Idea Generator

papers/**/*.md (required local paper source)

Use local Markdown paper notes as the only paper source for this skill.

Rules:

• read only the relevant subset
• do not invent missing details
• if the corpus is weak or empty, say so explicitly

prompts/generate_idea.md (authoritative template)

Always read prompts/generate_idea.md before producing the final answer.

Treat it as the authoritative prompt for:

• reasoning order
• output structure
• idea quality bar

Workflow

1. Validate input_md_path.

   • Confirm the file exists and is Markdown.
   • If it is missing or unreadable, stop and ask the user for a valid path.

2. Read the user brief first.

   • Extract the problem, scenario, constraints, assumptions, non-goals, and what “better” should mean.

3. Scan papers/**/*.md.

   • Find the smallest relevant subset.
   • Extract method family, mechanism, assumptions, strengths, limitations, and reusable design patterns.

4. Identify the improvement opportunity.

   • Compare the brief against the local paper map.
   • Pin down what should be reused, what should change, and what contradiction or failure mode the new idea should resolve.

5. Use paper-miner only when helpful.

   • Invoke it if the local notes are numerous, heterogeneous, or weakly structured.
   • Otherwise complete the task locally.

6. Load prompts/generate_idea.md.

   • Follow its workflow and output structure exactly.

7. Produce exactly one coherent idea.

   • Prefer conceptual unity over module stacking.
   • Prefer the minimal number of tightly coupled contributions.
   • Make clear what is reused, what is changed, and why the result is more reasonable than the source methods.

Source Rules

• Base every core judgment on input_md_path and relevant papers/**/*.md.
• Treat local paper notes as grounded evidence for ideation.
• Do not claim a paper supports something unless that support appears in the local note.
• Do not fall back to online search inside this skill.

Output Rules

• Respond in Chinese.
• Follow the structure required by prompts/generate_idea.md.
• Keep assumptions and uncertainty inside the required sections.
• State integration scope, likely compute or data cost, and key assumptions explicitly.

Failure Handling

• Missing input_md_path: ask the user for a valid Markdown path.
• Empty or irrelevant papers/**/*.md: say that local paper grounding is unavailable, then stop or proceed with reduced confidence.
• Conflicting paper notes: surface the conflict before committing to the idea.
• Weak novelty evidence: avoid strong claims such as first, novel, or state of the art.
