Execution Guidance

Surface Argyris governing variables (the unstated rules driving behavior), generate counter-assumptions for each, test whether the problem dissolves under alternative governing variables (double-loop learning).

Available Tactics

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

Tactic	When to use
deep-insight-dialectical-escalation	Double-loop learning escalation — surface governing variables, generate counter-assumptions, test if problem dissolves under alternatives, score wickedness if it persists.

Available SOPs

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

SOP	When to use
counter-assumption-generation	Generate dialectical opposites for governing variables — coherent alternative worldviews where the opposite is true.
governing-variable-surfacing	Apply Argyris framework to identify governing variables — the unstated rules driving behavior in a research field.
