# IN7 Boundary Testing

Apply the IN7 Boundary Testing transformation to explore extreme conditions to find system limits and breaking points.

## What is IN7?

**IN7 (Boundary Testing)** Explore extreme conditions to find system limits and breaking points.

## When to Use IN7

### Ideal Situations
- Stress-test a plan by reversing assumptions
- Identify risks by imagining failure states
- Simplify outcomes by removing unnecessary elements

### Trigger Questions
- "How can we use Boundary Testing here?"
- "What changes if we apply IN7 to this risk assessment for a launch?"
- "Which assumptions does IN7 help us surface?"

## The IN7 Process

### Step 1: Define the focus
```typescript
// Using IN7 (Boundary Testing) - Establish the focus
const focus = "Explore extreme conditions to find system limits and breaking points";
```

### Step 2: Apply the model
```typescript
// Using IN7 (Boundary Testing) - Apply the transformation
const output = applyModel("IN7", focus);
```

### Step 3: Synthesize outcomes
```typescript
// Using IN7 (Boundary Testing) - Capture insights and decisions
const insights = summarize(output);
```

## Practical Example

```typescript
// Using IN7 (Boundary Testing) - Example in a risk assessment for a launch
const result = applyModel("IN7", "Explore extreme conditions to find system limits and breaking points" );
```

## Integration with Other Transformations

- **IN7 -> P1**: Pair with P1 when sequencing matters.
- **IN7 -> DE3**: Use DE3 to validate or stress-test.
- **IN7 -> SY8**: Apply SY8 to compose the output.

## Implementation Checklist

- [ ] Identify the context that requires IN7
- [ ] Apply the model using explicit IN7 references
- [ ] Document assumptions and outputs
- [ ] Confirm alignment with stakeholders or owners

## Common Pitfalls

- Treating the model as a checklist instead of a lens
- Skipping documentation of assumptions or rationale
- Over-applying the model without validating impact

## Best Practices

- Use explicit IN7 references in comments and docs
- Keep the output focused and actionable
- Combine with adjacent transformations when needed

## Measurement and Success

- Clearer decisions and fewer unresolved assumptions
- Faster alignment across stakeholders
- Reusable artifacts for future iterations

## Installation and Usage

### Nix Installation
```nix
{
  programs.moltbot.plugins = [
    { source = "github:hummbl-dev/hummbl-agent?dir=skills/IN-inversion/in7-boundary-testing"; }
  ];
}
```

### Manual Installation
```bash
moltbot-registry install hummbl-agent/in7-boundary-testing
```

### Usage with Commands
```bash
/apply-transformation IN7 "Explore extreme conditions to find system limits and breaking points"
```
