balls-mode

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps break down complex problems into smaller, verifiable reasoning units, allowing for explicit confidence scoring at each step to prevent wasted effort on uncertain assumptions.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Decomposition: Breaks down complex questions into independent "balls" or sub-questions.
• Confidence Scoring: Assigns a numerical confidence level (0.0-1.0) to the answer of each ball.
• Synthesis: Integrates ball answers to provide a final, reasoned conclusion with an overall confidence score.
• Use Case: Before implementing a new architectural feature, use balls-mode to decompose the decision into sub-questions like "Is this approach secure?", "Does it scale?", "Are there existing libraries?", and score the confidence for each, identifying the weakest link before coding begins.

Quick Start

Use balls-mode to analyze the feasibility of implementing a new caching strategy for the user authentication service.
