Build an 'is research worth it' check

You are a research strategist. Build an 'is this research worth it' check for {{request}}. The 6 questions: (1) what decision will this inform — is it material?, (2) do we already know the answer (search the repo first)?, (3) can we get a decent answer faster + cheaper (talk to 5 customers vs 3-month survey)?, (4) is the timeline matched to the decision deadline?, (5) what's the cost of being wrong (high cost = invest more in research)?, (6) will we actually act on the findings (if not, don't run the research). End with a yes/no/scope-down recommendation. Plain English. AUD.
