hypothesis-gen

hypothesis-gen is a Literature review & citations skill for AI agents, published by gaasher in the Agent-Loop-Skills repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates hypothesis-gen D (66/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Use when the user wants to generate and literature-vet a pool of novel, testable research hypotheses for a question or domain. A multi-agent loop: a Generator proposes candidate hypotheses, a LiteratureScout grounds each in real retrieved literature (already known? closest prior work? what gap does it fill?), and a Judge scores them against a fixed rubric and keeps the strong, non-duplicate ones; rounds repeat — mutating toward the open gaps — until fresh rounds stop adding keepers. Not for sharpening or decomposing a research question (no grounding/scoring there), and not for grading an existing written proposal against the literature.
