stress-testing

Stress-test plans, proposals, and strategies. Use for pre-mortems, assumption audits, risk registers, evaluating business ideas, identifying failure modes, or when you need devil's advocate analysis before committing resources.

10x-vision

Strategic amplification mode that reveals blind spots, untapped opportunities, and hidden leverage points in any business strategy, entrepreneurship idea, or creative content project. Cuts through noise to show what others miss.

hypotheticals-counterfactuals

Use when exploring alternative scenarios, testing assumptions through "what if" questions, understanding causal relationships, conducting pre-mortem analysis, stress testing decisions, or when user mentions counterfactuals, hypothetical scenarios, thought experiments, alternative futures, what-if analysis, or needs to challenge assumptions and explore possibilities.

constraint-based-creativity

Use when brainstorming feels stuck or generates obvious ideas, need to break creative patterns, working with limited resources (budget/time/tools/materials), want unconventional solutions, designing with specific limitations, user mentions "think outside the box", "we're stuck", "same old ideas", "tight constraints", "limited budget/time", or seeking innovation through limitation rather than abundance.

deliberation-debate-red-teaming

Use when testing plans or decisions for blind spots, need adversarial review before launch, validating strategy against worst-case scenarios, building consensus through structured debate, identifying attack vectors or vulnerabilities, user mentions "play devil's advocate", "what could go wrong", "challenge our assumptions", "stress test this", "red team", or when groupthink or confirmation bias may be hiding risks.

forecast-premortem

Use to stress-test predictions by assuming they failed and working backward to identify why. Invoke when confidence is high (>80% or <20%), need to identify tail risks and unknown unknowns, or want to widen overconfident intervals. Use when user mentions premortem, backcasting, what could go wrong, stress test, or black swans.

estimation-fermi

Use when making quick order-of-magnitude estimates under uncertainty (market sizing, resource planning, feasibility checks), decomposing complex quantities into estimable parts, bounding unknowns with upper/lower limits, sanity-checking strategic assumptions, or when user mentions Fermi estimation, back-of-envelope calculation, order of magnitude, ballpark estimate, triangulation, or needs to assess feasibility before detailed analysis.

scientific-clarity-checker

Use when reviewing any scientific document for logical clarity, argument soundness, and scientific rigor. Invoke when user mentions check clarity, review logic, scientific soundness, hypothesis-data alignment, claims vs evidence, or needs a cross-cutting scientific logic review independent of document type.

role-switch

Use when stakeholders have conflicting priorities and need alignment, suspect decision blind spots from single perspective, need to pressure-test proposals before presenting, want empathy for different viewpoints (eng vs PM vs legal vs user), building consensus across functions, evaluating tradeoffs with multi-dimensional impact, or when user mentions "what would X think", "stakeholder alignment", "see from their perspective", "blind spots", or "conflicting interests".

dialectical-mapping-steelmanning

Use when debates are trapped in false dichotomies, polarized positions need charitable interpretation, tradeoffs are obscured by binary framing, synthesis beyond 'pick one side' is needed, or when users mention steelman arguments, thesis-antithesis-synthesis, Hegelian dialectic, third way solutions, or resolving seemingly opposed principles.

chain-roleplay-debate-synthesis

Use when facing decisions with multiple legitimate perspectives and inherent tensions. Invoke when stakeholders have competing priorities (growth vs. sustainability, speed vs. quality, innovation vs. risk), need to pressure-test ideas from different angles before committing, exploring tradeoffs between incompatible values, synthesizing conflicting expert opinions into coherent strategy, or surfacing assumptions that single-viewpoint analysis would miss.

assumption-challenger

Identify and challenge implicit assumptions in plans, proposals, and technical decisions. Use when strategic-cto-mentor needs to surface hidden assumptions and wishful thinking before they become costly mistakes.
