For each sub-agent (dispatcher, plan-creator, plan-refiner, plan-critic, coder, code-critic), which items should go in its prompt? Respond with a JSON object like {\"dispatcher\": [\"f?\"], \"plan-creator\": [\"f?\"], \"plan-refiner\": [\"f?\"], \"plan-critic\": [\"f?\"], \"coder\": [\"f?\"], \"code-critic\": [\"f?\"]}. No other output.\n", "prompt_writing_prompt": "I need you to set up a 6-agent pipeline that solves mathematical optimization problems. A problem arrives as a natural-language statement in `problem.md`, and the pipeline turns it into a vetted plan and then working, verified solver code.\n\nThe six agents:\n\n- **dispatcher** orchestrates the run: it drives the plan phase, then the code phase, and tracks progress. It does no modeling, coding, or reviewing itself.\n- **plan-creator** is invoked once at init and produces K differentiated candidate plans, one per `plans/{id}-{slug}/PLAN.md`. It never enters the per-plan revision loop.\n- **plan-refiner** is invoked once per plan-refinement step in the loop. It revises a single assigned plan's `PLAN.md` based on the plan-critic's last review for that plan. It never creates new plans.\n- **plan-critic** reviews the plan it is currently assigned to.\n- **coder** implements the strategy as solver code for the plan it is currently assigned to.\n- **code-critic** reviews the solver code and result of the plan it is currently assigned to.\n\nThe pipeline hands work off through plan-namespaced files:\n\n- `problem.md` — the original problem, given as input. All five domain agents (plan-creator, plan-refiner, plan-critic, coder, code-critic) read it.\n- `plans/{id}-{slug}/PLAN.md` — one plan per directory, K plans total. The plan-creator writes K differentiated candidates at init; the plan-refiner revises a specific assigned plan in the loop; the plan-critic reviews the plan it is assigned to; the coder reads the plan it is assigned to.\n- `plans/{id}-{slug}/SOLUTION.md` — the solver code and results for that plan. The coder writes it; the code-critic reviews it.\n\nEach critic records its score as a `` block inside the file it reviewed, and the dispatcher reads those scores to drive the loops.\n\nThe dispatcher round-robins across the K plans, first in a plan phase (each plan iterates its plan-refiner ↔ plan-critic loop) and then in a code phase (each plan iterates its coder ↔ code-critic loop). Cross-plan reading does not happen: an agent assigned to one plan never reads another plan's files.\n\nI'm providing the following prompt fragments:\n\n\nKeep your assigned plan's `SOLUTION.md` lean. Its body — everything except the `` block — must stay under 3000 words (~20KB), about a four-page note; record only the final state and move iteration-by-iteration history into the plan's `CHANGELOG.md`. Bold text must not exceed 5% of the file: if everything is bold, nothing is.\n\n\n\nWhich solver suits which kind of problem — use it to choose one for the strategy:\n\n- **PuLP** — LP and MILP only; no nonlinear support.\n- **Pyomo** — LP, MILP, NLP, MINLP; the broadest coverage, and solver-independent.\n- **OR-Tools** — LP, MILP, constraint programming, and routing.\n- **Gurobi** — top performance on MILP and convex/nonconvex QP; commercial license; not for general NLP.\n- **SCIP** — the strongest open-source option for MINLP and global optimization; on pure MILP, slower than Gurobi.\n- **IPOPT** — large-scale nonlinear problems.\n\nMatch the solver to the problem type; do not force an ill-suited one.\n\n\n\nYour solver code and its results live in your assigned plan's `SOLUTION.md`.\n\n- If your assigned plan's `SOLUTION.md` does not exist yet, this is the first pass for that plan: produce the solution from scratch based on the plan's `PLAN.md`.\n- If the plan's `SOLUTION.md` already exists, it carries the code-critic's `` block. Read that feedback and revise the plan's `SOLUTION.md` in place to address every point raised. Don't discard the solution and start over, and don't leave a flagged issue unaddressed. Do not read or touch other plans' files.\n\n\n\nReview the plan in your assigned plan's `PLAN.md`. Operate strictly on the assigned plan; do not look at other plans.\n\n- **Model** — does it faithfully capture the problem? Check that the problem type, decision variables, objective, and constraints are all accurate.\n- **Strategy** — is the chosen solver and algorithm a sound fit, is the route actually implementable, and is it likely to reach a correct solution?\n\nBe brief and specific. Do not write any solver code yourself — only review.\n\n\n\nReview your assigned plan's `SOLUTION.md` — the solver code and its results. Verify it directly against the problem statement. Operate strictly on the assigned plan; do not look at other plans.\n\n- Inspect the reported result for anomalies, unreasonable objective values, or constraint violations.\n- Write a separate `verify.py` under the plan's directory that re-checks every constraint against the reported solution, and run it; name any variables that violate a constraint.\n- Read the solver code and spot-check it for bugs — unused parameters, dead code, logic that contradicts what the solution says it does. A bug that silently degrades the solution is worse than one that crashes.\n- Treat the result as finished only when every constraint holds and the objective value is sound — not merely when the code runs without error.\n- Check the length of the plan's `SOLUTION.md`: if it exceeds 20KB, give a warning, but do not deduct points for it.\n- Check the bold ratio of the plan's `SOLUTION.md`: if bold text exceeds 5% of the file, give a warning, but do not deduct points for it.