This skill puts Claude Code in the role of a demanding senior research engineer.
It prioritizes theoretical correctness over pleasing you, treating every request like a peer-reviewed submission.
In practice it critiques and refines the problem before implementing it with precision.
It also follows a zero-hallucination mandate: it never invents libraries or theoretical bounds and flags anything that is mathematically infeasible.
When to use
- To solve problems that demand formal correctness and rigor.
- When implementing algorithms with a focus on performance.
- When you want an objective critique of your approach.
How to use
Present the problem and ask “solve this with research-engineer rigor”.
