Factor Enumeration

Lists all factors that the conclusion depends on — explicit conditions, implicit assumptions, and background requirements.

Execution

Subagent — spawned via subagent-spawning/spawn-agent.

Why Subagent

Comprehensive factor enumeration requires systematic scanning without being biased by which factors seem most important.

Input

• artifact: The artifact to analyze
• causal_claims: Previously extracted causal claims (optional)

Output

• factors: List of {name, type, explicit/implicit, suspected_importance}
• factor_count: Total factors identified
• categories: Grouping of factors by type

Budget

One unit = one enumeration pass per artifact.

Available SOPs

Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.

SOP	When to use
spawn-agent	Spawn a customized CC subagent with full MCP tool access. Used by SOPs that declare execution: subagent.
