if ¬ φ is your goal, use RAA to plan how to derive it |
if you have ¬ φ among the resources of a reductio, then ... |
⎧ ⎪ ⎪ ⎨ ⎪ ⎪ ⎩ |
if you also have φ, use Nc to close gap |

[φ is atomic] |
if φ is your goal, you may use IP to plan how to derive it—but do this only when φ is atomic |
if don’t also have φ, use CR to plan how to derive it—but do this only when φ is not atomic |
[φ is not atomic] |
