Idea Memo Writer

Idea Memo Writer

Triggers & routing

• Trigger: idea memo, brainstorm memo, research direction memo, report md, 研究备忘录, brainstorm report.
• Use when: the shortlist exists and you want the final reader-facing brainstorm deliverable for PI / PhD discussion.

Goal: turn the shortlist into a discussion-ready memo.

Load Order

Always read:

• references/overview.md
• references/report_structure.md

Script Boundary

Use scripts/run.py only for:

• deterministic assembly of the report from trace artifacts
• calling tooling/ideation.py library functions for rendering

Do not treat run.py as the place for:

• ideation heuristics or scoring logic
• hardcoded report prose templates

The final memo should feel like:

• an advisor-ready discussion memo rather than workflow notes,
• paper-specific in its evidence hooks and appendix reading guide,
• explicit about rank logic and quick kill criteria,

and still feel like:

• a strong brainstorming artifact,
• grounded in the literature,
• rich enough for PI/PhD discussion,
• but not frozen into a rigid project execution spec.
