What problem does it solve?

Core research principles for hypothesis-driven investigation help teams plan, execute, and review experiments with rigor, transparency, and auditable reasoning.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Hypothesis-Driven Exploration: State hypotheses before experiments and pre-register predictions.
• Documentation Standards: Log commands, parameters, timestamps, outputs verbatim.
• Red-team Your Results: Actively seek disconfirming evidence and test sensitivity of results.
• Escalation Ladder: Use staged prompting and validation approaches, from zero-shot to supervised fine-tuning, to ensure reliability.
• Reproducibility & Audit: Maintain traceable experiments and decisions across roles (orchestrator, scientists, colleagues, judge).

Quick Start

Document your current hypothesis, pre-register predictions, and log decisions to begin applying these principles.
