SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Orchestrates an end-to-end idea discovery workflow to move from broad research directions to validated, pilot-tested proposals by chaining literature survey, idea creation, novelty checks, and critical reviews.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • End-to-end idea discovery pipeline: literature mapping, idea generation, novelty assessment, and refinement.
  • Produces a ranked IDEA_REPORT.md with actionable next steps and a refined proposal.
  • Supports compact mode and workflow 2 integration for iterative improvement.

Quick Start

Provide a topic or direction and trigger the full idea discovery pipeline to generate, rank, and validate ideas.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate literature survey and idea generation for research planning?

An end-to-end idea discovery pipeline orchestrates literature mapping, idea generation, and novelty assessment to produce a ranked IDEA_REPORT.md with actionable next steps. By chaining these stages, it systematically moves from broad research directions to validated, pilot-tested proposals.

What is the best way to check research novelty before writing a proposal?

Checking research novelty within this pipeline involves running a novelty verification process against mapped literature to ensure originality. It integrates critical reviews and novelty assessments directly into the idea generation workflow to validate concepts before drafting proposals.

Can I iteratively refine research ideas from a broad topic into a concrete proposal?

Iterative idea refinement is supported through compact mode and workflow integration, allowing progressive narrowing from broad topics to concrete proposals. The pipeline generates refine-logs to document improvements and critical reviews throughout the research planning stages.

Does the idea discovery workflow produce documented outputs for pilot testing?

The idea discovery workflow produces a ranked IDEA_REPORT.md and refine-logs to provide documented outputs suitable for pilot testing. These files contain actionable next steps and refined proposals, ensuring complex research planning scenarios yield fully documented results.

What are the limitations of automating a research pipeline across multiple domains?

Automating a research pipeline across multiple domains relies on initial topic inputs and the depth of the literature survey. While it satisfies end-to-end workflow orchestration, the novelty checks and pilot testing stages may require manual critical review to ensure domain-specific validity.
