Thinking Skill

Available Frameworks

First Principles

Decompose problem to fundamental truths, then rebuild from ground up.

  1. Identify assumptions
  2. Break down to irreducible elements
  3. Rebuild solution from fundamentals

Council (Multi-perspective Debate)

3-round debate with 3-5 distinct perspectives:

  • Round 1: Each perspective states position
  • Round 2: Challenge and counter-argue
  • Round 3: Synthesize and find consensus

Red Team

Adversarial analysis:

  1. Identify the plan/system to attack
  2. Generate 5-10 attack vectors
  3. Rate severity and likelihood
  4. Propose mitigations

Iterative Depth

Explore topic from 2-8 angles, each adding depth:

  1. Surface understanding
  2. Mechanism understanding
  3. Edge cases and failures
  4. Systemic implications

Science Method

  1. Observe the phenomenon
  2. Form hypothesis
  3. Design experiment
  4. Execute and measure
  5. Analyze results
  6. Iterate

World/Threat Model

Analyze threats, opportunities, and second-order effects across multiple time horizons.

Usage

Specify which framework to use, or describe the problem and the appropriate framework will be selected.
