yogsoth-ai Assumption Audit
Systematically audit assumptions underlying a method, theory, or gap.
When to Use
Need to identify which hidden assumptions are most dangerous — load-bearing yet unexamined.

Available Tactics
- assumption-stress-test
Available SOPs
Import: web-search, web-research, paper-overview, paper-search, paper-research Subagent: abp-vulnerability-classification, clr-validation Shared: assumption-surfacing
Execution Guidance
Surface all assumptions (shared SOP), classify by vulnerability (ABP), validate causal logic (CLR 8-check). Focus on load-bearing + non-explicit assumptions.
Output Format
Assumption Audit Report — assumption inventory, vulnerability matrix, CLR validation results, priority list for challenging.
Available Tactics
Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.
| Tactic | When to use |
|---|---|
| assumption-stress-test | Systematic stress testing of assumptions — surface, classify by vulnerability, attack, assess fragility. Combines assumption-surfacing (shared), abp-vulnerability-classification, and clr-validation SOPs. |
Available SOPs
Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.
| SOP | When to use |
|---|---|
| abp-vulnerability-classification | Classify assumptions on 2 axes — load-bearing (how much conclusion depends on it) × vulnerable (how likely to be false). Focuses attention on High-Load × High-Vulnerable quadrant. |
| clr-validation | Apply Goldratt's 8 Categories of Legitimate Reservation to validate causal claims. Tests clarity, existence, sufficiency, and logical integrity. |
| deep-insight-assumption-surfacing | Systematically extract implicit assumptions from methods, frameworks, or arguments. Identifies what is taken for granted without explicit justification. |
