# Embodiment Description
Write detailed embodiments for: **$ARGUMENTS**
Embodiments describe HOW to make and use the invention -- they are the patent equivalent of experiment sections, but describe the invention rather than evaluating it empirically.
## Constants
- `MIN_EMBODIMENTS = 1` — At least one complete embodiment required
- `MAX_EMBODIMENTS = 3` — Practical limit; more embodiments strengthen enablement
- `EMBODIMENT_STYLE = detailed` — `detailed` (full working example) or `outline` (sketch)
- `REFERENCE_NUMERAL_PREFIX = 100` — Starting reference numeral for first figure's components
## Inputs
1. `patent/INVENTION_DISCLOSURE.md` — invention decomposition (core/supporting/optional features)
2. `patent/CLAIMS.md` — drafted claims that the embodiments must support
3. User-provided figures (if any) in any directory
4. `patent/figures/numeral_index.md` if it exists (from `/figure-description`)
## Workflow
### Step 1: Plan Embodiments
For each claim category (method, system, etc.), plan at least one embodiment:
| Embodiment | Covers Claims | Type | Key Variations |
|-----------|--------------|------|----------------|
| 1 | Claims 1, X | Best mode / preferred | [primary implementation] |
| 2 | Claims 2, 3 | Alternative | [different parameters/materials] |
| 3 | Claims 4, 5 | Additional alternative | [different configuration] |
### Step 2: Write Each Embodiment
For each embodiment, write a detailed description following this structure:
**Opening paragraph**:
"In o
