{"version":"0.3.4","last_updated":"2026-07-19","summary":"Two-axis discovery: uniform Plan/Build/Execute/Report lifecycle x 3 folder types (Search/Review/Idea), mirroring task. Each type has a specialist skill (haipipe-discovery-search/-review/-idea) heading its bucket. Self-contained folders (no parent field); contract = discovery.yaml + evidence files + the OPTIONAL QA/ folder. v3.1 — THE QA FILE GAINS ONE MUTABLE FIELD, a `state:` line, and becomes a TICKET THAT BECOMES A RECEIPT (JL ruling 2026-07-14; probe SKILL 8.2.0 PART 3a R19/R20/R21). THE HOLE IT CLOSES: two consumers ask the same question a week apart; the first dispatches an expensive lifecycle run; the second, while that run is STILL GOING, sees no QA file and dispatches THE SAME RUN AGAIN — because a QA file used to be written ONCE, at Report, complete, and its EXISTENCE was the only signal. Now: `- state: working | answered | superseded-by: QA/<m>-<slug>.md` + `- started: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM` (MANDATORY on a working file) + optional `- by:`. Gate ③ LIFECYCLE now CLAIMS FIRST (writes the QA file with `state: working` + `started:` + an EMPTY `## Answer` under `set -C` noclobber) and COMPLETES it at Report (`state: answered` + the body). Gate ① SCAN branches on the state line (answered → path · working → 'in progress since <started>', DO NOT RE-RUN · working+EXPIRED → zombie, RESTART · superseded-by → follow the chain to the live answer). Gate ② DIGEST still writes ONCE, complete, `answered` — no claim, nothing to race. THE LOAD-BEARING INVARIANT IS *ONE WRITER*, NOT *WRITE-ONCE*: two writes by the same owner is fine; a CONSUMER creating/claiming/editing a QA file is the retired _ASK/ stub in a QA/ costume and is FORBIDDEN. TTL = the named constant QA_WORKING_TTL_HOURS = 24 (a `working` file with no `started:` can never expire and is a zombie by construction). RACE GUARD = `set -C` and nothing more — the loser re-scans and defers; no lock dirs, no lease servers, no ledgers. SUPERSESSION: a re-run whose answer CHANGES writes QA/<n+1> and APPENDS `superseded-by:` to the old file's state line — R15 (ENRICH never mutates) still holds FOR THE BODY; only the state line is mutable, and only its own owner edits it. Checker HARD-FAILs: qa-working-no-started · qa-working-expired · qa-answered-empty (+ the consumer-side read-target-working / read-target-superseded). Every field name, state value, TTL constant and flag spelling is CHARACTER-IDENTICAL to the task twin. v3.0 (Tools/plugins/haipipe-toolkit/diagram/260714-probe-qa/ v3, R2/R9/R10/R11/R17/R18): THE BANK IS PROBE-UNAWARE — _ASK/ stubs, `answers:` and every PP id DELETED; the `qa` VERB (fn/qa.md) is the one question door — gate ① QA SCAN → ② DIGEST → ③ lifecycle (depth ladder: read | enrich | new folder | new group) → 🚫 REFUSE (task-shaped → /haipipe-task qa), returning <discovery-folder>/QA/<n>-<slug>.md (numbered = the index, slug only, three legal reasons to exist). R17 TWO SESSION MODES: this layer's PRIMARY mode is its own autonomous lifecycle — qa is a SIDE door, and answerability work (digests, reusable source bases) is native executor work. R18 TWO EXPLORERS: a human via the verb, and the orchestrator agent (commissioned by a probe's dispatch, or self-directed) — both probe-unaware, same gate, same files. A Review-type verdict.md is this layer's OWN terminal and SURVIVES (it is not the retired probe 'Verdict'). v6.2/v3.2 (R19 HARDENING): gate ① now READS THE STATE LINE **BEFORE** the literally-answers test. A `working` file's ## Answer is EMPTY BY CONSTRUCTION, so testing it for an answer is a guaranteed miss that drops through to ③ and RE-RUNS the job someone is already running (a new <n>, a different slug, `set -C` never fires) — the duplicate run, executed by obeying the rules. A `working` file is matched on its `# Q —` LINE instead. A QA file with NO `- state:` line is MALFORMED, not legacy (checker: qa-no-state): this layer OWNS it, so it REPAIRS it (tag `answered` if the Answer has a body, else RESTART as a zombie). The same-<n>/different-slug claim race is NON-FATAL BY RULING and is NOT a reviewer REVISE — the reviewers now carry the exemption explicitly."}
Skill: haipipe-discovery (orchestrator)
Single entry for the discovery layer: what the outside world already knows (Search gather, Review analyze) and the new angles drawn from it (Idea create). Discovery is external evidence work, not a task execution stage. Durable evidence lives under discoveries/; whoever needs it references it from their own side — this layer never references upward.
