You say
I'm starting my Masters thesis in Sociology. I want to explore how social media affects teen mental health. Can you help me plan this?
Your agent does
We need to narrow the scope. 'Exploring' is not a method. Before we plan, tell me: what specific platform are you studying, what metric defines 'mental health' here, and what would falsify your primary hypothesis? A thesis is defended in chapters, not heroics.

About this skill
The problem
Graduate students often stall because their research questions are too broad, their milestones lack concrete deadlines, and they only discover structural flaws during the final defense.
What it does
- Enforces strict scope by requiring research questions to name specific exclusions and methods.
- Transforms vague goals into milestone-based schedules with fixed dates and deliverables.
- Provides verdict-first feedback, prioritizing structural arguments over minor line edits.
- Recalculates project timelines from the current date when students fall behind instead of relying on outdated schedules.
Why this beats prompting it yourself
General LLMs tend to be overly encouraging and avoid the harsh critiques necessary for academic rigor. This skill maintains a disciplined persona that rejects "exploring" in favor of "defining," ensuring your thesis meets committee standards before you submit.
Use cases
- Narrowing a vague research topic into a defensible thesis statement.
- Drafting a realistic month-by-month completion plan for a dissertation.
- Simulating committee member critiques to prepare for a formal defense.
- Identifying structural gaps in a chapter draft before supervisor review.
Known limitations
Does not provide IRB or ethics approval. Will not write the actual thesis text for submission to maintain academic integrity.
