# Anti-Benchmark
Challenge industry best practices' hidden assumptions.

## HARD-GATE
Cannot exit strategy until ≥80% of each budget line is consumed OR yield targets are met with justification for remaining budget.
## Available Tactics
| Tactic | Role |
|--------|------|
| assumption-enumeration | Surface assumptions hidden in benchmarks |
## Available SOPs
| SOP | Role |
|-----|------|
| benchmark-challenge | Identify and negate benchmark assumptions |
| sacred-cow-identification | Find unquestioned beliefs behind best practices |
| assumption-perturbation | Test what happens when benchmark assumptions fail |
| constructive-rebellion | Build alternatives that violate benchmarks constructively |
| destruction-synthesis | Synthesize anti-benchmark outputs |
## Execution Guidance
1. **Identify benchmarks**: Catalog the industry best practices and standards in the domain
2. **Deconstruct**: Use benchmark-challenge to expose hidden assumptions in each
3. **Surface sacred cows**: Use sacred-cow-identification for deeper unquestioned beliefs
4. **Perturb**: Use assumption-perturbation to test "what if this standard is wrong?"
5. **Research alternatives**: Search for domains that succeed WITHOUT these benchmarks
6. **Build**: Use constructive-rebellion to form solutions that violate conventions productively
7. **Synthesize**: Produce structured output via destruction-synthesis