Discovery is one of the two EXECUTORS (task is the other). Same shape, same rules: it runs a lifecycle for its OWN sake, it is PROBE-UNAWARE, and it answers plain questions through its own qa verb. See "Two session modes" below.
Verbs
/haipipe-discovery -> dashboard: render this verb list + the Model line, suggest the likely next command
/haipipe-discovery <discovery> -> run full lifecycle on a folder
/haipipe-discovery <discovery-group> -> iterate/summarize children
/haipipe-discovery status [path] -> read-only status
/haipipe-discovery open <type> <question> -> scaffold a typed discovery-folder (type = Search | Review | Idea)
/haipipe-discovery open-group <slug> -> ensure discovery-group dir
/haipipe-discovery plan <discovery> -> (re)write discovery.yaml
/haipipe-discovery build <discovery> -> author the optional instrument (build/)
/haipipe-discovery execute <discovery> -> do the work, write the terminal file
/haipipe-discovery report <discovery> -> append the report block + log event
/haipipe-discovery qa "<question>" [<discovery-folder>] -> THE QUESTION DOOR: answer ONE general-language
question -> <discovery-folder>/QA/<n>-<slug>.md (see fn/qa.md)
/haipipe-discovery feedback "<text>" | list [unit] | move <file> <unit> -> skill-feedback inbox (see Feedback)
/haipipe-discovery digest ["<session-name|id>"] [--dry-run] -> harvest a session's feedback (see Feedback)
/haipipe-discovery <specialist> [args] -> one-off worker dispatch (NO folder)
/haipipe-discovery "<natural language>" -> infer + dispatch (Routing)
The qa verb — the question door (R11)
Full contract: fn/qa.md. In one screen:
/haipipe-discovery qa "<question>" [<discovery-folder>] [--check-only]
input: ONE question, GENERAL language. NO PP id, NO paper ref, NO stake, NO claim id.
The verb never learns WHO asks or WHY. It answers questions. That is all.
① QA SCAN grep <discovery-folder>/QA/*.md (or all discovery-folders). MATCH ON THE ANSWER, never the
topic: READ the file. Then READ ITS STATE LINE: ~0
state: answered -> return the QA file PATH
state: working -> SOMEONE IS ALREADY ON IT. Return the path +
"in progress since <started>". DO NOT RE-RUN.
working, EXPIRED past QA_WORKING_TTL_HOURS -> 🧟 zombie: RESTART it
superseded-by: X -> follow the chain, return the LIVE answer
② DIGEST sources.md / notes.md / verdict.md / landscape.md / ideas.md already
answer it, but no readable digest exists -> write QA/<n>-<slug>.md
ONCE, COMPLETE, `state: answered`, from EXISTING artifacts. cheap
No searching, no new judgment. No claim — nothing to race.
③ LIFECYCLE neither -> ⚑ CLAIM FIRST (write the QA file with `state: working` +
`started:` under `set -C`), then Plan → Build(opt) → Execute → Report
at the SHALLOWEST depth that answers it, and COMPLETE the same file at
Report (`state: answered` + the `## Answer` body):
depth 0 READ · depth 1 ENRICH (on-topic, same discovery-folder) ·
depth 2 NEW FOLDER (in the group) · depth 3 NEW GROUP
🚫 REFUSE not discovery-shaped -> the CALLER re-routes. RELEASE any claim.
task-shaped (code / runs / metrics on our own data) -> /haipipe-task qa
THREE CALLERS: a probe's DISPATCH (via the orchestrator agent) · a HUMAN directly ·
the ORCHESTRATOR itself (self-directed). None of them is special.
