+# Domain Research Step 4: Regulatory Focus
+
+## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
+
+- 🛑 NEVER generate content without web search verification
+
+- 📖 CRITICAL: ALWAYS read the complete step file before taking any action - partial understanding leads to incomplete decisions
+- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure the entire file is read and understood before proceeding
+- ✅ Search the web to verify and supplement your knowledge with current facts
+- 📋 YOU ARE A REGULATORY ANALYST, not content generator
+- 💬 FOCUS on compliance requirements and regulatory landscape
+- 🔍 WEB SEARCH REQUIRED - verify current facts against live sources
+- 📝 WRITE CONTENT IMMEDIATELY TO DOCUMENT
+- ✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT In your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
+
+## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
+
+- 🎯 Show web search analysis before presenting findings
+- ⚠️ Present [C] continue option after regulatory content generation
+- 📝 WRITE REGULATORY ANALYSIS TO DOCUMENT IMMEDIATELY
+- 💾 ONLY save when user chooses C (Continue)
+- 📖 Update frontmatter `stepsCompleted: [1, 2, 3, 4]` before loading next step
+- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to load next step until C is selected
+
+## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
+
+- Current document and frontmatter from previous steps are available
+- **Research topic = "{{research_topic}}"** - established from initial discussion
+- **Research goals = "{{research_goals}}"** - established from initial discussion
+- Focus on regulatory and compliance requirements for the domain
+- Web search capabilities with source verification are enabled
+
+## YOUR TASK:
+
+Conduct focused regulatory and compliance analysis with emphasis on requirements that impact {{research_topic}}. Search the web to verify and supplement current facts.
+
+## REGULATORY FOCUS SEQUENCE:
+
+### 1. Begin Regulatory Analysis
+
+Start with regulatory research approach:
+"Now I'll focus on **regulatory and compliance requirements** that impact **{{research_topic}}**.
+
+**Regulatory Focus Areas:**
+
+- Specific regulations and compliance frameworks
+- Industry standards and best practices
+- Licensing and certification requirements
+- Data protection and privacy regulations
+- Environmental and safety requirements
+
+**Let me search for current regulatory requirements.**"
+
+### 2. Web Search for Specific Regulations
+
+Search for current regulatory information:
+Search the web: "{{research_topic}} regulations compliance requirements"
+
+**Regulatory focus:**
+
+- Specific regulations applicable to the domain
+- Compliance frameworks and standards
+- Recent regulatory changes or updates
+- Enforcement agencies and oversight bodies
+
+### 3. Web Search for Industry Standards
+
+Search for current industry standards:
+Search the web: "{{research_topic}} standards best practices"
+
+**Standards focus:**
+
+- Industry-specific technical standards
+- Best practices and guidelines
+- Certification requirements
+- Quality assurance frameworks
+
+### 4. Web Search for Data Privacy Requirements
+
+Search for current privacy regulations:
+Search the web: "data privacy regulations {{research_topic}}"
+
+**Privacy focus:**
+
+- GDPR, CCPA, and other data protection laws
+- Industry-specific privacy requirements
+- Data governance and security standards
+- User consent and data handling requirements
+
+### 5. Generate Regulatory Analysis Content
+
+Prepare regulatory content with source citations:
+
+#### Content Structure:
+
+When saving to document, append these Level 2 and Level 3 sections:
+
+```markdown
+## Regulatory Requirements
+
+### Applicable Regulations
+
+[Specific regulations analysis with source citations]
+_Source: [URL]_
+
+### Industry Standards and Best Practices
+
+[Industry standards analysis with source citations]
+_Source: [URL]_
+
+### Compliance Frameworks
+
+[Compliance frameworks analysis with source citations]
+_Source: [URL]_
+
+### Data Protection and Privacy
+
+[Privacy requirements analysis with source citations]
+_Source: [URL]_
+
+### Licensing and Certification
+
+[Licensing requirements analysis with source citations]
+_Source: [URL]_
+
+### Implementation Considerations
+
+[Practical implementation considerations with source citations]
+_Source: [URL]_
+
+### Risk Assessment
+
+[Regulatory and compliance risk assessment]
+```
+
+### 6. Present Analysis and Continue Option
+
+Show the generated regulatory analysis and present continue option:
+"I've completed **regulatory requirements analysis** for {{research_topic}}.
+
+**Key Regulatory Findings:**
+
+- Specific regulations and frameworks identified
+- Industry standards and best practices mapped
+- Compliance requirements clearly documented
+- Implementation considerations provided
+- Risk assessment completed
+
+**Ready to proceed to technical trends?**
+[C] Continue - Save this to the document and move to technical trends
+
+### 7. Handle Continue Selection
+
+#### If 'C' (Continue):
+
+- **CONTENT ALREADY WRITTEN TO DOCUMENT**
+- Update frontmatter: `stepsCompleted: [1, 2, 3, 4]`
+- Load: `./step-05-technical-trends.md`
+
+## APPEND TO DOCUMENT:
+
+Content is already written to document when generated in step 5. No additional append needed.
+
+## SUCCESS METRICS:
+
+✅ Applicable regulations identified with current citations
+✅ Industry standards and best practices documented
+✅ Compliance frameworks clearly mapped
+✅ Data protection requirements analyzed
+✅ Implementation considerations provided
+✅ [C] continue option presented and handled correctly
+✅ Content properly appended to document when C selected
+
+## FAILURE MODES:
+
+❌ Relying on training data instead of web search for current facts
+❌ Missing critical regulatory requirements for the domain
+❌ Not providing implementation considerations for compliance
+❌ Not completing risk assessment for regulatory compliance
+❌ Not presenting [C] continue option after content generation
+❌ Appending content without user selecting 'C'
+
+❌ **CRITICAL**: Reading only partial step file - leads to incomplete understanding and poor decisions
+❌ **CRITICAL**: Proceeding with 'C' without fully reading and understanding the next step file
+❌ **CRITICAL**: Making decisions without complete understanding of step requirements and protocols
+
+## REGULATORY RESEARCH PROTOCOLS:
+
+- Search for specific regulations by name and number
+- Identify regulatory bodies and enforcement agencies
+- Research recent regulatory changes and updates
+- Map industry standards to regulatory requirements
+- Consider regional and jurisdictional differences
+
+## SOURCE VERIFICATION:
+
+- Always cite regulatory agency websites
+- Use official government and industry association sources
+- Note effective dates and implementation timelines
+- Present compliance requirement levels and obligations
+
+## NEXT STEP:
+
+After user selects 'C' and content is saved to document, load `./step-05-technical-trends.md` to analyze technical trends and innovations in the domain.
+
+Remember: Search the web to verify regulatory facts and provide practical implementation considerations!
