generate-provocation

Purpose

Generate a deliberate pattern-breaking perturbation that opens alternative reasoning paths.

Input contract

required: [target_pattern, provocation_mode, boundary_conditions]
optional: [random_stimulus_pool, intensity, safety_constraints]
constraints: [provocation must be traceable to the target pattern]

Procedure

1. Describe the dominant pattern and its protected assumptions. 2. Apply the selected mode: PO, reversal, negation, random stimulus, exaggeration, or distortion. 3. Record the altered elements and generated questions. 4. Return candidate directions without premature selection.

Output contract

produces: [provocations, altered_assumptions, generated_questions, candidate_directions]
delta_fields: [findings, hypothesis_updates, open_questions]

Quality gates

  • Mode and intensity are recorded for each provocation.
  • At least one altered assumption and one testable question accompany every item.
  • Provocations remain within declared safety and scope boundaries.

Parameterization

Caller supplies target schema, provocation modes, intensity scale, stimulus pool, and boundary constraints.

Failure and counterexamples

Reject random outputs with no relation to the target or ideas presented as validated conclusions.
