## Description

Generate and rank research ideas given a broad direction. Use when user says "找idea", "brainstorm ideas", "generate research ideas", "what can we work on", or wants to explore a research area for publishable directions.

Generate publishable research ideas for: $ARGUMENTS

## Overview

Given a broad research direction from the user, systematically generate, validate, and rank concrete research ideas. Standalone, Phase 1's landscape survey is **inline** (WebSearch, it does not invoke `/research-lit`); Phases 4-5 invoke `/novelty-check`, `/run-experiment`, and `/monitor-experiment` for validation and pilots. For the full sub-skill pipeline (`/research-lit` → idea generation → `/novelty-check` → `/research-review`), run `/idea-discovery` (Workflow 1), which orchestrates this skill.

## Constants

Reviewer overrides apply to Phase 4 and reviewer-bearing children. Phase 2
brainstorming and native lens workers keep their existing generation model; do
not pass a selected MCP reviewer model into a native generation call.
