Innovation Assistant by TRIZ
What this skill does
Generate reviewable TRIZ innovation or TRIZ/DFMA cost-reduction concepts and expand a selected concept into a detailed solution by calling the PatSnap Solution Engine MCP endpoint over plain HTTP. Use when an agent has no native MCP client but must solve a product innovation, engineering contradiction, design improvement, component trimming, manufacturing simplification, assembly optimization, or product cost-reduction request through the PatSnap endpoint.
Innovation Assistant by TRIZ is part of the Developer Tools category — developer tools that help your agent write, review, debug, and ship code. You can install it on its own or alongside other developer tools skills from the OpenClaw catalog.
