Milestone v0.1-prototype COMPLETE and APPROVED. Checkpoint cleared
per the run workflow: the next /ci-run starts milestone v0.2-mvp
at phase 0 (pre-execution: specify, clarify, research, plan),
which config.json now points at (tag line v0.2.x).
requirements:
covered: [REQ-52, REQ-53, REQ-54, REQ-55, REQ-56, REQ-57, REQ-58, REQ-59, REQ-60, REQ-61, REQ-62, REQ-63, REQ-64, REQ-65, REQ-66, REQ-67, REQ-68]

Milestone branch deleted (local + remote); tags v0.1.0-v0.1.8 and the
main merge (d6ddcfe) preserve the full history. v0.2-mvp unblocked.
ResearchX
A deep-research studio where you bring your own model, storage, and memory; choose a research methodology before a single query fires; and every claim in the final report is anchored to a visited, verified, quotable source.
Status: prototype (milestone v0.1) — UI/UX with mock data. No backend, no API keys, no network calls.
Quickstart
cd frontend
pnpm install
pnpm dev
Open http://localhost:3000 — you land on Ask, inside the app shell (left sidebar, top bar with ⌘K search and your avatar). Type a question, click Research this, pick a methodology on Choose (Deep Report is the recommended default), and press Start research.
Three clicks from cold start to initiated research.
What's in the prototype
| Screen | What it does |
|---|---|
/ask |
One question box + one optional context box — plus two opt-in helpers below and beside them: open-question suggestions (follow-ups from your past runs, one click fills the box) and the Refine question dialogue (a few clarifying answers → a composed, sharper question). Neither ever auto-starts. |
/choose |
All 8 locked methodology cards — mock ETA, cost estimate, why-recommended, and the 12 methodology dials behind each card's Advanced drawer. |
/run/[id] |
Plan & Run: approve the research plan (sub-questions, source universe, outline), watch the live trace stream, pause/resume or cancel. |
/run/[id]/report |
Reading Room: the report with page-anchored citations — hover or focus any [n] marker for the exact quoted passage — plus the citation ledger and Markdown/JSON exports. |
/library |
Stored reports filed into auto-categorized folders (sortable, links into the Reading Room), the Connections panel (shared sources ⇄, related topics →), plus v2-preview project graph and task inbox. |
/settings |
API-key status (masked, never raw), the reports storage directory, methodology defaults with the resolved 12 dials, appearance, and about/version. |
The persistent shell (every screen): sidebar nav + adapter connection-status dots, top bar with the ⌘K navigation palette (screens + stored reports) and the avatar menu (local profile, Settings, About).
All data flows through a typed ApiClient interface backed by MockApiClient — the same components will talk to the FastAPI backend via the OpenAPI-generated client in the MVP milestone, with zero rewrites.
