Analyzes problem into six major categories using Ishikawa decomposition

  • Identifies root causes of a problem by categorizing it into Methodology, Data, Theory, Measurement, Researchers, and Environment.
  • Depends on context and problem statement for analysis.
  • Uses fishbone diagram to visualize and organize the six categories.
  • Provides categorized insights as output.

# Ishikawa Decomposition

Multi-factor causal decomposition via fishbone diagram.

## Execution

Subagent — spawned via subagent-spawning/spawn-agent.

## Budget

One unit = one Ishikawa decomposition pass.

ablation-executionRemove components one by one from a system, record the response/impact of each removal.
abp-vulnerability-classificationClassify assumptions on 2 axes — load-bearing (how much conclusion depends on it) × vulnerable (how likely to be false). Focuses attention on High-Load × High-Vulnerable quadrant.
abstraction-extractionExtract abstract principles from concrete domain cases. Strips domain-specific details to reveal transferable mechanisms.
abstraction-ladderPerform bisociation at multiple abstraction levels
abstraction-ladderingMove between concrete and abstract framings — 3 levels up (Why?) and 3 levels down (How?) to find the most productive research level.
abstraction-to-designAbstract biological principle to design principle. Bridge from biology to engineering.
