SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Product reasoning often mixes facts with assumptions and falls prey to cognitive biases like confirmation bias or survivorship bias, leading to flawed decisions. This Skill provides a structured critical-analysis lens that separates facts from interpretations, names biases explicitly, and proposes countermeasures. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Situation Deconstruction: Breaks down a situation or argument into facts, assumptions, identified biases, confidence level, alternative explanations, and countermeasures. - Product Idea Evaluation: Assesses whether applying a bias-based approach to a product idea is appropriate, evaluates manipulation risk, and always offers a bias-free alternative. - Use Case: Before committing to a game monetization mechanic based on scarcity, ask the lens to check the reasoning — it will flag whether the approach risks manipulative dark patterns and suggest an honest alternative. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to run your current product reasoning through the cognitive-biases lens and check it for distortions.

Frequently Asked Questions about cognitive-biases

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I check my product reasoning for cognitive biases?▼

Explicitly ask the assistant to run your reasoning through the cognitive-biases lens. It returns a structured breakdown of facts, assumptions, identified biases, confidence level, alternative explanations, and countermeasures if a bias is found.

How to evaluate if a persuasion technique is manipulative in product design?▼

Submit the product idea for bias-lens evaluation. The analysis gates on whether the approach is appropriate, explains user benefit rather than business metrics, assesses manipulation risk, and always provides a bias-free alternative.

Does the cognitive bias analysis run automatically during product discovery?▼

No, it activates only on explicit owner request, such as asking to check for biases. Mentioning the word bias in conversation does not trigger it, and it does not replace independent review gates.

What are the limitations of bias-based product analysis?▼

The lens never recommends dark patterns like fake scarcity, hidden subscriptions, or deceptive social proof. If an idea fails the appropriateness gate, the analysis stops early and only delivers a bias-free alternative.

What output format does a cognitive bias critique produce?▼

It produces a fixed structure: facts, assumptions and interpretations, bias assessment with justification, confidence level with reasoning, alternative explanations, and countermeasures only when a bias is actually present.
