Rails Deep Research

Conduct comprehensive, multi-source research on complex Rails and Ruby topics. Systematically gather, evaluate, and synthesize information into structured reports with proper citations.

Autonomy principle: Operate independently. Infer what the user needs from the query. Only stop for critical ambiguity or incomprehensible questions — not for every missing detail.

When to Use

Activate this skill when the request matches any of these:

• "Research X", "deep dive on X", "what's the best approach for X in Rails"
• Architecture decisions: "Should we use Sidekiq or Solid Queue?", "Pundit vs CanCanCan?"
• Security: "What are the current Rails security best practices?", "Are there known vulnerabilities in gem X?"
• Performance: "How should we approach caching in Rails 8?", "What's the fastest way to serialize JSON?"
• Migration: "How do we upgrade from Rails 7 to Rails 8?", "How to move from Sidekiq to Solid Queue?"
• "Pros and cons of X", "benchmark X vs Y in Ruby"
• White paper, briefing, or technical overview of a Rails topic
