SkillDev tools

Lets your agent map out the conditions where a claim or method stays valid, combining test results into one boundary statement.

Then ask your AI: use the construct-validity-envelope skill

About this skill

Synthesize multi-axis breakpoints into a multidimensional statement of where a claim/method remains valid.

The instructions your AI receives, as published by yogsoth-ai/de-anthropocentric-research-engine in skills/construct-validity-envelope/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Purpose

Synthesize multi-axis breakpoints into a multidimensional statement of where a claim or method remains valid.

Input contract

required: [claim_or_method, axis_results, validity_criteria]
optional: [boundary_interactions, uncertainty_model, extrapolation_policy]
constraints: [each boundary is tied to an axis result and evidence]

Procedure

  1. Align axis scales, directions, and validity labels.
  2. Combine breakpoint regions and inspect interaction effects.
  3. Mark supported, uncertain, and invalid regions.
  4. Emit the envelope with extrapolation warnings and monitoring observables.

Output contract

produces: [validity_envelope, boundary_conditions, uncertain_regions, monitoring_observables]
delta_fields: [findings, uncertainties, open_questions]

Quality gates

  • No envelope boundary lacks an axis-level witness.
  • Interactions are reported when independent-axis combination is unjustified.
  • Extrapolated regions are labeled as such.

Parameterization

Caller supplies axis schema, breakpoint format, validity criteria, interaction policy, and uncertainty representation.

Failure and counterexamples

Reject envelopes inferred from one axis, unsupported extrapolation, or boundaries without observables.
