SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates end-to-end idea discovery, transforming a broad research direction into a validated, pilot-ready set of ideas and plans to move forward.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Orchestrates the full workflow: literature survey, idea creation, novelty checks, critical reviews, and refinement planning.
  • Produces structured outputs such as idea-stage reports, refined proposals, and experiment roadmaps to save researchers time and reduce risk.
  • Use cases include starting from "找idea全流程" prompts or general directions to obtain a concrete, testable research plan.

Quick Start

Describe your research direction and I will run the full idea-discovery workflow to generate a ranked IDEA_REPORT and a concrete experiment plan.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate research idea generation from a broad direction?▼

Idea discovery automates end-to-end research idea generation by taking a broad research direction and running literature surveys, novelty checks, and critical reviews to output a validated, pilot-ready set of ideas.

What is the best way to validate research novelty before starting experiments?▼

Validating research novelty is achieved by running automated novelty checks and critical reviews against existing literature, generating refined proposals and experiment plans to ensure ideas are pilot-ready.

Can I use this workflow to generate a full experiment plan from a literature survey?▼

Yes, the workflow orchestrates the full transition from a literature survey into a concrete experiment plan, generating structured experiment roadmaps and refined proposals to guide pilot studies.

Does the idea discovery workflow support configurable constraints for pilot limits?▼

Yes, the idea discovery workflow supports configurable constraints and checkpoints for pilot limits, actively tracking budgets to ensure generated experiment plans remain within defined research boundaries.

What outputs should I expect from an AI-assisted research review workflow?▼

Outputs from an AI-assisted research review workflow include a structured IDEA_REPORT.md, refined proposals, and concrete experiment plans, transforming initial directions into actionable research steps.
