Individual skill
discovery-toolbox
A routed repertoire of ~90 scientific thinking operators for biological research agents - visual reasoning, detectability and information budgets, search reframing, causal identification, competing explanations, observation and selection processes, pipeline artifact diagnosis, effort allocation, and confirmation hygiene. Use when a screen returns null or weak results, a result looks too good, search has stagnated, a causal claim is being made, an anomaly needs explaining, a pipeline is suspected, or a lead is about to be escalated. Load the smallest relevant section, activate 1-3 operators, then return to the research loop.

# DISCOVERY TOOLBOX
**Load on demand, never wholesale.** Route to the smallest relevant section. Usually activate
**1–3 operators**, execute them, then return to the research loop.
The toolbox is a repertoire, not a checklist.
---
## A · VISUAL REASONING
**Trigger:** shape, heterogeneity, ranking, trajectories, subsets, or individual observations may matter.
- **RAW + EXTREMES** — inspect representative raw units, argmax/argmin, and matched non-hits.