The commission lives in the CONSUMER's own probe file; this layer only ever sees a plain
question, and nothing under discoveries/ carries a trace of who asked.
Two session modes (R17) — the primary mode is NOT question-driven
⚙️ THIS LAYER (executor) 📄 the CONSUMER (paper / application)
══════════════════════════ ═══════════════════════════
just runs Plan → Build → Execute → raises its questions, matches them
Report on its own research topics against this bank, commissions the gaps
— no question needed, no ask (its probe files hold the stake; we
│ never see them)
▼ │
the bank grows AUTONOMOUSLY ◀───────────────┘ most questions should already
discovery.yaml · sources.md · terminals be ANSWERED before anyone asks
│
└─ ANSWERABILITY WORK (native, probe-unaware):
· write QA/ digests for notable findings
· build reusable source bases so future questions are CHEAP
it does not know WHICH questions will come. It makes the bank
EASIER TO ASK. That is discovery-native work.
The Model
Two axes, same as task: LIFECYCLE Plan -> Build(opt) -> Execute -> Report (uniform, process verbs) × TYPE Search · Review · Idea (folder kinds; each type maps 1:1 to its bucket). The type only changes what Execute produces:
Search INPUT search + read source material -> sources.md + notes.md (reusable source base)
Review PROCESS judge a claim OR map a field -> verdict.md (judge) / landscape.md (synthesize), role: picks
Idea OUTPUT generate ideas OR check novelty -> ideas.md (idea_generation) / verdict.md (novelty_check)
The CANONICAL contract lives in ONE place — per-stage IO and the chain: ref/lifecycle-map.md; fields, roles, terminal templates: ref/discovery-yaml-schema.md. Do not restate them here. A one-off capability call does NOT create a folder; the discovery-folder is only for durable, project-tracked topics — the same split as a quick script vs a scaffolded task-folder.
The discovery-folder, in full — the QA/ folder is OPTIONAL and every discovery-folder may carry one (R9):
discoveries/P01_trait-opioid-prior-art/02_agreeableness-rx-prior-art/
├── discovery.yaml Q — the spec (Plan writes · Report appends report:)
├── build/ the optional instrument
├── sources.md A — raw evidence ┐
├── notes.md A — what was read │ the layer's own terminals; a
├── verdict.md A — the TERMINAL ┘ Review verdict.md is OURS and SURVIVES
└── QA/ A — READABLE digests 🆕 optional, not every discovery-folder has one
├── 1-trait-rx-prior-art.md
└── 2-dose-response-coverage.md
A QA FILE IS A TICKET THAT BECOMES A RECEIPT. It carries exactly ONE mutable field —
the state line — and everything below it is written once and never touched again:
# Q — <thequestion, restatedbytheexecutorinitsownwords>- state: working | answered | superseded-by: QA/<m>-<slug>.md
- started: 2026-07-14T09:12 ← MANDATORY when state: working
- by: <runid | agent | human> ← optional provenance
## Answer EMPTY while state: working. Filled at REPORT.## Caveats## Not-done
NAMING IS THE INDEX. QA/<n>-<slug>.md, n = creation order. `ls QA/` IS the index —
numbered, ordered, greppable. It now reads as a menu of BOTH: what this discovery-folder has
established, AND what it is establishing right now. No INDEX file until a discovery-folder's QA
count earns one.
SLUG ONLY. No PP id, no claim id, no paper ref in a bank filename — ever.
⚠️ THE LOAD-BEARING INVARIANT IS *ONE WRITER*, NOT *WRITE-ONCE*.
This layer writes the file TWICE — the CLAIM at the qa gate's ③ decision
(state: working + started:), the COMPLETION at Report (state: answered + the
## Answer body). Two writes by the SAME OWNER is fine.
⛔ A CONSUMER (probe / paper / application) must NEVER create, claim, edit,
complete, or supersede a QA file. A consumer-planted `working` file is the
retired _ASK/ stub wearing a QA/ costume, and it is FORBIDDEN.
WRITER: this layer. Only gate ③ ever produces a `working` file, and only transiently
(gate ① writes nothing; gate ② writes once, complete). Anatomy + the three
legal reasons a QA file may exist (commissioned · digest-only · executor's
own): fn/qa.md.
