mars

Govern authoritative references for research projects: enforce immutable pins, waiver lifecycle, ledger consistency, and inventory linkage before G2/G3-sensitive execution.

Guide any research experiment bundle to completion using staged AskQuestions decision packs, gate checks (G1-G4), adjudication closure, and claim-status propagation.

Emit structured MARS telemetry signals after startpoint, discovery, planning, execution, analysis, adjudication, or retrospective work. Use for workflow gaps, contract gaps, evidence gaps, decision friction, overhead, proposals, and reusable patterns that should inform later reflection.

Build the project-level research foundations baseline before protocol design by producing domain context, methodology/theory synthesis, source catalog updates, reference-ledger updates, and library-grade inventory coverage.

Normalize a brownfield research project to the MARS knowledge-stack contract using dependency-ordered waves across definitions, references, context bundles, inventory, and experiment artifacts.

Unified MARS startpoint. Detect greenfield or brownfield scope, run discovery, scaffold a repository-valid research project baseline when needed, and enforce structural readiness before protocol design or execution.
