What it does
Turn a refined research proposal or method idea into a detailed, claim-driven experiment roadmap. Use after `research-refine`, or when the user asks for a detailed experiment plan, ablation matrix, evaluation protocol, run order, compute budget, or paper-ready validation that supports the core problem, novelty, simplicity, and any LLM / VLM / Diffusion / RL-based contribution.
Experiment Plan: Claim-Driven, Paper-Oriented Validation
Refine and concretize: $ARGUMENTS
Overview
Use this skill after the method is stable enough that the next question becomes: what exact experiments should we run, in what order, to defend the paper? If the user wants the full chain in one request, prefer /research-refine-pipeline.
The goal is not to generate a giant benchmark wishlist. The goal is to turn a proposal into a claim -> evidence -> run order roadmap that supports four things:
- the method actually solves the anchored problem
- the dominant contribution is real and focused
- the method is elegant enough that extra complexity is unnecessary
- any frontier-model-era component is genuinely useful, not decorative
Constants
- OUTPUT_DIR =
refine-logs/, Default destination for experiment planning artifacts. - MAX_PRIMARY_CLAIMS = 2, Prefer one dominant claim plus one supporting claim.
- MAX_CORE_BLOCKS = 5, Keep the must-run experimental story compact.
- MAX_BASELINE_FAMILIES = 3, Prefer a few strong baselines over many weak ones.
- DEFAULT_SEEDS = 3, Use 3 seeds when stochastic variance matters and budget allows.
Workflow
Phase 0: Load the Proposal Context
Read the most relevant existing files first if they exist:
refine-logs/FINAL_PROPOSAL.mdrefine-logs/REVIEW_SUMMARY.mdrefine-logs/REFINEMENT_REPORT.md
Extract:
- Problem Anchor
- Dominant contribution
- Optional supporting contribution
- Critical reviewer concerns
- Data / compute / timeline constraints
- Which frontier primitive is central, if any
If these files do not exist, derive the same information from the user's prompt.
Phase 1: Freeze the Paper Claims
Before proposing experiments, write down the claims that must be defended.
