# SCAMPER Transformation

Apply the 7 SCAMPER operators systematically to transform existing solutions into novel variants.

## HARD-GATE

Cannot exit strategy until ≥80% of each budget line is consumed OR yield targets are met with justification for remaining budget.

## Available Tactics

| Tactic | Role |
|--------|------|
| combination-mapping | Enumerate operator × component combinations |

## Available SOPs

| SOP | Role |
|-----|------|
| scamper-divergence | Execute all 7 operators, self-select best 2-3 |
| recombination-generation | Reassemble SCAMPER outputs into coherent proposals |
| structural-synthesis | Synthesize final transformation report |

## Execution Guidance

1. **Identify target**: Select the existing solution/system to transform
2. **Apply operators**: Run scamper-divergence SOP on the target
3. **Evaluate variants**: Score each variant for novelty and feasibility
4. **Combine**: Use combination-mapping to find multi-operator combinations
5. **Synthesize**: Produce structured output via structural-synthesis
