triz

Resolves software trade-offs with TRIZ: the contradiction matrix and 40 inventive principles, the separation principles, and ARIZ-85C walked part by part with the user.

Hermes

hermes plugins install Akurganow/ai-plugins/plugins/triz --no-enable
hermes plugins list
hermes plugins enable triz

Keep the plugins/triz suffix: without it Hermes copies the whole repository, and its two-level scan finds no package.

Usage

Describe the trade-off in your own words:

A longer cache lifetime takes load off the database but serves stale reads.
Find a way out that is not a compromise.

The contradiction skill restates the problem as a contradiction and asks you to confirm it. It writes the ideal final result and maps both sides to two of Altshuller's 39 parameters. It reads the matching cell of the contradiction matrix. It returns two to four directions, each named after its principle and stated as a change to your system. A problem the matrix route does not crack, or one that keeps coming back, goes on to the ariz skill. It walks ARIZ-85C part by part with you. When ARIZ restates the problem as a new technical contradiction, ariz offers it back to contradiction.

What's inside

Path	What it is
`skills/contradiction/SKILL.md`	the matrix route: contradiction, ideal final result, separation, parameters, matrix, principles
`skills/contradiction/references/parameters.md`	the 39 parameters, each with a reading for software
`skills/contradiction/references/principles.md`	the 40 principles, each with a paraphrase of Altshuller's sub-items and a reading for software; `ariz` reads it too
`skills/contradiction/references/matrix.md`	the classic matrix, one line per cell, with its provenance and the disputed cells
`skills/contradiction/references/sources.md`	the copy and commit each reference of both skills rests on, and the sources that stayed out of reach
`skills/ariz/SKILL.md`	the ARIZ-85C walk, part by part, for a problem the matrix route did not crack or that keeps coming back
`skills/ariz/references/ariz-85c.md`	the nine parts and forty steps of ARIZ-85C, with the formulas quoted and a software gloss
`plugin.json`	the Agent Plugins 1.0.0 manifest
`.claude-plugin/plugin.json`	a byte-identical copy of `plugin.json` at the one manifest path Claude Code documents (documentation, "Plugin manifest schema")
`LICENSE`	the MIT license

The package has no script, hook, rule file or network access. The agent searches the matrix for one line, so the lookup needs nothing installed.

The matrix is the classic 39-by-39 table with 1,248 non-empty cells. It merges two public transcriptions, which differ on 40 cells. A third, and for three cells a fourth, settle those 40 by majority. matrix.md lists every reading of each disputed cell. No transcription read here has more than 1,248 cells, so the often-quoted count of 1,263 stays unconfirmed. sources.md names each copy by commit.

Boundaries

The matrix, the principles and ARIZ give directions with a published origin, not guarantees. Your knowledge of your system decides which direction survives.
A problem with no trade-off in it is not a TRIZ problem. contradiction says so before any lookup, and ariz before Part 1.
The software readings of the parameters and principles are this package's own. sources.md reports finding no published mapping of the 39 parameters to software, and no study of the matrix on software problems.
A tangle of symptoms with no trade-off in sight belongs to the root-cause skill of toc-thinking. Both skills hand over only when root-cause is installed.
