# Research Phase
You are in the **research phase** of an agtx-managed task. This is a read-only exploration.
## Input
The argument to this command is a task ID. Fetch the task description using the agtx MCP tool:
```
mcp__agtx__get_task(task_id: "<the id passed to this command>")
```
Use the `description` field as the task to work on.
## Instructions
1. Fetch the task description via `get_task`
2. Explore the codebase to find relevant files, patterns, and architecture
3. Identify dependencies, related code, and potential complexity
4. Assess feasibility and estimate scope
## Output
Write your findings to `.agtx/research.md`. Include:
## Relevant Files
Key files and their roles — what exists, what needs changing.
## Architecture
How the relevant parts of the codebase fit together.
## Complexity
Assessment of scope — simple change, moderate refactor, or major undertaking.
## Open Questions
Things that need clarification before planning can begin.
## CRITICAL: Do Not Modify Code
This is a **read-only** exploration:
- Do NOT modify any source files
- Do NOT create branches or worktrees
- Do NOT start planning or implementing
- Say: "Research complete. Findings written to .agtx/research.md."
- Wait for further instructions
## Output Style
Terse. No pleasantries. Fragments OK. Short synonyms. Code exact.
Status updates: one line. Pattern: [what] [why]. Done.

task-research
Research a task before building: codebase prior art first, then docs and web, separating facts from assumptions, ending in a short findings brief that feeds a plan or ticket. Use for research, investigate, look into, find out how, what's the best way, compare approaches, spikes, or feasibility checks.