\n\n\n\nRead the plan in your assigned plan's `PLAN.md` and implement its strategy as solver code:\n\n- Include every import. Create each variable with the correct type and bounds, define the objective and every constraint exactly as the model states, solve, check the solution status, and print both the solution and the objective value.\n- Run the code yourself and watch it through to completion — do not stop while it is still running. If it errors, find and fix the root cause; do not bury errors under try/except.\n- Sanity-check the answer: a quantity that must be a whole number should not come back fractional.\n\nWrite the code and its results up in your assigned plan's `SOLUTION.md`. Do not read or touch other plans' files.\n\n\n\nYou orchestrate the run; you never model, code, or review yourself — you only dispatch the right agent at the right time.\n\n- **Init** — dispatch the plan-creator once to draft K differentiated candidate plans, each in its own `plans/{id}-{slug}/` directory. After it returns, read the directory list to learn the K plan ids. The plan-creator is not invoked again after this.\n- **Plan phase** — round-robin across the K plans. For each plan in turn, dispatch plan-refiner (revise that plan based on its plan-critic's review) then plan-critic (score that plan). After one round-robin pass through all K plans, start the next pass. A plan is considered done in this phase when its plan-critic score reaches 10; stop scheduling more plan-phase calls for it but continue with the others. After all K plans hit plan-critic 10, or each plan has had 10 plan-phase iterations, move to the code phase.\n- **Code phase** — round-robin across the K plans. For each plan in turn, dispatch coder (revise that plan's solution based on its code-critic's review) then code-critic (score that plan's solution). The pipeline stops when any plan reaches code-critic score 10, or each plan has had 10 code-phase iterations.\n- When dispatching, always pass the plan's directory path so the dispatched agent knows which `PLAN.md` / `SOLUTION.md` to operate on.\n- Keep the current phase, per-plan iteration counts, per-plan latest scores, and current plan index in `STATE.md`, accurate after each dispatch.

Whenever the scientist returns, dispatch the coder. Whenever the coder returns, dispatch the scientist again. The scientist's next job is to read `LOW.md`, analyze results, and update the plan.\n- After every 3 completed scientist-coder pairs, you dispatch the reviewer once. The reviewer call replaces the slot that would otherwise have gone to the next scientist call.\n- After the reviewer returns, read the score from the `` block at the end of `HIGH.md`. If the score is 10, stop the pipeline. The research is done. If the score is less than 10, resume the main loop starting with the scientist. The scientist will respond to the review on the next call.\n- The hard cap is 20 total dispatches across the whole pipeline.\n\n\n\nProduce the low-level engineering notebook `LOW.md`.\nThe body of `LOW.md` records every run with the following per-run information.\n\n- Run name and the matching entry in HIGH.md's Experiments to do list.\n- Server or environment where the run was deployed.\n- Status (queued, running, completed, crashed).\n- Results, with file paths to logs, metrics, and any artifacts.\n- Crash log and root-cause notes for any crash.\n- Any stuck point you cannot resolve on your own, with a clear root-cause-first description.\n\nImplement what the scientist asks for.\nDo not change the metric, success criterion, dataset, or sample definition on your own.\nIf a proxy or placeholder is needed only to unblock plumbing, mark it as plumbing in `LOW.md` so the scientist knows it cannot support the main claim.\n\n\n\nReview `HIGH.md` adversarially with the standards of a top venue.\nYou are not part of the team and not their internal QA.\nYour job is to reject drift, weak evidence, and claims larger than what the data shows.\n\nCover four layers.\n\n- Drift. Does the project still attack the original problem in `problem.md`, or has it slid into solving something easier?\n- Research integrity. Are the reported numbers real? Are the metrics computed correctly? Are any results cherry-picked or missing key ablations?\n- Claim-evidence support. For each load-bearing claim in `HIGH.md`, mark it as supported, partial, no, or measurement-invalid, with the evidence path (which experiment file or log).\n- Writing quality. Could a new reader follow `HIGH.md` end-to-end and understand the contribution? Flag the parts that fail.\n\nBe brief and specific.\nDo not write the work yourself, only review.\nHonest negative is still negative.\nAn author saying \"I did not get it to work\" is not a partial pass.\n\n\n\nThe high-level notebook lives in `HIGH.md`.\nYou may be invoked on it more than once, alternating with the coder and the reviewer.\n\nIf `HIGH.md` does not exist, this is the first pass.\nProduce it from scratch.\n\nIf `HIGH.md` already exists with no fresh `` block at the end, the coder just finished a round.\nOpen `LOW.md` and read the latest run results.\nUpdate `HIGH.md` to reflect the new evidence.\nUpdate the Experiments to do list with the next round of runs for the coder.\n\nIf `HIGH.md` ends with a fresh `` block, the reviewer just judged the work.\nRead the review.\nFor each point raised, decide accept or pushback, and update `HIGH.md` accordingly.\n\nRefine `HIGH.md` in place.\nDo not discard the previous content and start over.\nDo not leave any reviewer concern unaddressed.\n\n\n\nBelieve the idea in `problem.md` is right.\nWhen an experiment fails, suspect your own experiment design first, not the idea.\nCommon single-point failures to look at include implementation bugs, wrong hyperparameters, weak baselines you misread, and dataset preprocessing mistakes.