Traceable Patent Analysis

Problem

Patent analysis often stalls because summary text, claims, product versions, evidence, and legal status are mixed together, pushing preliminary reads toward formal opinions. This skill treats traceability as the default constraint: it separates source facts, analytical inferences, and legal judgments before any deterministic rating.

How It Works

• Input gate: confirm jurisdiction, analysis baseline date, valid claims, product/method version, evidence sources, and material gaps; FTO adds implementation acts, search cutoff, and legal status baseline.
• Scenario templates: single-patent summary, multi-patent comparison, infringement mapping, validity/invalidation risk, FTO, design-around, valuation, equivalents, invalidation defense, and visualization.
• Four-layer analysis: select and construe claims, decompose technical features, compare items using A/B/C/D evidence states, then evaluate equivalents and validity/procedural issues.
• Legal source refresh: verify clauses, guideline impact, term adjustments, licensing records, and ownership changes; if refresh is incomplete, output a supplementation list only.

Boundaries

It is intended as a reviewable preliminary analysis draft, not a substitute for patent counsel or agents. For litigation, invalidation, licensing, transaction, listing, or product finalization, qualified professionals must review the complete record. Confidential materials must follow least-necessary handling.
