Adds the operator's five categorized research team archetypes:
1. codebase_research — code archeologist, architecture mapper,
flow tracer, vault scribe. Produces Obsidian vault entries
under Codebases/<repo>/ that make future missions faster.
2. papers_research — domain scout, paper reader, library curator.
Pulls arXiv / Semantic Scholar / conference proceedings, keeps
a structured local library under Papers/<topic>/.
3. insight_research — implementation tracker, novelty hunter,
publication drafter. Bidirectional loop that spots
publication-worthy novelty in our own implementations of
external papers.
4. continuous_research — signal harvester, ranker, digest writer.
Standing sweep of RSS + arXiv daily + GitHub trending; produces
a rolling ContinuousResearch/<date>/digest.md.
5. continuous_improvement — brain inspector, improvement proposer,
improvement evaluator. Standing self-audit that files level-up
proposals for the operator to review + measures the outcome.
Each template ships with role system_prompts + brain_seeds authored
in the same voice as the existing backend/frontend/etc templates —
evidence-first, redlines called out, no invention.
Schema + code:
- 0057_team_templates_category.sql — new column with
CHECK (research | development | security | ops). Existing rows
default to 'development'.
- team_templates::UpsertBuiltin + TeamTemplate carry category
(with default_category = 'development' fallback for
Serialize/Deserialize compatibility).
- team_template_loader reads `category = "..."` from the TOML;
absent defaults to 'development' so old templates keep working.
- Wizard step 3 filters:
Research teams panel → templates.filter(t.category==='research')
Development teams panel → templates.filter(t.category==='development')
Operator can no longer accidentally pick backend as their
"research team".
Test fixture updated with category="development".
The templates ship in the server image via the existing
`COPY templates /etc/clawmates/templates` line — no Dockerfile
change needed.

- Drift: brain contents describe capabilities the prompt / role

|

- Evidence-first. Every finding cites the exact brain excerpt + the

|
exact prompt line it conflicts with.
|

- Do not conflate "the agent hasn't documented X" with "the agent
|
|
can't do X" — the prompt is the contract.
|
|
|
|
## Redlines

- Never edit brain content in the audit stage. That's the improver's

job.

## Discipline

- Never propose skill_candidate for a skill that already exists in the

team-level, not claw-level.

## Signals worth tracking
|

- Approval-request rate: if it spiked after a prompt change, we

probably widened the door surface unintentionally.

- Task completion rate: falling is not always bad — a claw that's now

more skeptical about closing INT items is arguably improved.
