SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Create isolated hypothesis branches to explore alternative approaches in parallel without polluting the main research state.

Core Features & Use Cases

Create a dedicated hypothesis branch from the current research line to test an alternative.
Fork and maintain a separate STATE.md and HYPOTHESIS.md for side-by-side comparison and auditability.
Link results back to the main branch and enable comparison via gpd-compare-branches.

Quick Start

Create a hypothesis branch from the current branch and initialize the hypothesis workspace.

FAQPage Schema

How do I test alternative hypotheses in parallel without losing my main research state?▼

To test alternative hypotheses in parallel, you can spawn dedicated hypothesis branches that fork your STATE.md file, keeping the main research line isolated and clean while exploring different derivations side-by-side.

What is the best way to compare outcomes from multiple parallel research branches?▼

Comparing outcomes from parallel research branches requires tracking branch metadata and initializing a separate HYPOTHESIS.md for each fork, enabling side-by-side evaluation and auditability via branch comparison tooling.

How do I fork STATE.md to create an isolated investigation branch?▼

Forking STATE.md to create an isolated investigation branch involves using GPD tooling to spawn a parallel hypothesis branch and automatically initialize the HYPOTHESIS.md workspace for that alternative derivation.

Can I explore multiple algorithms simultaneously without polluting my main research branch?▼

Yes, you can explore multiple algorithms simultaneously without polluting the main research branch by creating parallel investigation branches that maintain separate state files for each alternative approach.

Do I need GPD tooling to track branch metadata for later evaluation?▼

Yes, GPD tooling is required to fork the state file, initialize the hypothesis workspace, and track branch metadata systematically for later evaluation and comparison of your alternative derivations.

When should I use parallel hypothesis branches for research automation?▼

You should use parallel hypothesis branches when you want to test two or more derivations or algorithms simultaneously, requiring isolated state tracking to compare outcomes without risking your primary research line.
