings into a professionally formatted Word document (.docx) research guide. "Grill-me" intake (research question specificity + framework hint + tentative depth) before the recon search; a second forcing checkpoint after Phase 2 confirms framework + sub-areas + depth before searches consume budget. Configurable depth (5/10/20 queries) controls coverage vs. speed. Output is a "launching pad" — not a finished review, but an orientation guide that lets a researcher dive in confidently. Triggers: "litreview on [topic]", "literature review on [topic]", "I'm starting a literature review on X", "I'm writing a paper on X", "help me research X", "I'm doing research on X", "can you help me research X". Do NOT trigger for single one-off paper searches where the user just wants a quick list — that's a plain Consensus search.
