Research

Methodological rigor scoring for papers — evaluates bias risk, reproducibility, sample adequacy using established frameworks. Used by systematic-survey.

Methodological quality and bias risk assessment of included studies using validated tools

Plan funnel plots, Egger's test, trim-and-fill, p-curve, and selection model analyses for publication bias

PO + Movement: generate provocations then extract useful directions (4 movement types)

Analyze evaluation protocol differences across papers for same benchmark — 5 benchmarks, 60 papers, 30 web searches

Extract evaluation protocol parameters from papers

Strategy: Klein pre-mortem — assume the artifact has failed, then retrospect plausible causes. Generates rapid failure scenario catalog.

Propose concrete mitigation strategies for severe obstacles. MUST use search tools to validate that proposed mitigations are realistic — no armchair theorizing. Each mitigation must have evidence of feasibility.

Track performance progress over time, quantify remaining headroom — 30 methods, 100 data points, 40 web searches budget

Construct performance-over-time visualization data

Build performance-over-time progress curves with inflection detection

Strategy: Research execution process FMEA — analyzes how the research process itself can fail during execution, distinct from design-level failures.

Problem Reformulation Campaign — question the problem itself. Escape dominant ideas, reframe from multiple perspectives, apply dialectical inquiry, assess wickedness, discover appreciative alternatives. 5 strategies, 3 tactics, 10 subagent SOPs.

Restate technical problem as biological question. Translate engineering challenges into nature's language.

Execute a single attack probe against an artifact, record the result with evidence and severity classification.

Multi-stage PRISMA screening tactic — progressively filter papers from a large candidate pool to a focused set for deep reading. Four stages (identification, title/abstract screening, full-text screening, inclusion) with documented counts at each stage.

Generate PRISMA-compliant flow data documenting the screening funnel — counts at each stage (identification, screening, eligibility, inclusion) with exclusion reasons. Used by systematic-survey via prisma-screening tactic.

SOP: 综合所有评分数据产出最终 gap 优先级列表及攻击路径建议

Tactic: 扰动评分权重，检验 gap 排序对权重选择的稳健性

Multi-dimensional gap scoring and ranking — define criteria, score, weight, rank, sensitivity-check. Combines multi-criteria-scoring, stakeholder-confirmation, and feasibility assessment.

Evaluate novelty of specific invention — find relevant prior art across patents, publications, and products. Budget: 80 patent families, 20 claim parses, 50 web searches.

Analyze sub-directions within the user's chosen field and present ranked candidates. Combines sub-direction identification, skill-gap matching, and presentation into a single SOP. Depth scales by start mode: cold-start shows broad sub-directions, warm-start shows specific sub-problems, hot-start shows granular technical details.

Present the field panorama to the user and gather their preferences — which fields interest them, which they reject, and why. A dialogue SOP that bridges landscape-synthesis output to user decision.

Identify obstacles blocking direct achievement and design intermediate objectives to overcome each