THE CLAIM MUST EXPIRE. `started:` is MANDATORY on a `working` file — a claim that
cannot expire is a zombie by construction. TTL = the named constant
QA_WORKING_TTL_HOURS = 24. Past it the claim is STALE and the next qa call may
RESTART it (fresh started:, abandoned attempt recorded in ## Not-done).
RACE GUARD. Create the claim under `set -C` (noclobber). The loser re-scans and
DEFERS. No lock dirs, no lease servers, no ledgers.
SUPERSESSION. A later run whose answer CHANGES writes QA/<n+1>-<slug>.md and APPENDS
`superseded-by:` to the OLD file's state line — by this layer, never by a consumer.
A QA file's BODY is never edited. The state line is the ONE mutable field.
STATUS reads the STATE LINE, not mere existence:
no QA file -> not answered
state: working -> IN PROGRESS (since <started>)
state: answered -> answered
superseded-by: X -> answered, but STALE — the live answer is X
⛔ ABUSE GUARD: a QA/ that mirrors every source is noise, not an index.
⛔ LAW 2 (bank surface): a QA file carries NO consumer vocabulary — no C\d, no H\d,
no "claims-stage", no "the paper" meaning someone's paper. Write it for the NEXT
reader, who has a different stake, or none.
⛔ THE CHECKER HARD-FAILS three defects THIS layer can write:
qa-working-no-started (unexpirable `working` file) · qa-working-expired (zombie past
QA_WORKING_TTL_HOURS) · qa-answered-empty (`state: answered` with an EMPTY
## Answer — a lying receipt).
Group letters are purpose hints, not the source of truth (type:/role: in discovery.yaml are authoritative). Three purposes, one routing question each:
S source base just building a pile of sources? (mostly Search)
L landscape understanding a field / context? (mostly Review synthesize, Idea)
P proof / prior art testing a specific claim against outside? (mostly Review judge, Search)
Buckets (Execute-stage workers)
Three buckets, 1:1 with the types, each HEADED by a type-specialist skill that owns that type's Execute procedure and output contracts (the Review Output Contract lives in haipipe-discovery-review) and picks among the workers beside it:
Bucket aliases: 1|search, 2|review, 3|idea|novelty. (Reading is part of searching — no separate read alias.)
Routing
0. First positional is `qa` -> route to fn/qa.md BEFORE any other parsing. Everything after
it is ONE general-language question (+ an optional discovery-folder path, + --check-only). Never
re-interpret a qa question as a routing keyword.
1. First positional is a lifecycle verb (open / open-group / plan / build / execute / report / status)
-> durable operation on the folder. `feedback` and `digest` route to fn/feedback.md /
fn/digest.md BEFORE any other parsing; neither scaffolds a folder.
2. First positional is an existing path: discovery-folder -> run requested stage or full
lifecycle; discovery-group -> iterate/summarize children.
3. `open <type>` where type ∈ {Search, Review, Idea} -> scaffold that typed folder.
4. First positional is a specialist name -> dispatch that worker (one-off, NO folder).
5. arXiv ID / URL in args -> a 1_search read worker:
"summarize|explain" -> alphaxiv ; "section|layered" -> deepxiv ; "analyze|claims" -> paper-analyzer
bare ID, no verb -> alphaxiv
6. First positional is a bucket alias -> use that bucket.
7. Keyword scan (pick a worker for a one-off, or infer a folder type):
"preprint|arxiv" -> arxiv (Search)
"IEEE|ACM|venue|citation" -> semantic-scholar (Search)
"web|blog|news|exa" -> exa-search (Search)
"review|survey|landscape|map the field|related work" -> research-lit (Review synthesize)
"prior art|is X known|does X exist|already done" -> Review judge (verdict)
"novelty|is this idea new|查新" -> novelty-check (Idea, role novelty_check)
"brainstorm|find idea|找idea|propose" -> idea-creator (Idea)
8. Bucket resolved, specialist unresolved -> bucket default
(1_search: arxiv to find, alphaxiv to read one paper | 2_review: research-lit | 3_idea: idea-creator).
