idea-direction-generator

Generate a compact pool of discussion-worthy research directions from the signal table, writing `output/trace/IDEA_DIRECTION_POOL.md`. **Trigger**: idea direction pool, brainstorm directions, research directions, 研究方向池, brainstorm pool. **Use when**: you already have a signal table and want a small, non-isomorphic set of candidate directions. **Skip if**: `output/trace/IDEA_DIRECTION_POOL.md` already exists and is refined. **Network**: none. **Guardrail**: no invented papers; directions must stay anchored to the current signal table and core set.

Idea Direction Generator

Goal: turn a signal table into a modest pool of discussion-worthy research directions.

This skill should favor:

distinct thesis programs rather than same-shape confound cards,
short scan-friendly titles,
explicit contribution shapes and quick falsifiers,
distinct research lenses,
academically meaningful tensions,
low-template cards,
and lightweight first probes.

Script

Quick Start

python .codex/skills/idea-direction-generator/scripts/run.py --workspace workspaces/<ws>
