The greatest breakthroughs don't come from thinking harder within existing frames — they come from shattering the frame entirely and discovering what lies beyond.
Divergent idea generation engine for autonomous research pipelines.
Creative Ideation is not a brainstorming helper. It is a systematic creativity machine that transforms research hypotheses into diverse solution spaces via 10 parallel campaigns spanning structural, analogical, destructive, and combinatorial methods. It generates — it does not converge, validate, or implement.
- 🏗️ Structural deconstruction — SCAMPER, TRIZ contradiction resolution, component surgery, and trimming to reshape existing solutions
- 🌉 Cross-domain discovery — bisociation networks, analogical transfer, and design-by-analogy to import solutions from unrelated fields
- 💥 Assumption destruction — axiom negation, reverse brainstorming, sacred cow hunting, and anti-benchmarking to break paradigmatic constraints
- 🦎 Biomimicry — Design Spiral, BioTRIZ, organism discovery, and biological strategy extraction for nature-inspired solutions
- 🔮 Synectics — Gordon's four analogy types (direct, personal, symbolic, fantasy) with excursion methods
- 📐 Morphological exploration — Zwicky box, cross-consistency analysis, and general morphological analysis for systematic combination enumeration
- 🎲 Lateral thinking — de Bono PO provocations, random entry, concept fan, and movement extraction
- 🧬 Combinatorial creativity — Fauconnier-Turner conceptual blending, recombination architecture, and forced connections
- 🎭 Perspective forcing — Six Hats rotation, role-based ideation, temporal projection, and stakeholder simulation
- 📊 Systematic enumeration — benchmark sweep, method-problem matrix, failure taxonomy, and factorial ideation
Each campaign is a self-contained creative domain with its own strategies, tactics, and subagent SOPs. The engine enforces quantitative budget floors via State Ledgers and HARD-GATEs — creativity is systematic, not random. Saturation detection prevents infinite loops while ensuring sufficient exploration depth.
The engine STOPS at idea generation. Convergence, validation, and implementation belong to downstream repos.