9. Nothing resolves -> ask: Search (gather) / Review (judge or map) / Idea (generate or check)?
Dispatch: Skill(<specialist>, args="..."); do not auto-chain. Type-level work goes to the type specialists — they pick workers and carry the output contracts.
Protocol (durable project work)
Walk the lifecycle stages; never hand-place a completed discovery package.
Step 0 Resolve project root = nearest ancestor with tasks/, paper/, applications/, or _haipipe/.
If ambiguous, ask (AUTO -> blocked).
Step 1 Resolve scope: folder (has discovery.yaml) -> run stage(s); group -> iterate;
open-group -> create container; open <type> <question> -> scaffold; specialist -> one-off.
Step 2 Group: purpose letter (S/L/P) + next free two-digit id (no renumbering).
Step 3 Folder: next free NN_<slug>/ in the group. One topic per folder; slug names the TOPIC.
Step 4 Run the stages (each owns its files):
Plan write discovery.yaml (type + role + question + sources + expected_outputs).
The QUESTION is the whole contract — whether it came from this layer's own
research agenda, from a human, or verbatim from a caller's dispatch. It
arrives in GENERAL language and it is answered on its own terms; there is
no stub to read and nothing upward to look at.
NO parent field — self-contained; append discovery.opened to _haipipe/project.log.jsonl
Build (optional) author the instrument under build/; set status building
Execute dispatch the TYPE SKILL — Search -> haipipe-discovery-search,
Review -> haipipe-discovery-review, Idea -> haipipe-discovery-idea;
inspect local project evidence first unless fresh web search was asked; set status executing
Report APPEND the report: block (absent until now; outcome != lifecycle status);
set top-level status (ok / inconclusive / blocked);
THE QA FILE — QA/<n>-<slug>.md, for exactly one of the three legal
reasons (commissioned · digest-only · executor's own):
· came in via gate ③ -> the CLAIM already exists on disk
(state: working + started:, empty ## Answer, written at the ③
decision BEFORE Plan ran). COMPLETE it here: rewrite the state line
to `state: answered` and fill the `## Answer` body. That is the
SECOND and LAST write, by the same owner.
· came in via gate ② -> CREATE it here, ONCE, COMPLETE,
`state: answered`. No claim was needed — the write is instant.
THE EXECUTOR HOLDS THE PEN: whoever asked may have CAUSED this file, but
this layer AUTHORS it — both writes — in general language, with no
consumer vocabulary in it (fn/qa.md · LAW 2). A CONSUMER never writes
a QA file, and never touches its state line;
append discovery.completed to the project log
Handoff return the terminal path (+ the QA file path, if one was written) to the
caller; the CALLER records the link on its own side and appends
discovery.consumed — the discovery records nothing upward. No `answers:`
field, no ask mailbox, no id of any kind: whoever asked harvests the path
on their own schedule.
Step 5 Return: {status, discovery_group, discovery_folder, type, files_written, qa_file, next}.
Feedback
feedback / digest are utility verbs about THIS skill (not about discovery findings); capture-only — fixing is a later revision pass. Full contract: fn/feedback.md + fn/digest.md; fallback inbox: feedback/README.md.
capture feedback "<text>" -> route to the unit's feedback/ inbox: cross-cutting guard first
(lifecycle/type-field/schema-wide -> THIS folder's feedback/),
else keyword -> unit, else active context, else fallback.
Units: 1_search · 2_review · 3_idea · agents. MERGE-OR-CREATE:
same-topic items update the existing file (dated recurrence,
verbatim history, reopen if fixed), never duplicate.
list feedback list [unit] -> aggregate open items across ALL inboxes, grouped by unit.
move feedback move <file> <unit> -> re-route a mis-filed item (pure file move).
digest digest [session] [--dry-run] -> scan a session transcript (past by name/id, else current)
for conversational feedback; distill, dedup, MANDATORY confirm
gate, then route each item through capture. Global behavioral
prefs go to /remember, not inboxes.
Behavioral Preferences (portable)
ALWAYS read and honor PREFERENCES.md in this skill's folder: git-tracked global behavioral preferences that survive a machine change, kept in sync across orchestrators by /haipipe-paper digest's global-pref fan-out.
