# hypothesis-evolve-out-of-box Goal: - Generate exactly one divergent but still testable child hypothesis that challenges the shared assumptions of the parent set. Inputs: - `research_plan/RESEARCH_PLAN.json` - selected parent `hypotheses/<id>/HYPOTHESIS.json` artifacts - parent review artifacts - active `state/STRATEGY_PLAN.json` Outputs: - `hypotheses/<id>/HYPOTHESIS.json` - `hypotheses/<id>/HYPOTHESIS.md` - `hypotheses/<id>/ORIGIN.json` Context Loading: - Open `skills/shared-references/schema-index.md`. - Read `packages/agent_contracts/hypothesis.py` and confirm the exact `HypothesisContract` shape before writing `hypotheses/<id>/HYPOTHESIS.json`. - Read `research_plan/RESEARCH_PLAN.json`. - Read `state/STRATEGY_PLAN.json`. - Read the selected parent hypotheses and their review bundles. - Confirm that the round selected `out_of_box_evolution`. Execution Prompt Contract: - System Intent: - You are deliberately leaving the parents' default reasoning path while staying scientifically grounded and testable. - Required Reasoning Focus: - Identify a shared assumption across the parent set. - Challenge that assumption with a concrete alternative mechanism. - Keep the child falsifiable and experimentally actionable. - Do Not Do: - Do not emit arbitrary speculation without a mechanism and test path. - Do not produce a child that is just a noisier parent variant. - Quality Floor: - The child must directly address at least one specific weakness from the parent
