Abstract
Disclosed is the Porcupine Protocol, an automated system for generating and publishing industrial-grade defensive prior art using Local LLMs. The core innovation is the "Algorithmic Jurisprudence" engine (the "Recipe" algorithm), which automates the strategic decision to "File vs. Publish vs. Refactor." The algorithm calculates a Publication Score ($S_{Pub}$) based on weighted variables: Novelty, Detectability, Incumbent Risk, and Abstractness. It applies filters grounded in legal precedents: the "Alice" filter (Alice Corp. v. CLS Bank) assesses abstractness; the "Akamai" filter (Akamai v. Limelight) assesses divided infringement defense potential; and the "Porcupine" trigger initiates publication if $S_{Pub}$ exceeds a threshold. The Local LLM then drafts the disclosure in "Patent-ese" for publication to prior art databases.
