What problem does it solve?
This Skill converts observations or preliminary evidence into structured, testable scientific hypotheses with clear mechanisms, competing explanations, predictions, and study designs so you can move from ideas to empirical validation.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Structured hypothesis formulation: Produces multiple competing hypotheses with explicit mechanisms, key supporting evidence, and core assumptions.
- Quality-focused rigor: Evaluates each hypothesis for testability, falsifiability, parsimony, explanatory power, scope, and consistency using provided criteria.
- Prediction and experiment design: Generates concrete, falsifiable predictions and maps them to experimental designs using standard experimental-pattern references.
- Publication-ready report generation: Outputs a LaTeX-based hypothesis report using the provided template and style package.
- Mandatory scientific schematics: Requires 1–2 AI-generated figures (via the scientific-schematics skill) to include visual frameworks alongside the written hypotheses.
Quick Start
Use the hypothesis-generation skill to draft a complete, structured hypothesis report from your dataset observations and include a schematic figure describing competing explanations.
