Introduce a structured alternative treatment for failure regimes so rare cases and recovery behavior are explicit without turning the method into generic control scaffolding.
Install
npx vskill@latest install opendfm/xcientist/alternative-path-contrastSKILL.md
defect_tags
- brittle_single_path
- rare_regime_failure
- weak_fallback_behavior
guardrails
- Limit the number of new paths; one alternative path should address one concrete failure regime.
- State the observable condition that separates the primary regime from the alternative treatment.
- Validate the regimes where the alternative treatment should dominate or recover failure.
