Traction scoreGitHub stars can be faked, so popularity alone can be misleading. Traction Score looks for broader signs of real attention, adoption, and active maintenance.
This skill guides a researcher through the process of moving from a loose idea, literature gap, or stalled project to a sharp, testable research question. It centers on a structured methodology—diagnosing the starting point, diverging with high-value lenses, and converging ruthlessly—that prioritizes one strong question over many decorative ones. The skill is built for PhD students, early-career researchers, and grant proposal writers who need to choose, frame, or stress-test a hypothesis before committing to a method or field.
