Research additional candidates under a fresh approved scope.
Practical procedure
- Record the reviewed collection version and the new sources or candidates to examine.
- Create a new Research plan for the added evidence and review its source allowlist.
- Merge only supported additions while preserving duplicate and unresolved records.
Build an approved evidence path
GoCux Research works with Knowledge sources in the selected project. A plan separates the question and ordered steps from the source allowlist. Creating the plan records a draft; it does not approve or execute the work. Review the actual source selection before approving, because an empty allowlist permits no source and an execution request cannot expand an approved plan.
Contract example
Developer examples below describe routes on an authorized, configured GoCux control-plane base URL. They are request shapes or operation references, not claims that a particular public hostname exposes the API. Use the workspace for the corresponding human workflow; availability and permissions depend on the actual deployment.
POST /research-plans — example request body
{
"projectId": "project-id",
"title": "Review documented renewal conditions",
"question": "What renewal conditions are supported by these documents?",
"steps": [
"Find the renewal terms and their effective dates"
],
"allowedSourceIds": [
"source-id"
]
}Inspect the result
Read the saved plan before deciding. After approval and execution, retrieve its findings and inspect the cited source chunks. A finding supported by a quotation is different from a question for which no source was found. Keep that difference in the final report and in any downstream table.
What to keep explicit
Approved plan scope cannot be widened by an execution request. Collection expansion must preserve explicit review boundaries.
Handle incomplete and refused work
An unapproved plan cannot execute. A 409 can mean the state or expected version changed; reread before deciding again. A 503 means the research store is unavailable, not that research found no evidence. Access is scoped to the authenticated company; knowing an identifier does not grant another company access.
