Domain Research Step 5: Technical Trends

MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):

🛑 NEVER generate content without web search verification
📖 CRITICAL: ALWAYS read the complete step file before taking any action - partial understanding leads to incomplete decisions
🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure the entire file is read and understood before proceeding
✅ Search the web to verify and supplement your knowledge with current facts
📋 YOU ARE A TECHNOLOGY ANALYST, not content generator
💬 FOCUS on emerging technologies and innovation patterns
🔍 WEB SEARCH REQUIRED - verify current facts against live sources
📝 WRITE CONTENT IMMEDIATELY TO DOCUMENT
✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT In your Agent communication style with the config {communication_language}

EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:

🎯 Show web search analysis before presenting findings
⚠️ Present [C] continue option after technical trends content generation
📝 WRITE TECHNICAL TRENDS ANALYSIS TO DOCUMENT IMMEDIATELY
💾 ONLY proceed when user chooses C (Continue)
📖 Update frontmatter stepsCompleted: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] before loading next step
🚫 FORBIDDEN to load next step until C is selected

CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:

Current document and frontmatter from previous steps are available
Research topic = "{{research_topic}}" - established from initial discussion
Research goals = "{{research_goals}}" - established from initial discussion
Focus on emerging technologies and innovation patterns in the domain
Web search capabilities with source verification are enabled

YOUR TASK:

Conduct comprehensive technical trends analysis using current web data with emphasis on innovations and emerging technologies impacting {{research_topic}}.

TECHNICAL TRENDS SEQUENCE:

1. Begin Technical Trends Analysis

Start with technology research approach: "Now I'll conduct technical trends and emerging technologies analysis for {{research_topic}} using current data.

Technical Trends Focus:

Emerging technologies and innovations
Digital transformation impacts
Automation and efficiency improvements
New business models enabled by technology
Future technology projections and roadmaps

Let me search for current technology developments."

2. Web Search for Emerging Technologies

Search for current technology information: Search the web: "{{research_topic}} emerging technologies innovations"

Technology focus:

AI, machine learning, and automation impacts
Digital transformation trends
New technologies disrupting the industry
Innovation patterns and breakthrough developments

3. Web Search for Digital Transformation

Search for current transformation trends: Search the web: "{{research_topic}} digital transformation trends"

Transformation focus:

Digital adoption trends and rates
Business model evolution
Customer experience innovations
Operational efficiency improvements

4. Web Search for Future Outlook

Search for future projections: Search the web: "{{research_topic}} future outlook trends"

Future focus:

Technology roadmaps and projections
Market evolution predictions
Innovation pipelines and R&D trends
Long-term industry transformation

5. Generate Technical Trends Content

WRITE IMMEDIATELY TO DOCUMENT

Prepare technical analysis with source citations:

Content Structure:

When saving to document, append these Level 2 and Level 3 sections:

## Technical Trends and Innovation

### Emerging Technologies

[Emerging technologies analysis with source citations]
_Source: [URL]_

### Digital Transformation

[Digital transformation analysis with source citations]
_Source: [URL]_

### Innovation Patterns

[Innovation patterns analysis with source citations]
_Source: [URL]_

### Future Outlook

[Future outlook and projections with source citations]
_Source: [URL]_

### Implementation Opportunities

[Implementation opportunity analysis with source citations]
_Source: [URL]_

### Challenges and Risks

[Challenges and risks assessment with source citations]
_Source: [URL]_

## Recommendations

### Technology Adoption Strategy

[Technology adoption recommendations]

### Innovation Roadmap

[Innovation roadmap suggestions]

### Risk Mitigation

[Risk mitigation strategies]

6. Present Analysis and Complete Option

Show the generated technical analysis and present complete option: "I've completed technical trends and innovation analysis for {{research_topic}}.

Technical Highlights:

Emerging technologies and innovations identified
Digital transformation trends mapped
Future outlook and projections analyzed
Implementation opportunities and challenges documented
Practical recommendations provided

Technical Trends Research Completed:

Emerging technologies and innovations identified
Digital transformation trends mapped
Future outlook and projections analyzed
Implementation opportunities and challenges documented

Ready to proceed to research synthesis and recommendations? [C] Continue - Save this to document and proceed to synthesis

7. Handle Continue Selection

If 'C' (Continue):

CONTENT ALREADY WRITTEN TO DOCUMENT
Update frontmatter: stepsCompleted: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Load: ./step-06-research-synthesis.md

APPEND TO DOCUMENT:

Content is already written to document when generated in step 5. No additional append needed.

SUCCESS METRICS:

✅ Emerging technologies identified with current data ✅ Digital transformation trends clearly documented ✅ Future outlook and projections analyzed ✅ Implementation opportunities and challenges mapped ✅ Strategic recommendations provided ✅ Content written immediately to document ✅ [C] continue option presented and handled correctly ✅ Proper routing to next step (research synthesis) ✅ Research goals alignment maintained

FAILURE MODES:

❌ Relying solely on training data without web verification for current facts ❌ Missing critical emerging technologies in the domain ❌ Not providing practical implementation recommendations ❌ Not completing strategic recommendations ❌ Not presenting completion option for research workflow ❌ Appending content without user selecting 'C'

❌ CRITICAL: Reading only partial step file - leads to incomplete understanding and poor decisions ❌ CRITICAL: Proceeding with 'C' without fully reading and understanding the next step file ❌ CRITICAL: Making decisions without complete understanding of step requirements and protocols

TECHNICAL RESEARCH PROTOCOLS:

Search for cutting-edge technologies and innovations
Identify disruption patterns and game-changers
Research technology adoption timelines and barriers
Consider regional technology variations
Analyze competitive technological advantages

RESEARCH WORKFLOW COMPLETION:

When 'C' is selected:

All domain research steps completed
Comprehensive research document generated
All sections appended with source citations
Research workflow status updated
Final recommendations provided to user

NEXT STEPS:

Research workflow complete. User may:

Use the domain research to inform other workflows (PRD, architecture, etc.)
Conduct additional research on specific topics if needed
Move forward with product development based on research insights

Congratulations on completing comprehensive domain research! 🎉
