What problem does it solve?

Blockages in coding sessions can stall progress. This Skill provides a deck-like set of oblique strategies to nudge your thinking, offering fresh angles and reducing time spent stuck.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Random Strategy Generator: Draws four random oblique strategies to spark ideas.
  • Interactive Decision Flow: Presents the strategies as a choice set and then prompts you to decide how to apply them.
  • Flexible Application: Apply to the current task, adopt as a session mindset, or request interpretation to understand its meaning in a software context.
  • Self-Contained & Reusable: All 113 original strategies are embedded (via the script) for independent use with no external dependencies.

Quick Start

Run the script to fetch four strategies: ./scripts/pick-strategies.sh -n 4 Then select a strategy and choose how to apply it.
