① Draft your first patent

Goal

Using combo agent (xIPnex), produce a utility patent application in ~30 minutes, including:

• Claims (1 independent + ≥3 dependents)
• Specification
• Abstract
• One normalized drawing

Prerequisites

• A disclosure (DOCX or PDF, ≥5 pages), or
• The bundled sample disclosure (scheme: intelligent water-cup temperature control)

Steps

Step 1 — Create a session (~1 minute)

1. Sign in → Dashboard → Create Combo
2. Name: Smart cup patent drafting
3. Upload the disclosure DOCX

Step 2 — Invoke the skill (~5 minutes)

In the session input:

/patent-agent From the uploaded disclosure, draft claims and the specification.

The system will:

1. Parse the disclosure and isolate the inventive concept
2. Build a structured technical picture
3. Present modeling output for your confirmation

Step 3 — Confirm the technical picture (~5 minutes)

Example output shape:

Inventive points:
  - Main control circuit heats/cools via bidirectional thermal control
  - Closed loop with NTC feedback
Necessary technical features:
  - Cup body
  - Battery compartment
  - Heating film + TEC module
  - MCU + temperature sensor
  - Control algorithm

Review and confirm. If wrong, say in natural language: “the inventive point should emphasize …”.

Step 4 — Generate claims and spec (~10 minutes)

After confirmation the system drafts:

• Independent claim spanning necessary features
• Five dependent claims (layered)
• Full specification (background, disclosure, embodiments)
• Abstract

Along the way the agent may ask:

• Extend to method claims?
• Two or three embodiments?
• How many drawings?

Step 5 — Normalize the drawing (~5 minutes)

Upload a hand sketch or CAD export, then run:

/patent-figure-normalize Convert to a formal drawing and add reference numerals 1–10.

Numerals propagate into the specification.

Step 6 — Export (~2 minutes)

Run:

/patent-doc-formatter Export filing-format DOCX

Download locally → peer review → file.

Acceptance checklist

• Full claim set appears in-session
• Specification sections complete
• ≥1 normalized drawing; numerals match the spec
• Exported DOCX is filing-ready

Next steps

• Custom Skill to bake firm style
• Patent solution reference

FAQ

Q: Claims don’t match my judgment? A: Select the claim text and ask for a rewrite in natural language.

Q: Disclosure is incomplete—can we still draft? A: The model stage will flag gaps; supply more detail and continue.
