Research & Documentation Skill Evaluations

Evaluation scenarios for testing the Research & Documentation skill across different Claude models.

Purpose

These evaluations ensure the Research & Documentation skill:

• Searches across Notion workspace effectively
• Synthesizes information from multiple sources
• Selects appropriate research report format
• Creates comprehensive documentation with proper citations
• Works consistently across Haiku, Sonnet, and Opus

Evaluation Files

basic-research.json

Tests basic research workflow with synthesis across multiple Notion pages.

Scenario: Research Q4 product roadmap and create summary
Key Behaviors:

• Searches Notion for roadmap-related pages
• Fetches multiple relevant pages (roadmap, product docs, meeting notes)
• Synthesizes information from different sources
• Selects appropriate format (Research Summary)
• Includes citations linking back to source pages
• Creates structured document with clear sections

research-to-database.json

Tests creating research documentation in a Notion database with properties.

Scenario: Research competitor landscape and save to Research database
Key Behaviors:

• Searches for existing competitive intelligence in Notion
• Identifies Research database as target
• Fetches database schema to understand properties
• Creates page with correct property values (Research Type, Status, Date, etc.)
• Structures content with comparison format
• Includes source citations for both Notion pages and external research

Running Evaluations

1. Enable the research-documentation skill
2. Submit the query from the evaluation file
3. Verify the skill searches Notion workspace comprehensively
4. Check that multiple source pages are fetched and synthesized
5. Verify appropriate format is selected (Research Summary, Comprehensive Report, Quick Brief, Comparison)
6. Confirm citations link back to sources
7. Test with Haiku, Sonnet, and Opus

Expected Skill Behaviors

Research & Documentation evaluations should verify:

Notion Search & Synthesis

• Searches workspace with relevant queries
• Fetches multiple source pages (3-5+)
• Synthesizes information across sources
• Identifies patterns and insights
• Handles conflicting information appropriately

Format Selection

• Chooses correct format based on scope and depth:
  • Research Summary: Quick overview with key findings
  • Comprehensive Report: Deep analysis with multiple sections
  • Quick Brief: Fast facts and takeaways
  • Comparison: Side-by-side analysis
• Applies format structure consistently
• Uses appropriate sections and headings

Citation & Attribution

• Includes citations for all Notion sources
• Uses mention-page tags: <mention-page url="...">
• Attributes findings to specific sources
• Distinguishes between Notion content and Claude research
• Links related documents

Document Quality

• Title clearly indicates research topic and date
• Executive summary or key findings upfront
• Organized with clear hierarchy
• Actionable insights and recommendations
• Appropriate depth for the query

Creating New Evaluations

When adding Research & Documentation evaluations:

1. Test different research types - Product research, competitive analysis, technical investigation, market research
2. Vary source count - Synthesis of 2-3 pages vs. 10+ pages
3. Test format selection - Does it choose the right format for the scope?
4. Include database targets - Not just standalone pages
5. Test citation accuracy - Are all sources properly attributed?
6. Cross-workspace search - Testing search across teamspaces if applicable

Example Success Criteria

Good (specific, testable):

• "Searches Notion for 'roadmap' and 'Q4' and 'product'"
• "Fetches at least 3 different source pages"
• "Includes citation for each key finding using mention-page tags"
• "Creates page with title format 'Research: [Topic] - [Date]'"
• "Uses Research Summary format with sections: Executive Summary → Key Findings → Details → Recommendations → Sources"

Bad (vague, untestable):

• "Searches Notion effectively"
• "Creates comprehensive research"
• "Uses sources appropriately"
• "Good documentation"