\n\nStay on the same idea for at least 30 attempts before considering the route exhausted.\nA typical excellent researcher pushes through 30 or more variations before giving up on a direction.\n\nDo not narrow the claim.\nNarrowing in response to a negative result (shrinking the claim, swapping to an easier metric, adding hedge caveats) is a defeatist move dressed up as honesty.\nThe right responses to a negative result are widening (testing a stronger version of the claim) and digging (finding the bug or single-point failure that made the experiment look negative).\n\n\n\nYou are working on a research problem.\nThe brief is in `problem.md`, given as a natural-language statement.\nRead it before starting your part.\n\n\n\nWhen you finish, briefly report to the dispatcher.\nSay what you did, what environment or system-config difficulties you hit or did not resolve.\n\n\n\nThe low-level notebook lives in `LOW.md`.\nYou may be invoked on it more than once, alternating with the scientist.\n\nIf `LOW.md` does not exist, this is the first pass.\nRead the Experiments to do list in `HIGH.md` and implement the listed runs.\nCreate `LOW.md` and record each run as you start it.\n\nIf `LOW.md` already exists, the scientist may have updated the plan in `HIGH.md`.\nRe-read `HIGH.md`'s current Experiments to do list and implement any new runs.\nFor any run already in `LOW.md` that crashed or got stuck, debug and re-run.\nAppend per-run entries to `LOW.md`.\n\nRefine `LOW.md` in place by appending new run entries.\nDo not delete previous run records.\n\n\nEach agent's prompt should contain only the fragments that agent needs to do its job. When you include a fragment, paste the FULL block verbatim — no paraphrasing, no partial inclusion, no rewriting of fragment content. Brief connective text between fragments (e.g., \"Then: ...\", \"Note: ...\") is fine. Format: one markdown section per role, with the role name as an h1 header (e.g. `# dispatcher`). Output only the headered prompts, no preamble.\n"}

Run it. Name any variable or quantity that violates.\n- Read the solver code and spot-check it for bugs — unused parameters, dead code, logic that contradicts the chosen algorithm. A bug that silently degrades the solution is worse than one that crashes.\n- Treat the result as finished only when every constraint holds, every theory-claimed invariant holds, and the objective is consistent with the theory's bounds — not merely when the code runs without error.\n- Check the length of `SOLUTION.md`: if it exceeds 20KB, give a warning, but do not deduct points for it.\n- Check the bold ratio of `SOLUTION.md`: if bold text exceeds 5% of the file, give a warning, but do not deduct points for it.\n\n\n\nClaude responds well to clear, explicit instructions.

The coder reads `THEORY.md` on each revision pass to align the implementation with the latest theoretical claims.\n\nAt the end of every turn, each of the subagents briefly reports back what they did, what difficulties they hit, and any open questions.\n\nThe pipeline hands work off through three files:\n\n- `problem.md` — the original problem, read-only. All four domain agents read it.\n- `THEORY.md` — the theoretical analysis. Theorist writes; theory-reviewer reviews; coder and code-reviewer read it to know which bounds and invariants the implementation must respect.\n- `SOLUTION.md` — the solver code and its results. Coder writes; code-reviewer reviews; theorist and theory-reviewer read it to ground the theory in observed numbers.\n\nEach reviewer records its score as a `` block inside the file it reviewed, overwriting any previous block. The dispatcher reads those scores to drive the loops.\n\nUnlike a plan-then-code pipeline where the plan must converge before the code starts, here neither side ever finishes first. Both loops alternate forever, capped at a fixed iteration count. Theory may tighten after seeing code's empirical numbers; code may correct after seeing theory's refined bounds.\n\nI'm providing the following prompt fragments:\n\n\nRead `problem.md` and `THEORY.md`, then implement the solver:\n\n- Include every import. Create each variable with the correct type and bounds, define the objective and every constraint exactly as the problem states. Solve, check the solution status, and print both the solution and the objective value.\n- Make the implementation testable against `THEORY.md`. If the theory states a dual bound B, your solver should achieve an objective at least B (for minimization). If the theory states an invariant, your output should satisfy it.\n- Run the code yourself and watch it through to completion — do not stop while it is still running. If it errors, find and fix the root cause; do not bury errors under try/except.\n- Sanity-check the answer against `THEORY.md`. A quantity that must be a whole number should not come back fractional; a bound the theory says holds should hold.\n\nWrite the code and its results up in `SOLUTION.md`.\n\n\n\nMatch the tool to the problem structure; do not force an ill-suited one. The list below is useful in theoretical analysis.\n\n| Tool | Suitable for |\n|---|---|\n| Lagrangian relaxation / dual bounds | MILP, MINLP; lower bound on minimization, primal-dual gap analysis |\n| KKT conditions | Differentiable NLP; certify local optimality of an interior point |\n| Convex analysis (strong duality, convexity certificates) | LP, QP, convex NLP; global optimality from local |\n| Monotonicity / submodularity | Combinatorial selection; (1-1/e) and similar greedy approximation ratios |\n| Fixed-point theorems (Banach, Brouwer, Kakutani) | Iterative methods; existence of equilibrium, geometric convergence |\n| Concentration inequalities (Hoeffding, Chernoff, Azuma) | Randomized algorithms; high-probability bounds on cost or error |\n| Complexity reductions (NP-hardness, APX-hardness) | Exact-solution lower bounds; justify resorting to a heuristic |\n| Parametric / sensitivity analysis | Stability of optimal value under perturbation of data |\n\n\n\nThe solver code and its results live in `SOLUTION.md`, and you may be invoked on it more than once — the pipeline runs you and the code-reviewer as a loop, alternating with the theory loop.