HARD-GATE
Cannot exit strategy until ≥80% of each budget line is consumed OR yield targets are met with justification for remaining budget.
Available Tactics
| Tactic | Role |
|---|
| inversion-protocol | Reverse → extract → build constructive alternatives |
Available SOPs
| SOP | Role |
|---|
| worst-case-design | Design the worst possible solution in detail |
| inversion-extraction | Extract why it's bad → what the opposite implies |
| constructive-rebellion | Build constructive solutions from extracted insights |
| destruction-synthesis | Synthesize inversion outputs |
Execution Guidance
- Define worst: Use worst-case-design to create a detailed terrible solution
- Analyze failure: Identify exactly WHY each element makes it bad
- Extract principles: Use inversion-extraction to find the inverse principles
- Research: Search for domains where the inverse principles are already applied
- Build solutions: Use constructive-rebellion to form viable alternatives
- Synthesize: Produce structured output via destruction-synthesis
Available Tactics
Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.
| Tactic | When to use |
|---|
| inversion-protocol | Reverse statements → extract insights → build constructive alternatives. Systematic inversion pipeline from negation to innovation. |
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. |
| destruction-synthesis | Synthesize all assumption destruction outputs into structured destructive innovation report. |
| inversion-extraction | Extract constructive insights from worst solutions. Transform failure analysis into innovation directions. |
| worst-case-design | Design the worst possible solution. Deliberate failure engineering to reveal hidden constraints and inversion opportunities. |
