research
send Folk off to dig into something properly and come back with a ranked, reasoned answer.
sometimes you don't want a quick answer. you want Folk to go dig.
that's what /research is for. Folk spends real time (think minutes, not
seconds) looking into something properly - multiple sources, cross-checked -
then comes back with a ranked, reasoned answer instead of a guess.

what you get back
a ranked shortlist with the reasoning attached: the top options, why each one made the cut, and the details that matter - hours, prices, trade-offs. ask follow-ups and Folk digs further without starting over.
you get the answer in chat - there's no separate report page to go hunt down.
research vs a quick lookup
for something fast and simple, just ask Folk normally: "what's a good sushi
place open right now near me?" skip /research for that. save it for when you
want the deep, ranked version - purchases you'll live with, places you'll
commit an evening to, decisions with real trade-offs.
it browses like you do
when public search results aren't enough, Folk can open its own browser and check the actual sites - menus, availability, reviews - before it makes a call.