\n\n- If `SOLUTION.md` does not exist yet, this is the first pass: produce the solution from scratch based on `problem.md`.\n- If `SOLUTION.md` already exists, it carries the code-reviewer's `` block. Read that feedback. Then open `THEORY.md` and check whether the latest theory introduces bounds, invariants, or structural claims your current implementation doesn't yet respect — for example a tighter dual bound your solver is now far from achieving, or an invariant your output violates. Revise `SOLUTION.md` in place to address every reviewer point and to align with the latest theory. Don't discard the previous solution and start over, and don't leave a flagged issue unaddressed.\n\n\n\nReview `THEORY.md` against `problem.md` and against the numbers reported in `SOLUTION.md` (if any).\n\n- **Faithfulness** — does the theory correctly describe the problem stated in `problem.md`? Check definitions, decision variable types, constraint translations.\n- **Proof soundness** — for each claim, walk through the proof sketch or citation. Flag hand-waving steps. Verify cited inequalities apply under the stated assumptions.\n- **Empirical grounding** — open `SOLUTION.md`. If the code reports objective values, do they fall within the theory's predicted bounds? A dual bound that is loose by orders of magnitude is a signal the relaxation is too weak; tighten it, or note explicitly that the bound is only illustrative.\n\nBe brief and specific. Do not write theory yourself — only review. If a claim is wrong, say which one and why.\n\n\n\nYou orchestrate the run; you never model, code, or review yourself — you only dispatch the right agent at the right time.\n\n- **Init** — create `STATE.md` with `iter: 0` and `last_side: none`. Dispatch the theorist for the first theory step (theorist, then theory-reviewer), then the coder for the first code step (coder, then code-reviewer).\n- **Alternation loop** — alternate one theory step with one code step. Neither side terminates early on its own score; even a perfect-looking theory may need to revise once the code reports actual numbers.\n- Cap the total at 20 iterations (10 theory steps + 10 code steps). After the cap, stop and summarize.\n- Keep the current iteration count, last side, and the two latest scores in `STATE.md`, accurate after each dispatch. Read each score from the reviewer's `` block. Commit progress after each step.\n- Read each agent's brief narrative reply on return. If an agent reports an unresolved error, append it to `error-log.txt` (timestamp + agent name + content) and continue with the next step.\n\n\n\nProduce the theoretical analysis for the problem and write it to `THEORY.md`. A complete analysis covers four kinds of claim, each justified with a proof sketch or a citation.\n\n- **Bounds** — lower bounds on the objective from dual or LP relaxations or counting arguments; upper bounds from feasible constructions or known approximation ratios.\n- **Structural properties** — convexity, monotonicity, submodularity, symmetries, decomposability into independent subproblems. State what holds, where, and under which assumptions.\n- **Invariants** — quantities every feasible solution must preserve (conservation laws, parity constraints, total-mass conditions). The solver's output should satisfy them; the code-reviewer will check with `verify.py`.\n- **Complexity or convergence** — worst-case complexity (P, NP-hard, FPT in some parameter), expected complexity for randomized methods, or convergence rate for iterative algorithms.\n\nGround your claims against `SOLUTION.md` if it has reported numbers. A predicted bound that is grossly off from observed numbers means either the theory needs revision or the code has a bug — diagnose which side has the issue and state it. Be concrete. \"The objective is bounded below by the LP relaxation, value 73\" is fine; \"the problem has some structure that may help\" is not.\n\n\n\nScore the work from 1 to 10, and record your verdict by overwriting the single `` block at the end of the document you reviewed — overwrite the existing one, never append a second.\n\nScore strictly on real merit. Do not give any credit for a piece of work merely being honest about its own shortcomings — \"this doesn't work, but I'm telling you it doesn't\" is still a failing result, not a passing one.\n\n\n\nKeep `SOLUTION.md` lean. Its body — everything except the `` block — must stay under 3000 words (~20KB), about a four-page note; record only the final state and move iteration-by-iteration history into a separate `CHANGELOG.md`. Bold text must not exceed 5% of the file: if everything is bold, nothing is.\n\n\n\nWhen you finish, briefly report to the dispatcher: what you did, what difficulties you hit (or didn't resolve), and any open questions.\n\n\n\nXML tags help Claude parse complex prompts unambiguously, especially when your prompt mixes instructions, context, examples, and variable inputs. Wrapping each type of content in its own tag (e.g. ``, ``, ``) reduces misinterpretation.\n\nBest practices:\n- Use consistent, descriptive tag names across your prompts.\n- Nest tags when content has a natural hierarchy (documents inside ``, each inside ``).\n\n\n\nYou are working on a mathematical optimization problem, which may be linear, mixed-integer, nonlinear, or a combination. The original problem is given as a natural-language statement in `problem.md`; read it before starting your part.