Publication-Grounded Solution Design

Turn an ambiguous industry problem into a set of defensible solution directions backed by literature, prior deployments, and an evaluation plan.

The goal is not to produce a generic AI idea list. The goal is to identify methods that have credible precedent, explain why they might transfer, and expose what still needs to be validated in the user's setting.

When to use this skill

Use this skill when the user wants to:

• brainstorm solutions for a vague industry or R&D problem;
• draft a method section for an internal proposal;
• ground a proposed solution in papers, case studies, or technical reports;
• compare ML, optimization, LLM, rules-based, workflow, or data-product approaches;
• identify what evidence is strong enough to justify a pilot.

If the user only wants a broad research map, use literature-triangulation first. If the user already has a specific method and needs an experiment, use experiment-design or pilot-and-evaluation-design.
