This page is the public map of the ideas behind the Skills. It is intentionally a distilled map, not an export of any private knowledge base, customer work, operating memory, or internal playbook.
Publish a method when it meets all four tests:
| Method | Public shape | Best paired Skill | Evidence to add before promoting |
|---|---|---|---|
| Task contract first | Convert vague work into goal, context, boundary, authority, evidence, and stop signal | dayan-wenzhen |
more accepted and rejected contract fixtures |
| Value test loop | Separate interesting output from a result someone would actually use, cite, adopt, or pay for | dayan-autoresearch-agent |
public experiment templates and false-positive examples |
| False-positive control | Treat fluent output, pretty UI, and passing structure checks as insufficient evidence | dayan-adversarial-reviewer |
promoted in docs/methods/false-positive-control.md with a public review fixture |
| Weak-signal radar | Turn scattered external signals into hypotheses, not conclusions | dayan-industry-research |
source-level evidence packets and scoring rubrics |
| Project operating system | Run complex work as topology, wave, approval, evidence receipt, and archive | dayan-plan |
sample task graph and recovery fixtures |
| Business evidence loop | Convert content, demos, and repository work into measurable external signals | dayan-ai-seo |
adoption-report template with non-claim boundaries |
| Audience-clean delivery | Keep reader-facing artifacts free of production notes, placeholders, hidden instructions, and internal roles | dayan-content-production |
more fixture pairs for clean vs rejected output |
| Tool-before-agent | Turn deterministic checks into scripts before asking an agent to remember them | dayan-hook-factory |
promoted in docs/methods/tool-before-agent.md with a verifier-plan fixture |
| Human authority ledger | Name the actions that remain human-controlled before a workflow starts | dayan-agent-designer |
promoted in docs/methods/human-authority-ledger.md with an authority-ledger fixture |
| Reusable asset pipeline | Package artifact, validator, evidence, handoff, version, and retirement rule together | dayan-marketplace-publishing |
release examples where validators catch bad packages |
The current method-card set is in docs/methods.md. It covers complexity, decomposition, adversarial validation, evidence chains, reversible action, falsifiable framing, human authority, completion levels, project harnesses, delivery assets, simple communication, audience-clean artifacts, tool-before-agent, false-positive control, and human authority ledgers.