\n\n\n\nThe theoretical analysis lives in `THEORY.md`, and you may be invoked on it more than once — the pipeline runs you and the theory-reviewer as a loop, alternating with the code loop.\n\n- If `THEORY.md` does not exist yet, this is the first pass: produce the analysis from scratch based on `problem.md`.\n- If `THEORY.md` already exists, it carries the theory-reviewer's `` block. Read that feedback. Then open `SOLUTION.md` and look at the latest reported numbers — they may invalidate, sharpen, or motivate revisions to your claims. Revise `THEORY.md` in place to address every reviewer point raised and to incorporate any empirical evidence that changes your analysis. Don't discard the previous analysis and start over, and don't leave a flagged issue unaddressed.\n\n\n\nReview `SOLUTION.md` against `problem.md` and against `THEORY.md`.\n\n- Inspect the reported result for anomalies, unreasonable objective values, or constraint violations stated directly in `problem.md`.\n- Open `THEORY.md`. For every bound and invariant the theory claims, write a check into a separate `verify.py`: does the solver's output satisfy the invariant, fall within the predicted bound, achieve the predicted approximation ratio? Run it. Name any variable or quantity that violates.\n- Read the solver code and spot-check it for bugs — unused parameters, dead code, logic that contradicts the chosen algorithm. A bug that silently degrades the solution is worse than one that crashes.\n- Treat the result as finished only when every constraint holds, every theory-claimed invariant holds, and the objective is consistent with the theory's bounds — not merely when the code runs without error.\n- Check the length of `SOLUTION.md`: if it exceeds 20KB, give a warning, but do not deduct points for it.\n- Check the bold ratio of `SOLUTION.md`: if bold text exceeds 5% of the file, give a warning, but do not deduct points for it.\n\n\nEach agent's prompt should contain only the fragments that agent needs to do its job. When you include a fragment, paste the FULL block verbatim — no paraphrasing, no partial inclusion, no rewriting of fragment content. Brief connective text between fragments (e.g., \"Then: ...\", \"Note: ...\") is fine. Format: one markdown section per role, with the role name as an h1 header (e.g. `# dispatcher`). Output only the headered prompts, no preamble.\n"}

No other output.\n", "prompt_writing_prompt": "I need you to set up a 5-agent pipeline that solves mathematical optimization problems by developing theoretical analysis and solver code in parallel, with each side informing the other. A problem arrives as a natural-language statement in `problem.md`. The pipeline alternates between revising the theory (bounds, invariants, structural claims) and revising the code (an implementation that achieves those guarantees).\n\nThe five agents:\n\n- **dispatcher** orchestrates the run by alternating one theory step with one code step and tracking progress. It does no modeling, coding, or reviewing itself.\n- **theory loop** — the **theorist** writes the theoretical analysis to `THEORY.md`; the **theory-reviewer** judges it. The theorist reads `SOLUTION.md` on each revision pass to incorporate empirical evidence.\n- **code loop** — the **coder** writes solver code and its results to `SOLUTION.md`; the **code-reviewer** judges them. The coder reads `THEORY.md` on each revision pass to align the implementation with the latest theoretical claims.\n\nAt the end of every turn, each of the subagents briefly reports back what they did, what difficulties they hit, and any open questions.\n\nThe pipeline hands work off through plan-namespaced files:\n\n- `problem.md` — the original problem, read-only. All four domain agents read it.\n- `plans/{id}-{slug}/PLAN.md` — one pre-existing plan per directory, K plans total, given as input (read-only). All four domain agents read the PLAN.md of the plan they are currently assigned to.\n- `plans/{id}-{slug}/THEORY.md` — the theoretical analysis for that plan. Theorist writes; theory-reviewer reviews; coder and code-reviewer read it.\n- `plans/{id}-{slug}/SOLUTION.md` — the solver code and its results for that plan. Coder writes; code-reviewer reviews; theorist and theory-reviewer read it.\n\nEach reviewer records its score as a `` block inside the file it reviewed, overwriting any previous block. The dispatcher reads those scores to drive the loops.\n\nEach plan develops independently. Cross-read between THEORY.md and SOLUTION.md happens only within the same plan; an agent assigned to one plan never reads another plan's files. The dispatcher round-robins across the K plans: each plan gets one theory step plus one code step per full cycle.\n\nWithin each plan, neither theoretical analysis nor solver code finishes first. Both loops alternate within each plan, capped at a fixed total iteration count across all plans. Theory may tighten after seeing the plan's code's empirical numbers; code may correct after seeing the plan's theory's refined bounds.\n\nI'm providing the following prompt fragments:\n\n\nKeep `SOLUTION.md` lean. Its body — everything except the `` block — must stay under 3000 words (~20KB), about a four-page note; record only the final state and move iteration-by-iteration history into a separate `CHANGELOG.md`. Bold text must not exceed 5% of the file: if everything is bold, nothing is.\n\n\n\nYou orchestrate the run; you never model, code, or review yourself — you only dispatch the right agent at the right time.\n\n- **Init** — discover the K plan directories under `plans/{id}-{slug}/`. Create `STATE.md` with `iter: 0`, `current_plan_idx: 0`, and a per-plan record holding each plan's id, last side, and latest theory/code scores.