Invention Structuring Structure the invention into a formal disclosure based on: $ARGUMENTS Adapted from the refinement pattern in /research refine for patent invention decomposition. Constants REVIEWER MODEL = gpt 6 astra — External reviewer for invention decomposition validation MAX REFINEMENT ROUNDS = 3 — Maximum structuring iterations Inputs 1. Invention description from $ARGUMENTS 2. patent/INVENTION BRIEF.md if exists 3. patent/PRIOR ART REPORT.md — prior art landscape 4. patent/NOVELTY ASSESSMENT.md — novelty analysis Shared References Load ../shared references/patent writing principles.md for the Problem Solution Advantage framework and claimable subject matter guidelines. Workflow Step 1: Problem Solution Advantage Framework Structure the invention using the universal patent framework: Technical Problem (要解决的技术问题) : Derived from prior art deficiencies identified in NOVELTY ASSESSMENT.md Must be a specific, technical problem (not a commercial or social problem) Statement format: "The technical problem to be solved is how to [specific technical objective] given [specific technical constraint]." Technical Solution (技术方案) : The invention's specific technical contribution Focus on the mechanism, not the result Must be described at a level that matches the intended claim scope Identify which features are known vs. inventive Advantages (有益效果) : Measurable or quantifiable improvements over prior art Must result from the inventive features, not just good engineering Include specific technical effects if known (e.g., "reduces processing time by 40%") Step 2: Invention Decomposition Break the invention into three layers: Core Inventive Concept (核心发明构思) : The minimal set of features that make the invention patentable This maps to the independent claim scope Test: if you remove this feature, the invention is no longer novel Supporting Features (支撑性特征) : Features that make the invention work well in practice These become dependent claim material They narrow the scope but add practical value Optional Features (可选特征) : Implementation details, preferred parameters, alternatives These become embodiment material They support broader claim interpretation Step 3: Claimable Subject Matter Identification For the core inventive concept, determine what categories of claims to draft: Category Applicability Content Method/process If invention involves steps Process flow, algorithm, workflow System/apparatus If invention involves components Hardware structure, modules, connections Product If invention is a physical device Shape, structure, composition Computer readable medium If software invention (US) Stored instructions, non transitory medium Product by process If structure is hard to define Product defined by how it is made Step 4: Drawing Plan Plan what figures are needed to support the claims and specification: Figure Type Shows Supports Claim Elements FIG. 1 Block diagram System architecture System claim components FIG. 2 Flowchart Method steps Method claim steps FIG. 3 Sequence diagram Interaction between components Specific implementation details If user has provided figures, reference them here. If figures are missing, note what is needed. Step 5: Dependency Mapping Map feature dependencies to plan the claim hierarchy: Step 6: Cross Model Validation Call REVIEWER MODEL via mcp codex codex with xhigh reasoning: Step 7: Output Write patent/INVENTION DISCLOSURE.md : Key Rules The Problem must come from prior art deficiencies, not from commercial needs. The Solution must describe the technical mechanism, not just the result. The core inventive concept must be the minimum set of features for patentability. Supporting features should be independently valuable each should provide a meaningful technical benefit even if other supporting features are removed. Never invent embodiments that do not correspond to the actual invention or user provided materials. If mcp codex codex is not available, skip cross model validation and note it in the output.
