add_research_column
Add a research/enrichment column to a content workflow. Inserted before the generation pipeline so its results feed content.
Add a research/enrichment column to a workflow — an extra context-gathering step. The new column is inserted before the generation pipeline (outline → text → review → media → publish) so its results feed content generation. Pending cells are scaffolded for every existing row. The content-production columns themselves come with the workflow and are not added here. Advanced per-column configuration (model, retrieval settings) stays UI-only. No LLM cost. Group-shared collaborators may add columns.