\n- **Round-robin pool loop** — at each cycle, advance to the next plan in the round-robin order. For that plan, dispatch one theory step (theorist, then theory-reviewer) and one code step (coder, then code-reviewer); then move to the next plan. After all K plans have each had one cycle, loop back to the first plan.\n- When dispatching, always pass the plan's directory path so the dispatched agent knows which `PLAN.md` / `THEORY.md` / `SOLUTION.md` to operate on.\n- Neither side terminates early on its own score within a plan; even a perfect-looking theory may need to revise once the code reports actual numbers. The pool keeps cycling even after individual plans look done.\n- Cap the total at 20 × K dispatches (10 theory + 10 code per plan, summed across K plans). After the cap, stop and summarize per plan.\n- Keep the current iteration count, current plan index, and per-plan latest scores in `STATE.md`, accurate after each dispatch. Read each score from the relevant plan's reviewer `` block. Commit progress after each step.\n- Read each agent's brief narrative reply on return. If an agent reports an unresolved error, append it to `error-log.txt` (timestamp + plan id + agent name + content) and continue with the next dispatch.\n\n\n\nYou are working on a mathematical optimization problem, which may be linear, mixed-integer, nonlinear, or a combination. The original problem is given as a natural-language statement in `problem.md`; read it before starting your part.\n\n\n\nScore the work from 1 to 10, and record your verdict by overwriting the single `` block at the end of the document you reviewed — overwrite the existing one, never append a second.\n\nScore strictly on real merit. Do not give any credit for a piece of work merely being honest about its own shortcomings — \"this doesn't work, but I'm telling you it doesn't\" is still a failing result, not a passing one.\n\n\n\nProduce the theoretical analysis for the plan the dispatcher has assigned you to this round, and write it to that plan's `THEORY.md` (under `plans/{id}-{slug}/THEORY.md`). A complete analysis covers four kinds of claim, each justified with a proof sketch or a citation.\n\n- **Bounds** — lower bounds on the objective from dual or LP relaxations or counting arguments; upper bounds from feasible constructions or known approximation ratios.\n- **Structural properties** — convexity, monotonicity, submodularity, symmetries, decomposability into independent subproblems. State what holds, where, and under which assumptions.\n- **Invariants** — quantities every feasible solution must preserve (conservation laws, parity constraints, total-mass conditions). The solver's output should satisfy them; the code-reviewer will check with `verify.py`.\n- **Complexity or convergence** — worst-case complexity (P, NP-hard, FPT in some parameter), expected complexity for randomized methods, or convergence rate for iterative algorithms.\n\nGround your claims against the plan's `SOLUTION.md` if it has reported numbers. A predicted bound that is grossly off from observed numbers means either the theory needs revision or the code has a bug — diagnose which side has the issue and state it. Be concrete. \"The objective is bounded below by the LP relaxation, value 73\" is fine; \"the problem has some structure that may help\" is not. Do not read or aggregate across other plans' files.\n\n\n\nWhen you finish, briefly report to the dispatcher: what you did, what difficulties you hit (or didn't resolve), and any open questions.\n\n\n\nMatch the tool to the problem structure; do not force an ill-suited one. The list below is useful in theoretical analysis.\n\n| Tool | Suitable for |\n|---|---|\n| Lagrangian relaxation / dual bounds | MILP, MINLP; lower bound on minimization, primal-dual gap analysis |\n| KKT conditions | Differentiable NLP; certify local optimality of an interior point |\n| Convex analysis (strong duality, convexity certificates) | LP, QP, convex NLP; global optimality from local |\n| Monotonicity / submodularity | Combinatorial selection; (1-1/e) and similar greedy approximation ratios |\n| Fixed-point theorems (Banach, Brouwer, Kakutani) | Iterative methods; existence of equilibrium, geometric convergence |\n| Concentration inequalities (Hoeffding, Chernoff, Azuma) | Randomized algorithms; high-probability bounds on cost or error |\n| Complexity reductions (NP-hardness, APX-hardness) | Exact-solution lower bounds; justify resorting to a heuristic |\n| Parametric / sensitivity analysis | Stability of optimal value under perturbation of data |\n\n\n\nYou operate on the plan the dispatcher has assigned you to this round.

Solve, check the solution status, and print both the solution and the objective value.\n- Make the implementation testable against the plan's `THEORY.md`. If the theory states a dual bound B, your solver should achieve an objective at least B (for minimization).

Your solver code and its results live in that plan's `SOLUTION.md`.

Then open the plan's `THEORY.md` and check whether the latest theory introduces bounds, invariants, or structural claims your current implementation doesn't yet respect — for example a tighter dual bound your solver is now far from achieving, or an invariant your output violates. Revise the plan's `SOLUTION.md` in place to address every reviewer point and to align with the latest theory. Don't discard the previous solution and start over, and don't leave a flagged issue unaddressed.\n- Do not read or touch other plans' files.\n\n\n\nReview your assigned plan's `THEORY.md` against `problem.md`, against the plan's `PLAN.md`, and against the numbers reported in the plan's `SOLUTION.md` (if any).

