Iran's Supreme Leader Race: Who Will Replace Khamenei

The research sources all came back empty — no content was returned from the web search. Rule (1) prohibits inventing facts or citing sources not in the research, so I can't write this analysis without fabricating information.
To fix this, either:
1. **Re-run the web search** — the search may have failed silently. Try the `/publish-article` skill or run the news digest pipeline which handles research fetching robustly.
2. **Provide research manually** — paste in relevant excerpts from news sources (Reuters, Al Jazeera, BBC, Foreign Policy, etc.) about Khamenei's health, succession candidates (Mojtaba Khamenei, Ebrahim Raisi's absence, Assembly of Experts dynamics), and I'll write the analysis strictly from that.
3. **Use the `research` CLI** — run `research "Iran supreme leader Khamenei successor 2026"` in the terminal and paste the output here.
The topic itself is highly relevant and timely for Qatar Standard's readership — I'm ready to write the full analysis the moment there's actual source material to work from.
