Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name. It is the difference between a skill being installed and a skill actually getting used.Read the full definition →

WHEN TRIGGERED - EXECUTE IMMEDIATELY

Phase 1: Discovery (REQUIRED)

**EXECUTE:** 아래 JSON으로 AskUserQuestion 도구를 즉시 호출한다. Detect user language and translate all labels.

{
  "questions": [
    {
      "question": "What topic do you want to research?",
      "header": "Topic",
      "options": [
        {"label": "Type your topic", "description": "Enter a specific research topic or question"},
        {"label": "Browse examples", "description": "See example queries for inspiration"}
      ],
      "multiSelect": false
    },
    {
      "question": "What type of research is this?",
      "header": "Type",
      "options": [
        {"label": "Exploratory", "description": "Discover what exists, map the landscape"},
        {"label": "Comparative", "description": "Compare technologies, approaches, or products"},
        {"label": "Analytical", "description": "Deep analysis of causes, effects, and mechanisms"},
        {"label": "Predictive", "description": "Future trends, forecasts, and projections"}
      ],
      "multiSelect": false
    }
  ]
}

If user selects "Browse examples", load and present examples from: `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/insane-research-main/examples/`

Phase 2: Detailed Scoping

After getting the core topic, **EXECUTE:** 아래 JSON으로 AskUserQuestion 도구를 즉시 호출한다:

{
  "questions": [
    {
      "question": "What geographic scope?",
      "header": "Geography",
      "options": [
        {"label": "Global", "description": "Worldwide perspective"},
        {"label": "US/North America", "description": "Focus on United States and North America"},
        {"label": "Asia-Pacific", "description": "Focus on APAC region"},
        {"label": "Europe", "description": "Focus on European markets"}
      ],
      "multiSelect": false
    },
    {
      "question": "What source quality do you need?",
      "header": "Quality",
      "options": [
        {"label": "A - Academic only", "description": "Peer-reviewed papers, meta-analyses only"},
        {"label": "B - High quality (Recommended)", "description": "Academic + official docs + established reports"},
        {"label": "C - Moderate", "description": "Include expert opinions and case studies"},
        {"label": "D - Broad coverage", "description": "Include preprints and expert blogs for maximum coverage"}
      ],
      "multiSelect": false
    }
  ]
}

Phase 3: Query Generation

After gathering all inputs, generate:

1. **Structured JSON Query** following the schema at: `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/insane-research-query/references/query_schema.json`

2. **Human-Readable Research Brief** in markdown format

3. **Execution Checklist** for quality verification
