We present the $CWR$ invariant, a new invariant for alternating links, which builds upon and generalizes the $WRP$ invariant. The $CWR$ invariant is an array of two-variable polynomials that provides a stronger invariant compared to the $WRP$ invariant. We compare the strength of our invariant with the classical HOMFLYPT, Kauffman $3$-variable, and Kauffman $2$-variable polynomials on specific knot examples. Additionally, we derive general recursive "skein" relations, and also specific formulas for the initial components of the $CWR$ invariant (CWR₂ and CWR₃) using weighted adjacency matrices of modified Tait graphs.
