What a research doc is
A research doc captures an open-ended technical or strategic question that doesn't yet have a concrete, committed design: findings, options considered, and a recommendation — lighter than a formal design doc, and not deleted once decided. It's the working record of why, kept even after the decision is folded into CONCEPT.md, docs/epics/, and ROADMAP.md.
Not every research doc needs to conclude with a definitive design — "not now" or "rejected" is a valid, useful outcome to record.
