User Research Synthesis
Turns a pile of interviews into patterns with evidence, keeping the disconfirming cases rather than smoothing them away.

Expert Interview Guide
Asks what they have changed their mind about, which is where the non-consensus view lives.
ClaudeChatGPT000Open → - Research
Research Question Refinement
Narrows until the question is answerable, since broad questions produce work nobody can act on.

Timeboxes and defines done, since desk research otherwise expands to fill the whole project.
ClaudeChatGPT000Open → - Research
Diary Study Design
Prompts at the moment rather than at the end of the day, since recall degrades within hours.
ClaudeChatGPT000Open → - Research
Usability Test Script
Gives tasks rather than instructions, since the moment you say where to click the test is over.
ClaudeChatGPT000Open → - Research
Research Repository Structure
Indexes by finding rather than by study, since a study-organised archive is one nothing is ever found in again.

Triangulation Plan
Uses two methods that fail differently, which beats doing one method twice as carefully.
