Skills 26 in the Claude listing
76 standard solutions TRIZ 76 Standard Solutions — guides users through solving technical and organizational problems using Substance-Field Analysis (Su-Field) and the 76 Standard Solutions organized in 5 classes. Business function analysis Non-Engineer Function Analysis using simplified TRIZ — helps users from non-engineering backgrounds apply Function Analysis to improve systems in everyday domains like education, healthcare, customer Business msd TRIZ Multi-Screen Diagram (MSD / 9 Boxes / 9 Windows) for business and technical systems. Cause effect chain analysis TRIZ Cause and Effect Chain Analysis (CECA) and Root Cause Analysis (RCA) — guides users through structured root cause analysis to identify root causes, key disadvantages, and contradictions in techni Contradiction solver TRIZ Contradiction Solver and 40 Inventive Principles — resolves engineering and physical contradictions using the Altshuller Matrix, Matrix 2003, and the 40 Inventive Principles. Derivative resources TRIZ Derivative Resources Analysis — identifies not only existing resources but also potential derivative resources that arise through combination, transformation, or reinterpretation. Feature transfer TRIZ Feature Transfer — helps enhance systems by adopting beneficial features from alternative systems. Function analysis TRIZ Function Analysis for technical systems — identifies tools, actions, objects, and functions, clarifies component relationships, and reveals the system's main function. Function analysis advanced Advanced Function Analysis with Spatio-Temporal Considerations — extends traditional function analysis by incorporating 'when' and 'where' functions are performed, uncovering inefficiencies, mismatche Function interaction analysis TRIZ Function and Interaction Analysis — analyzes technical systems by identifying components, mapping their interactions based on energy/matter/information flow, and presenting functions in tabular f Function oriented search TRIZ Function-Oriented Search (FOS), Method-Oriented Search (MOS), and Scientific Effects exploration — helps users find inventive solutions by searching for scientific effects, natural analogies, and ideality TRIZ Ideality — optimize technical systems by reducing harm, enhancing usefulness, managing resources, and adding new functions. Innovation checklist TRIZ Innovation Situation Questionnaire (ISQ / ISQ++) — guides users through the structured ISQ process by presenting questions and capturing responses, with optional Excel export. Interactive trimming Interactive TRIZ TRIMMING with extended rules (A, B, C, D, E, X) — guides users interactively through trimming components from technical systems using an expanded set of rules including external compo Mpv analysis TRIZ PV-MPV Analysis — structured facilitator for identifying Parameters of Value (PVs) and Main Parameters of Value (MPVs) of a technical system. Patent analyzer TRIZ Patent Analyzer — identifies engineering and physical contradictions in patent texts using TRIZ methodology. Perception mapping TRIZ Perception Mapping for surfacing stakeholder beliefs, building Leads-To networks, exposing contradictions, and preparing inventive-principle-based solution work. Physical contradictions TRIZ Physical Contradictions and Separation Principles — identifies and resolves physical contradictions using the four separation principles (space, time, parts/whole, condition). Resource analysis TRIZ Resource Analysis — identifies and creatively utilizes all six TRIZ resource types (material, field, functional, informational, spatial, temporal) to solve technical or organizational problems. Root cause analysis Root Cause Analysis (RCA) for engineering problems — systematic step-by-step framework identifying scientific principles, analyzing physical parameters, and deriving actionable insights. Root conflict analysis TRIZ Root Conflict Analysis (RCA+) — a domain-independent technique for defining, structuring, and visually representing problems by discovering contradictions. Smart little people TRIZ Smart Little People (SLP) method — uses imaginary tiny intelligent agents to creatively model and solve problems within technical systems. Solutions at system levels Business-TRIZ: Solutions at System Levels — helps users define Super-Systems and Sub-Systems for a business system and generate solution ideas at different system levels. System description TRIZ System Description (Mini-ISQ) — guides users through creating a clear technical system and problem description via structured questions. System operator TRIZ System Operator (9 Boxes / 9 Screens) — analyzes technical systems from multiple perspectives across past, present, and future at Super-System, System, and Sub-System levels. trimming TRIZ Trimming and Trimming Rules — streamlines engineering systems by identifying and eliminating unnecessary components while preserving essential functions using Rules A, B, and C.
