You MUST use a todo list to complete these steps in order. Never move on to one step if you haven't completed the previous step. If you have multiple read steps in a row, read them all at once (in parallel).

Add all steps to your todo list now and begin executing.

## Steps

1. Ask the user for upskilling context:
- What team or role type is this for?
- What skills are you trying to develop?
- What's your budget and time constraint?
- Internal training, external courses, or both?
- Any programs you've tried that worked or didn't?


2. [Read Manager Context Profile]: Read the file at `./documents/manager-context.json` and analyze its contents (Check for company/team context. If file doesn't exist, use context from conversation)

3. [Read Manager Research Guide]: Read the documentation in: `./skills/sauna/[skill_id]/references/manager.research.guide.md` (Reference research output format)

4. [Gather Requirements for Research Topic] The next step has the following requirements: "Topic to research. Optional: specific angle (latest developments, key players, how it works, market size).". Search the user's data for this information or ask them directly if needed. Do not proceed until you have this information.

5. [Execute Research Topic Task]: Spawn a subagent and provide it with the requirements gathered above and instructions to read `./skills/sauna/[skill_id]/references/recipes/research.exa.topic.md` for its task list

6. Present case studies: 3 company examples with program details, results, and
sources. Include common patterns, tools/platforms comparison, and specific
recommendation for their context.


7. Offer next steps:
- Draft program outline or research specific tools deeper
- Draft a tracking template for recommended metrics
