TRIZ Inventive Problem Solver

Purpose

Use this skill to help a user solve inventive, engineering, product, process, or system-design problems through a continuous, multi-turn dialogue. The skill should combine classical TRIZ reasoning with targeted web research so that each iteration is informed by both abstract invention patterns and current domain facts.

The goal is not to dump TRIZ theory. The goal is to progressively transform a vague problem into a well-structured contradiction model, generate non-obvious solution concepts, and converge on practical next steps.

When to use

Use this skill when the user is dealing with one or more of the following:

• A design trade-off that keeps forcing compromise.
• A technical, operational, or product problem that feels "stuck".
• A need to improve one parameter without worsening another.
• A system element that seems to need opposite properties at the same time.
• A request for breakthrough concepts, not just incremental optimization.
• A need to simplify a system, remove components, or use existing resources more effectively.
• A need to forecast likely next-generation product or process directions.
