What problem does it solve?
It helps you convert an initially vague research direction into a concrete, problem-anchored, implementation-ready method plan that is frontier-aware and suitable for top-venue scrutiny.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Problem Anchor Preservation: Freezes an immutable problem statement and carries it through every iteration to prevent drift.
- Method-First, Elegance-First Refinement Loop: Builds an initial proposal from targeted grounding, then iteratively reviews and refines it with emphasis on mechanism clarity and contribution focus.
- Claim-Driven Validation Design: Produces minimal validation experiments tied to the core claims, avoiding benchmark or module sprawl.
- Checkpoint Recovery: Persists state across phases to support interruption tolerance and safe resumption.
Quick Start
Use the research-refine skill when you want to refine my approach for a research problem into a concrete, implementation-oriented plan, and include your problem plus your current vague approach.
