Execution Guidance

Analyze behavior across scales (data size, model size, compute, time), detect regime changes (breakpoints where behavior qualitatively shifts), identify capacity limits and their mechanisms.

Available SOPs

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

SOP	When to use
edge-case-generation	Systematically generate boundary inputs — boundary values, adversarial constructions, distribution shifts, rare combinations, scale extremes.
scaling-regime-detection	Detect regime changes in scaling behavior — breakpoints where behavior qualitatively shifts, mechanisms behind transitions.
