Abstract (from CDS):

With the growing number of gamma-ray monitors in operation, several research teams have adopted a strategy of joint operation and scientific duty to improve efficiency. A successful example is the GECAM-HXMT-SVOM (GHS) constellation collaboration, which sets a precedent for other gamma-ray monitor constellations. However, joint duty also presents challenges to burst advocates (BAs), including an increased number of triggers and, more importantly, frequent switching between various systems due to incompatibilities among different missions, which complicates the situation. To address the current requirements of multiwavelength and multimessenger astronomy, we developed a customized framework for unified trigger processing within the GHS joint duty, named “BAs' Rapid Evaluation and Analysis Kit for Formulating Alerts and Summary Tools” (BREAKFAST). This framework incorporates a series of automated, semiautomated, and manual pipelines designed to rapidly process triggers of prompt emissions in the gamma-ray band from different instruments, while maintaining flexible compatibility for future missions. The pursuit of BREAKFAST goes beyond merely providing trigger processing for BAs. BREAKFAST also aims to identify high-value targets through rapid analysis and to guide follow-up telescopes by providing timely reports, thereby serving as an important bridge between prompt-emission observations and afterglow observations. To this end, a suite of comprehensive analysis modules is included in BREAKFAST, particularly the specially designed module that predicts X-ray afterglow brightness based on prompt-emission properties. The framework's effectiveness has already been demonstrated in recent observational campaigns, and it is expected to play a significant role in the discovery and observation of peculiar transients in the future.
