Add items (research objects) to existing research outline.

Instructions onlyResearch & Analysis
AI-generated overview

Adds new research items to an existing outline.yaml research outline, optionally using web search, and saves the updated file.

What it does
This skill supplements an existing research outline by locating an outline.yaml file in the working directory and reading it. It gathers additional research items by asking the user and optionally launching an agent to search the web. It then merges the new items into the outline, avoids duplicates, shows the result for confirmation, and saves the updated file in place.
When to use it
Use it when a research outline already exists and needs more research objects or items added. It fits workflows where the user wants to extend a topic list, optionally discovering additional items through web search.
Requirements
Requires an existing outline.yaml file in the working directory. Web search is optional and depends on an agent with search capability; no scripts are shipped.