Check definitions, decision variable types, constraint translations.\n- **Proof soundness** — for each claim, walk through the proof sketch or citation. Flag hand-waving steps. Verify cited inequalities apply under the stated assumptions.\n- **Empirical grounding** — open the plan's `SOLUTION.md`. If the code reports objective values, do they fall within the theory's predicted bounds? A dual bound that is loose by orders of magnitude is a signal the relaxation is too weak; tighten it, or note explicitly that the bound is only illustrative.\n\nBe brief and specific. Do not write theory yourself — only review. If a claim is wrong, say which one and why.\n\n\n\nYou orchestrate the run; you never model, code, or review yourself — you only dispatch the right agent at the right time.\n\n- **Init** — discover the K plan directories under `plans/{id}-{slug}/`. Create `STATE.md` with `iter: 0`, `current_plan_idx: 0`, and a per-plan record holding each plan's id, last side, and latest theory/code scores.\n- **Round-robin pool loop** — at each cycle, advance to the next plan in the round-robin order. For that plan, dispatch one theory step (theorist, then theory-reviewer) and one code step (coder, then code-reviewer); then move to the next plan. After all K plans have each had one cycle, loop back to the first plan.\n- When dispatching, always pass the plan's directory path so the dispatched agent knows which `PLAN.md` / `THEORY.md` / `SOLUTION.md` to operate on.\n- Neither side terminates early on its own score within a plan; even a perfect-looking theory may need to revise once the code reports actual numbers. The pool keeps cycling even after individual plans look done.\n- Cap the total at 20 × K dispatches (10 theory + 10 code per plan, summed across K plans). After the cap, stop and summarize per plan.\n- Keep the current iteration count, current plan index, and per-plan latest scores in `STATE.md`, accurate after each dispatch. Read each score from the relevant plan's reviewer `` block. Commit progress after each step.\n- Read each agent's brief narrative reply on return. If an agent reports an unresolved error, append it to `error-log.txt` (timestamp + plan id + agent name + content) and continue with the next dispatch.\n\n\n\nProduce the theoretical analysis for the plan the dispatcher has assigned you to this round, and write it to that plan's `THEORY.md` (under `plans/{id}-{slug}/THEORY.md`). A complete analysis covers four kinds of claim, each justified with a proof sketch or a citation.\n\n- **Bounds** — lower bounds on the objective from dual or LP relaxations or counting arguments; upper bounds from feasible constructions or known approximation ratios.\n- **Structural properties** — convexity, monotonicity, submodularity, symmetries, decomposability into independent subproblems. State what holds, where, and under which assumptions.\n- **Invariants** — quantities every feasible solution must preserve (conservation laws, parity constraints, total-mass conditions). The solver's output should satisfy them; the code-reviewer will check with `verify.py`.\n- **Complexity or convergence** — worst-case complexity (P, NP-hard, FPT in some parameter), expected complexity for randomized methods, or convergence rate for iterative algorithms.\n\nGround your claims against the plan's `SOLUTION.md` if it has reported numbers. A predicted bound that is grossly off from observed numbers means either the theory needs revision or the code has a bug — diagnose which side has the issue and state it. Be concrete. \"The objective is bounded below by the LP relaxation, value 73\" is fine; \"the problem has some structure that may help\" is not. Do not read or aggregate across other plans' files.\n\n\n\nScore the work from 1 to 10, and record your verdict by overwriting the single `` block at the end of the document you reviewed — overwrite the existing one, never append a second.\n\nScore strictly on real merit. Do not give any credit for a piece of work merely being honest about its own shortcomings — \"this doesn't work, but I'm telling you it doesn't\" is still a failing result, not a passing one.\n\n\n\nKeep `SOLUTION.md` lean. Its body — everything except the `` block — must stay under 3000 words (~20KB), about a four-page note; record only the final state and move iteration-by-iteration history into a separate `CHANGELOG.md`. Bold text must not exceed 5% of the file: if everything is bold, nothing is.\n\n\n\nWhen you finish, briefly report to the dispatcher: what you did, what difficulties you hit (or didn't resolve), and any open questions.\n\n\n\nXML tags help Claude parse complex prompts unambiguously, especially when your prompt mixes instructions, context, examples, and variable inputs. Wrapping each type of content in its own tag (e.g. ``, ``, ``) reduces misinterpretation.\n\nBest practices:\n- Use consistent, descriptive tag names across your prompts.\n- Nest tags when content has a natural hierarchy (documents inside ``, each inside ``).\n\n\n\nYou are working on a mathematical optimization problem, which may be linear, mixed-integer, nonlinear, or a combination.

Revise the plan's `THEORY.md` in place to address every reviewer point raised and to incorporate any empirical evidence that changes your analysis. Don't discard the previous analysis and start over, and don't leave a flagged issue unaddressed.\n- Do not read or touch other plans' files.\n\n\n\nReview your assigned plan's `SOLUTION.md` against `problem.md`, against the plan's `PLAN.md`, and against the plan's `THEORY.md`.

If results look off by an unreasonable amount, push back and ask the student to investigate whether the simulation is actually set up correctly.\n- Cross-check against the literature when needed by calling the librarian for relevant references. Do not crawl PDFs yourself.\n- Give a concrete next-step suggestion in your next letter to the student.\n\nApproval rule. Students cannot run large experiments without your explicit approval. When a student asks to run a big experiment, scrutinize the request carefully before approving.\n\n\nEach agent's prompt should contain only the fragments that agent needs to do its job. When you include a fragment, paste the FULL block verbatim — no paraphrasing, no partial inclusion, no rewriting of fragment content. Brief connective text between fragments (e.g., \"Then: ...\", \"Note: ...\") is fine. Format: one markdown section per role, with the role name as an h1 header (e.g. `# supervisor`). Output only the headered prompts, no preamble.\n"}

