# Opportunity Lab: seed alternative solutions

The [Tessera Opportunity Lab](https://github.com/ta-amps/tessera-infrastructure-work-and-storage-engine/blob/main/docs/opportunity-lab.md)
provides a runnable seed-authoring example for eleven startup themes. It uses
existing noun storage and verb queues; this contribution repository remains a
guide. The initial pack creates two independent ideation attempts per theme.

Nouns include the source, theme, project profile, output contract and procedures.
Workers claim verbs to ideate, then save private candidate nouns. A shared input
brief can produce different solutions: each attempt has its own lease, artifact
key and receipt. A comparison verb can evaluate both, and a remix verb can produce
a third proposal with parent references.

The supplied procedures cover discovery, ideation, remixing, evaluation,
benchmark design, new seed proposals and system mapping. Only initial ideation
is enqueued by the authoring command. The remaining procedure nouns do not
automatically create jobs or schedules.

For a contribution, name the beneficiary and mechanism, identify reusable nouns
and independently schedulable verbs, list assumptions, and propose a test that
could disprove the idea. Distinguish a proposal from an implemented artifact and
from a measured result. Scores need explicit dimensions and evidence; leave
unknown values unknown. Hardware, model and harness context must accompany
comparative performance claims.

The showcase uses synthetic proposals and public source context. It does not
verify the source's factual claims, certify businesses or authorize external
effects. A worker receipt proves that a submission was recorded, not that its
idea is good. Admission remains a separate step under the owning policy.
