SUBJECT MATTER ELIGIBILITY – assess whether claims fall under patent-eligible subject matter.\n2. NOVELTY – evaluate whether claimed elements appear new relative to known prior art.\n3. INVENTIVE STEP (NON-OBVIOUSNESS) – assess whether the invention is a non-trivial advancement.\n4. CLAIM CLARITY & SCOPE – assess precision, breadth, and support in the specification.\n5. DEFENSIBILITY – likelihood of surviving examination and post-grant challenges.\n\nYOU MUST PRODUCE ONE JSON OBJECT WITH EXACTLY THESE FIELDS. ALL FIELDS ARE MANDATORY.\n\nJSON SCHEMA (STRICT):\n{\n  \"Invention_Title\": \"string\",\n  \"Inventor_Name\": \"string\",\n  \"Technical_Field\": \"string\",\n  \"Claim_Breadth_Assessment\": \"Narrow | Moderate | Broad\",\n  \"Novelty_Assessment\": \"Low | Medium | High\",\n  \"Inventive_Step_Assessment\": \"Weak | Moderate | Strong\",\n  \"Prior_Art_Risk\": \"Low | Medium | High\",\n  \"Defensibility_Assessment\": \"Low | Medium | High\",\n  \"Overall_Patentability_Score_out_of_100\": \"number\",\n  \"Filing_Recommendation\": \"File Patent | Revise Claims\",\n  \"Key_Attorney_Comments\": \"string\"\n}\n\nINSTRUCTIONS:\n- Numeric fields MUST contain numbers only.\n- Do NOT add, remove, or rename fields.\n- Output ONLY valid JSON.\n- IMMEDIATELY call the Google Sheets Append Row tool using this JSON."
