Feasibility Assessment
Evaluate whether selected research candidates can actually be implemented. This campaign applies Technology Readiness Levels (TRL), NASSS complexity framework, Stage-Gate processes, TRIZ contradiction analysis, Theory of Constraints (TOC), and parametric estimation to determine real-world viability before committing resources.

Context Management
State is maintained in the campaign ledger with keys:
candidates[] — items under feasibility assessmentdimension_scores{} — readiness scores per dimension per candidateconstraints{} — identified constraints per candidategate_verdicts{} — stage-gate decisionsfeasibility_matrix — final comparative matrix
Available Strategies
Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.
| Strategy |
When to use |
| comparative-feasibility-ranking |
Compare feasibility across multiple candidates using multi-dimensional radar and weighted feasibility index. |
| constraint-identification |
Find blockers and showstoppers using TOC, TRIZ contradiction analysis, and Pre-mortem techniques. |
| maturation-pathway-design |
Design path to readiness using Stage-Gate, Technology Roadmapping, and milestone planning methods. |
| maturity-diagnosis |
Assess current readiness of candidates using TRL 9-level, NASSS 7-dimension, and Innovation Readiness Level frameworks. |
| resource-envelope-estimation |
Estimate resources, budget, and timeline using parametric, analogous, and three-point (PERT) estimation methods. |
Available SOPs
Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.
| SOP |
When to use |
| context-checkpoint |
Append research process and results to the current Phase's context file. Covers both process and results with genuine substance. Use this skill at plan-designated checkpoint points — typically after each strategy completes or at key decision nodes within a research Phase. |
| context-init |
Create a new context file for a research Phase. Called once at Phase start to initialize the file that subsequent context-checkpoint calls will append to. Use this skill whenever a new research Phase begins and a fresh context file is needed. |
| convergence-paper-research |
Full-text deep reading of methodology papers — complete understanding of algorithms, proofs, and implementation details. |
| convergence-paper-search |
Paper AI summary reading — deeper understanding of specific methodology papers without full-text commitment. |
| convergence-saturation-detection |
Determines when to stop iterating — coverage threshold met or marginal returns diminishing. Shared across all campaigns. |
