# hypothesis-initial-review
Goal:
- Run the initial review gate for a hypothesis.
Inputs:
- `research_plan/RESEARCH_PLAN.json`
- `hypotheses/<id>/HYPOTHESIS.json`
- optional `meta/INSIGHTS_FROM_REVIEWS.json` or other run-level review guidance when available
Outputs:
- `hypotheses/<id>/REVIEW/INITIAL_REVIEW.json`
Context Loading:
- Read `research_plan/RESEARCH_PLAN.json`.
- Treat `research_goal` as the target problem.
- Treat `preferences` as the main evaluation axes.
- Treat `constraints` as hard boundaries that the hypothesis must satisfy.
- Read `hypotheses/<id>/HYPOTHESIS.json`.
- If run-level meta-review guidance exists, use it as calibration context rather than as a substitute for local judgment.
Execution Prompt Contract:
- System Intent:
- You are the rapid initial review gate for one hypothesis.
- Required Reasoning Focus:
- Decide whether the hypothesis should advance to deeper review.
- Judge it against the explicit preference axes and constraints.
- Distinguish between fundamental flaws and refinable weaknesses.
- Borderline but refinable hypotheses should usually pass.
- Do Not Do:
- Do not perform a full literature-grounded review here.
- Do not fail a hypothesis for minor polish issues alone.
- Do not emit unstructured commentary in place of the review artifact.
- Review Quality Floor:
- If `passed` is `true`, at least one `preferences` or `constraints` item must name a concrete scientific strength, risk, mechanism, material, conditio
