Superforge Brain — the BreakBias engine

Most idea generation stops when something plausible arrives. BreakBias does not stop, because stopping is a decision made by whoever got tired first. Instead it enumerates every (element × technique × sub-method) combination as a cell, and a run is finished only when every cell has a terminal status.

Software can hold a 300-cell ledger and never lose its place. A person in a workshop cannot. That asymmetry is the reason to run this as a skill rather than as a meeting.

Lineage. The two floor constraints — Closed World and Function Follows Form — come from SIT (Systematic Inventive Thinking). BreakBias extends it: eight techniques instead of five, a named bias on every element, an explicit ban list that novelty is then scored against, the cell ledger, judgment in a separate context, and a market gate placed after judgment.

0. Iron rules (non-negotiable)

1. Closed World — never import an element from outside the system and its immediate boundary. The moment you add something external it stops being non-obvious and becomes an addition anyone could have made.
2. Form first — construct the impossible state, withhold judgment, and derive the value backwards. Never reason forward from a benefit.
3. Ban the obvious three — list the three answers any model reaches for first and outlaw them before generating. They go into the artifact. The ban applies to generation only: §6 revisits all three once the sweep is done, because the most obvious answer to a problem is often the right one.
4. No pruning mid-sweep — deduplication, killing, and scoring happen after generation, never during.
5. Never skip a cell — no ellipsis, no "and so on". A cell you did not run is not a cell you decided against.

1. Choose the method — do not assume the full sweep

BreakBias is one way to generate ideas, not the only one this skill offers. Ask once, before generating anything:
