DGS can help structure research hypotheses, theory maps, experiment-design logic, failure modes, proof paths, interdisciplinary synthesis, and validation questions.
Use DGS when the research problem is unresolved, the field is fragmented, contradictions matter, or the key need is architecture for inquiry rather than simple literature summary.
Representative uses include hypothesis architecture, contradiction mapping, experiment ordering, interdisciplinary route design, and research blocker analysis.
DGS can produce research architecture briefs, assumption maps, contradiction maps, validation paths, failure-mode registers, and next-decision structures.
DGS does not produce scientific truth by itself, replace empirical work, or replace peer review and domain expert judgment.
Empirical validation, peer review, and expert review are required before scientific claims should be relied on or advanced.
