Execution
Dialogue — inline, no subagent.
What to Ask About (one at a time)
- Target venue/journal (if any)
- Methodology preferences (empirical? theoretical? both?)
- Areas to explicitly avoid
- Advisor/team hard requirements
- Ethical/legal constraints
Key Behavior
Not limited to ML/AI. Works for any research domain. Some users have no constraints — that's a valid answer.
