SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill provides a disciplined, repeatable thinking loop for tackling non-trivial problems by guiding you through 10 attention stages from external observation to iterative growth, helping surface biases and structure reasoning.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Provides a staged framework (OBSERVE external, OBSERVE internal, LISTEN, THINK, CONNECT, CONNECT, FEEL, ACCEPT, CREATE, GROW) to organize complex analysis and decision-making.
  • Supports use cases such as architectural decisions, post-mortems, audits, and ambiguous requests where rigorous thinking pays off.
  • Encourages artifacts like final recommendations or audit artifacts produced in the CREATE stage.

Quick Start

Invoke /think with your problem statement to walk through the 10 stages in order and produce a final recommendation.

Frequently Asked Questions about think

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I apply structured thinking to ambiguous architectural decisions?▼

Structured thinking for architectural decisions is applied via a 10-stage loop that guides you from external observation to iterative growth, logging biases and producing a final recommendation artifact.

What is a systematic thinking loop for complex problem-solving?▼

A systematic thinking loop is a 10-principle staged process covering OBSERVE, LISTEN, THINK, CONNECT, FEEL, ACCEPT, CREATE, and GROW to organize analysis, surface biases, and structure reasoning.

How do I conduct a post-mortem with bias logging and structured reasoning?▼

Conduct a post-mortem with bias logging by invoking the /think command with your problem statement, walking through the 10 attention stages in order, and generating a final audit artifact.

Can I use structured decision-making for non-trivial user requests?▼

Yes, structured decision-making for non-trivial user requests is supported by automating a rigorous reasoning process that handles ambiguity through staged observation, connection, and creation.

Does this structured thinking framework require external dependencies?▼

No external dependencies are required to run this structured thinking framework, as it operates as a standalone meta-skill accessible via the /think command.

When should I avoid using a 10-stage structured thinking loop?▼

Avoid using a 10-stage structured thinking loop for trivial problems where rigorous reasoning and bias logging are unnecessary, as the process is designed specifically for non-trivial analysis.