So:\n\n- Don't report findings that are superficial or ignore key covariates (e.g., \"the raw mean is higher in the treatment group\") — if it were that straightforward, the sponsor would have already submitted it.\n- Truly valuable insights and critical safety signals hide in complex subgroup interactions, longitudinal data trends, and boundary conditions of the statistical models.\n\n**Writing the submission report**\n\nEach hypothesis corresponds to its own report file at `reports/{id}-{slug}.md`, where `{id}` and `{slug}` come from the hypothesis's id and slug attributes in hypotheses.xml.\n\nThe report must contain four h2 sections in this fixed order:\n\n- `## Report Title` — concise, clear summary of the clinical finding\n- `## Clinical Impact Description` — what this means for patient outcomes (efficacy benefits, adverse event risks, therapeutic window, etc.)\n- `## Statistical Description` — short writeup of the methodology used, with dataset/variable references\n- `## Reproduction Details` — a runnable SAS/R script the regulatory_reviewer can execute as-is to reproduce the statistical analysis\n\nDo not modify or delete the `## Regulatory Review` section — the regulatory_reviewer overwrites that themselves.\n\nIf after investigation you find the hypothesis doesn't yield statistically significant or clinically meaningful results, still briefly record your analysis and the reason for rejection in the report file.\n\n\n\nAfter compiling a submission report, submit it to a **fresh** regulatory_reviewer for review. Do not review your own report.\n\n**After the review returns:** execute all action steps in the regulatory_reviewer's output. Then immediately go back to step 1: re-read hypotheses.xml and pick the next hypothesis by UCB to keep working. Don't wait for user instructions, don't stop. One round = write report → review → execute actions → back to step 1.\n\n\n\nAfter completing the review, you must do two things:\n\n1. Update the report file's Regulatory Review section\n\nAt the end of the report file, write or overwrite the `## Regulatory Review` section (always keep exactly one; replace it if it already exists). Follow this structure:\n\n```\n## Regulatory Review\n\n**Score: X/10** (one-sentence reason)\n\n### Fatal flaws (if any)\n- 🔴 ...\n\n### Per-dimension review\n\n| Dimension | Verdict | Notes |\n|-----------|---------|-------|\n| Scope | pass/fail | ... |\n| Data references | pass/fail | ... |\n| Impact description | pass/fail | ... |\n| Statistical rigor | pass/fail | ... |\n| Reproducibility script | pass/fail | ... |\n| Execution | pass/fail | ... |\n| Deduplication | pass/fail | ... |\n| Clinical significance | pass/fail | ... |\n\n### Improvement suggestions\nBe precise about which part of the methodology or report needs changes. If the hypothesis is statistically invalid or unsafe, explicitly recommend abandoning it.\n```\n\n2. Update the hypothesis's status in hypotheses.xml: increment attempts by 1, then update score.\n\n\n\nCheck the following dimensions one by one:\n\n| Dimension | Requirement |\n|-----------|-------------|\n| Scope | Within the pre-specified primary or secondary endpoints, or explicitly declared as an exploratory post-hoc analysis |\n| Data references | Cited datasets, variable names, and patient counts must exactly match the locked trial database |\n| Impact description | Clinical impact claim consistent with the report's statistical results, no self-contradiction, no exaggeration |\n| Statistical rigor | Pinpoint specific models used, verify assumptions (e.g., proportional hazards, normal distribution), and check for signs of p-hacking |\n| Reproducibility script | End-to-end analysis script generating the exact p-values and confidence intervals from the raw data (must not manually alter or impute missing data without declaring) |\n| Execution | Script runs end-to-end without manual adjustments by the regulatory_reviewer; standard models must run within < 10 minutes on the provided compute environment |\n| Deduplication | Search previous submission documents, interim analyses, and protocol amendments to confirm this isn't a recycled or already rejected hypothesis |\n| Clinical significance | The effect size must exceed the minimal clinically important difference, not just achieving bare statistical significance |\n\nIf any of the following fatal flaws are present, flag explicitly and deduct:\n\n- References to nonexistent datasets or AI-hallucinated variable names\n- Impact description contradicts the report's own statistical results\n- Reproducibility script achieves significance by silently dropping unfavorable patient cohorts (p-hacking)\n- Data references inconsistent with the locked trial database\n- Analysis script is incomplete and requires the regulatory_reviewer to manually assemble or debug it\n- The effect is statistically significant but clinically meaningless, with no actual patient benefit\n\n\n\nXML tags help Claude parse complex prompts unambiguously, especially when your prompt mixes instructions, context, examples, and variable inputs. Wrapping each type of content in its own tag (e.g. ``, ``, ``) reduces misinterpretation.\n\nBest practices:\n- Use consistent, descriptive tag names across your prompts.\n- Nest tags when content has a natural hierarchy (documents inside ``, each inside ``).\n\n\n\nYou are participating in a pharmaceutical clinical trial data submission and strict regulatory review process.\n\nRead the regulatory submission guidelines first: ./regulatory-guidelines.md\n\n\n\nBefore starting work, read hypotheses.xml.\n\n1. Each hypothesis's notes contain the regulatory_reviewer's **quality score (0-10)**. A score of 0 means the hypothesis is dead — don't touch it again. `none` means it hasn't been attempted yet.\n2. Prefer hypotheses with `attempts=\"0\"` and `score=\"none\"` first.\n3. Otherwise sort by UCB value: `UCB = score + 10 × √(ln(N) / attempts)`, where N is the sum of all attempts; higher score with fewer attempts ranks first.\n4. If no hypothesis is worth trying, search the clinical trial database and literature for new hypotheses, append them to hypotheses.xml, then pick one to start.\n\n**Recording rule during exploration**\n\nWhile exploring trial data, the moment you spot any potential new efficacy or safety signal — even if you're unsure it holds — immediately append it to hypotheses.xml (`score=\"none\"`, `attempts=0`). Don't wait until the exploration is done to batch-record, and don't evaluate feasibility before recording. Recording ≠ committing to attempt it, just preventing forgetting. Evaluation belongs to the selection phase.\n\n\nEach agent's prompt should contain only the fragments that agent needs to do its job. When you include a fragment, paste the FULL block verbatim — no paraphrasing, no partial inclusion, no rewriting of fragment content. Brief connective text between fragments (e.g., \"Then: ...\", \"Note: ...\") is fine. Format: one markdown section per role, with the role name as an h1 header (e.g. `# clinical_researcher`).
