analyze-scaling-regime

Purpose

Analyze how conclusions or performance change across scale and identify regime shifts, saturation, scaling-law behavior, or frontier transitions.

Input contract

required: [scale_variable, outcome_series, observation_context]
optional: [candidate_scaling_laws, uncertainty_model, suspected_breakpoints]
constraints: [scale units and outcome direction must be explicit; observations remain ordered]

Procedure

1. Normalize scale and outcome definitions while retaining original units.
2. Plot or tabulate local behavior and fit only caller-authorized within-regime models.
3. Locate qualitative shifts, saturation, or frontier transitions and test their stability.
4. Report regime boundaries, mechanism hypotheses, and extrapolation limits.
