Learn

This is a structured research workflow that takes you from scattered sources to a publish-ready article through six phases: collect primary sources, digest them into a mental model, outline with citations, fill in sections, refine for clarity, and self-review. It integrates with the read skill for fetching and write for AI-pattern stripping, but degrades gracefully if either is missing. Choose between deep research, quick reference, write-to-learn, or canonical article modes depending on your goal. The stall signals in phase four are genuinely useful: if you've rewritten an opening three times or can't explain a claim out loud, your mental model isn't ready yet. This isn't for quick lookups. It's for when you need to actually understand something well enough to teach it.
