Scaffolds a structured investigation in scratch/ for empirical research and documentation. Use when the user says "start an investigation" or wants to: trace code paths or data flow ("trace from X to Y", "what touches X", "follow the wiring"), document system architecture comprehensively ("document how the system works", "archeology"), investigate bugs ("figure out why X happens"), explore technical feasibility ("can we do X?"), or explore design options ("explore the API", "gather context", "design alternatives"). Creates dated folder with README. NOT for simple code questions or single-file searches.
