ResearchCLARA

Output: A structured summary of past programme learnings with patterns, contradictions, adjacent work, and source citations.

Paste into a CLARA-enabled chat

CLARA will confirm the route, ask for anything she still needs in one batched question, and show you the draft before filing.

Use CLARA's `prior-knowledge-summariser` for <programme name>.

What CLARA will ask you for

  • Programme name — your programme's name (e.g. SKYPROTECT).
  • Track — the slice of the programme this artefact belongs to (workstream, capability area, feature line, etc.), or Programme-wide if it spans tracks.
  • Topic — what topic or domain you're researching. Be specific: "scheduling operator interviews around shift patterns", not "user research".
  • Inputs — CLARA will search the programme's Confluence space for past programme writeups touching the topic. You can also paste fresh material if it's not in Confluence yet.

Where the output lands

Knowledge Base/{{track}}/Prior-knowledge/{{topic}} inside your programme's Confluence space.

Tips

  • Be specific with the topic. Broader queries return mush.
  • If the response is shallow, follow up with: "Go deeper on the recurring patterns — what specifically were the failure modes?"
  • Treat citations as the deliverable. If a finding has no citation, treat it as a hypothesis, not a fact.
  • Confirm CLARA's source list before she generates the summary. Wrong pages picked up here cascade into every downstream artefact — catch it upfront.
