SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps transform a broad research direction into validated, pilot-tested ideas with evidence-backed novelty and a concrete experiment plan.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • End-to-End Idea Discovery Pipeline: Orchestrates research-lit → idea-creator → novelty-check → research-review → research-refine-pipeline to go from direction to ranked ideas.
  • Checkpointed Guidance with Optional Auto-Proceed: Presents outputs at major phases and can continue automatically when the user does not respond.
  • Pilot-Backed Selection and Budget Guardrails: Runs limited parallel pilots under configurable time/GPU constraints, then eliminates already-published or non-novel ideas.
  • Outputs for Implementation: Produces idea-stage/IDEA_REPORT.md plus refined proposal artifacts (refine-logs/FINAL_PROPOSAL.md and refine-logs/EXPERIMENT_PLAN.md) for the best idea.

Quick Start

Run the idea discovery pipeline for your topic by executing: /idea-discovery "your research direction"

Frequently Asked Questions about idea-discovery

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate research ideas and check novelty for a broad research direction?

To validate research ideas and check novelty, you can run an end-to-end discovery pipeline that performs literature surveys, generates ideas, verifies novelty against existing publications, and conducts critical peer reviews. This produces ranked, pilot-tested ideas.

How do I generate an experiment plan from a literature survey automatically?

Generating an experiment plan from a literature survey involves orchestrating a multi-agent workflow that processes the survey, proposes ideas, refines methods iteratively, and outputs a concrete experiment plan. The pipeline produces refined proposal artifacts for implementation.

What is an end-to-end idea discovery pipeline for research planning?

An end-to-end idea discovery pipeline for research planning is an automated workflow that transforms a broad research direction into validated ideas. It integrates literature surveys, novelty verification, critical reviews, and method refinement across iterative checkpoints.

Can I run pilot studies with budget and time constraints during idea generation?

Yes, you can run pilot studies with budget and time constraints during idea generation. The pipeline supports configurable pilot budgets and GPU timeouts, running limited parallel pilots under controlled guardrails to eliminate non-novel ideas.

Does the idea discovery workflow require continuous user input to proceed?

No, the idea discovery workflow does not require continuous user input. It features checkpointed guidance with optional auto-proceed, presenting outputs at major phases and continuing automatically when the user does not respond.

What outputs do I get from an automated research idea discovery pipeline?

The outputs from an automated research idea discovery pipeline include an idea-stage report, a finalized proposal, and a concrete experiment plan. These artifacts are generated for the best validated idea to facilitate direct implementation.
