SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It solves the problem of turning an open-ended research effort into a structured, auditable workflow that produces evidence rather than guesses.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Persistent evidence loop in kb/: Maintains durable artifacts across long runs, linking hypotheses to experiments and experiments to findings.
  • Hypothesis-driven research workflow (H -> E -> F): Breaks the mission into research questions, designs experiments, challenges assumptions, and iterates until success criteria are met or approaches are exhausted.
  • Escalation with traceable reasoning: If the agent gets blocked, it asks you instead of guessing, while keeping a full trail of decisions and outputs for review.

Quick Start

Tell your AI to set up a new Limina project in a folder named limina-research and initialize the mission brief using your objective, context/baseline, success criteria, resources/boundaries, and blocked stop condition.

FAQPage Schema
How do I structure an autonomous research project to produce evidence-backed findings?

To structure autonomous research, you need a persistent knowledge base that maintains an evidence flow linking hypotheses to experiments and findings. This converts an open-ended problem into an auditable workflow that iterates until success criteria are met.

What is a hypothesis-driven research workflow and how does it work?

A hypothesis-driven research workflow breaks your mission into research questions, designs experiments to challenge assumptions, and iterates through an H->E->F evidence flow until success criteria are met or approaches are exhausted.

How do I set up a knowledge base for long-running experimentation sessions?

You set up a knowledge base by initializing a mission brief in a dedicated folder. This brief must include your objective, context or baseline, success criteria, resource boundaries, and a blocked stop condition to guide the research loop.

Can I use an autonomous agent workflow for benchmarking approaches and optimizing metrics?

Yes, you can use an autonomous agent workflow for benchmarking approaches, optimizing metrics, and investigating root causes. It operates across long sessions by maintaining durable artifacts that link hypotheses to experimental findings.

What happens when an autonomous research agent gets blocked during an experiment?

When an autonomous research agent gets blocked, it escalates by asking you for input instead of guessing. It maintains a full traceable reasoning trail of decisions and outputs for your review.

Does evidence-based research require validating scripts before running the loop?

Yes, evidence-based research requires validating required fields and scripts before running the research loop. This ensures the persistent knowledge base is correctly initialized to maintain the evidence flow.
