## Synthesis Output

### Executive Summary (1 paragraph)
The core answer to [RESEARCH_TOPIC] in plain language, drawing from all sources.

### Key Findings by Theme
Organize the main insights by theme, not by source. Show where sources agree, where they differ, and which claims are supported by multiple sources vs. a single one.

### Contradictions and Tensions
Identify any claims that sources contradict each other on. Offer a possible explanation for why they differ.

### Strongest Conclusions
List the five claims that are most strongly supported across the sources. These are the 'safe to trust' findings.

### Areas of Uncertainty
What does the evidence not yet resolve? What would a researcher need to read next?

### Questions This Synthesis Raises
Three new questions that emerge from reading these sources together that were not apparent from any single document.
