SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Mapping a domain to surface implicit ontologies and load-bearing assumptions, enabling clearer analysis and planning.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Map a domain's concept lattice and distinguish observed concepts from inferred ones.
  • Identify competing framings and surface anchor sources for nodes.
  • Produce an epistemic terrain map to seed downstream formalization, documentation, or modeling.

Quick Start

Draft an initial terrain map for a new domain by listing core concepts and framing.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I map the concept lattice of an unfamiliar domain?▼

To map a concept lattice, list the domain's core concepts and framings to draft an initial terrain map. This process surfaces implicit ontologies and load-bearing assumptions by distinguishing observed concepts from inferred ones.

What is an epistemic terrain map used for in domain analysis?▼

An epistemic terrain map is used to seed downstream formalization, documentation, or modeling. It reveals hidden domain concepts, competing framings, and anchor sources to enable clearer analysis and planning.

How do I identify competing framings and implicit ontologies in a research domain?▼

Identify competing framings and implicit ontologies by mapping the domain's concept lattice. This surfaces hidden assumptions and requires anchor citations to validate the identified conceptual nodes.

Can I distinguish observed concepts from inferred ones when mapping domain knowledge?▼

Yes, epistemic mapping explicitly distinguishes observed concepts from inferred ones. It flags provisional nodes as a constraint when confidence in an inferred concept falls below 80%.

What's the best way to document load-bearing assumptions in a new field?▼

Document load-bearing assumptions by drafting an epistemic terrain map. Start by listing core concepts, applying anchor citations to nodes, and flagging any provisional concepts with confidence below 80%.

Do I need anchor citations to map an epistemic terrain map?▼

Yes, anchor citations are required for nodes when mapping an epistemic terrain map. This ensures that observed and inferred concepts within the domain's implicit ontologies are properly sourced.
