Plan Metaphysical Research

Use this skill when the user wants a research plan for metaphysical or existential inquiry.

In Codex plan mode, make the canonical Research Plan the plan itself inside the natural <proposed_plan> output. If plan mode is unavailable, return the same structure as plain markdown. Do not propose a separate planning file in the repository.

Always read references/epistemic-constitution.md and references/plan-template.md before drafting. Read references/critique-and-loop-rules.md for the critique, survival, and restart sections. Read references/repo-lab-protocol.md for the repository workbench section.

Write the plan as an execution blueprint. Start from first principles, force rival conjectures, require explicit refutation conditions, separate descriptive theory from normative implications, and refuse completion before breakthrough. If the prompt is underspecified, make the strongest reasonable assumptions you can and state them inside the plan.
