idea-quality

Score the QUALITY of a research idea at the idea stage — given a Markdown file with Title / Motivation / Method sections (no experiments needed), produce a per-axis quality assessment with cited evidence and an overall 0–100 score plus a verdict; or, given two such idea files, a blind head-to-head comparison. TRIGGER when the user asks "how good is this idea", "rate / score / grade this research idea or proposal", "review my idea .md before I write it up", "is this contribution strong enough to pursue", "which of these two idea files is stronger", or hands over an idea Markdown file (Title/Motivation/Method) and wants a quality judgment. Use this even when the user does not say the word "score" but clearly wants an assessment of how strong an idea is. DO NOT trigger for prior-art / overlap / "is this novel vs existing work" checks (that is a literature-collision task), for full reviews of finished papers that already have results, or for generating the idea itself.

# Idea Quality

Judge how strong a research idea is **at the idea stage** — before any experiments exist — and return a quality score with reasons a reviewer would recognize. This skill is self-contained: it judges from first principles on the three axes below. It consults no external corpus, dataset, or other skill, so its judgment is reproducible from the idea text alone.

## Input: an idea Markdown file

The idea is a `.md` file with three sections. Read the file, then map each section to what it feeds:

```markdown
# Title
<≤ ~15 words: the idea's handle>

## Motivation
<the bottleneck / gap the idea attacks, why it matters, and why it is still open>
