Inversion Protocol

Reverse statements → extract insights → build constructive alternatives.

Stages

Stage 1: Reversal Generation

Use reversal-generation SOP to systematically reverse positive statements, assumptions, and goals into their opposites. Generate both simple negations and creative inversions.

Stage 2: Inversion Extraction

For each reversal, use inversion-extraction SOP to extract constructive insights. Ask: "What does this reversal reveal about the original? What hidden constraint does it expose?"

Stage 3: Constructive Rebellion

Use constructive-rebellion SOP to build viable, constructive alternatives from the extracted insights. Transform destructive negation into productive innovation.

Minimum Yield

Metric	Floor
Reversals generated	≥6
Insights extracted	≥5
Constructive alternatives	≥4
Alternatives with clear mechanism	≥3

Available SOPs

SOP	Role
reversal-generation	Stage 1 — systematic reversal of statements
inversion-extraction	Stage 2 — extract insights from reversals
constructive-rebellion	Stage 3 — build alternatives from insights
worst-case-design	Stage 1 alt — design worst solution for inversion
destruction-synthesis	Post — synthesize all inversion outputs

Available SOPs

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

SOP	When to use
constructive-rebellion	Build constructive alternatives from destructive negation. Transform violated assumptions into viable innovation directions.
inversion-extraction	Extract constructive insights from worst solutions. Transform failure analysis into innovation directions.
reversal-generation	Systematically reverse positive statements to generate creative inversions. Produces reversed statements with initial associations.
worst-case-design	Design the worst possible solution. Deliberate failure engineering to reveal hidden constraints and inversion opportunities.
