# /factory:study

Analyze the current codebase and generate an observation report.

## Prerequisites

```bash
command -v factory >/dev/null 2>&1 || uv tool install remote-factory
```

## Execution

```bash
factory study "$(pwd)"
```

This produces a report at `.factory/strategy/observations.md` covering:

- **Eval scores** — current composite and per-dimension breakdown
- **Open issues** — from GitHub, if available
- **Backlog items** — pending work from `.factory/strategy/backlog.md`
- **Observability coverage** — logging density and uninstrumented files
- **Hypothesis budget** — how many improvements to target this cycle
- **Cross-project insights** — patterns from sibling projects (if any)

After studying, use `/factory:implement` to act on the findings.
