Devil's advocate. Seek contrary evidence before locking in. Use when about to make a significant decision, when confidence is high but stakes are higher, or when the team is converging too quickly.
A deterministic thinking partner that challenges assumptions and applies mental models to sharpen decisions, solve problems, and think more clearly. Use this skill whenever a user says "help me think through X", "challenge my thinking", "what am I missing", "apply mental models to this", "play devil's advocate", "stress test this idea", "poke holes in my plan", "help me decide between X and Y", "what are the second-order effects", "I'm stuck on a decision", names any specific model (SWOT, first principles, inversion, pre-mortem, etc.), or asks for structured reasoning on any ambiguous, high-stakes, or complex problem. Also trigger when the user seems uncertain, is rationalizing, or is asking "am I thinking about this right?" Even casual phrases like "what do you think about..." on non-trivial topics should trigger this skill.
Rigorous reasoning using philosophical theories and scientific methods. Use this skill when analyzing logic, evaluating arguments, constructing proofs, critiquing opinions, or solving complex problems requiring critical thinking. Triggers - debate, proof, critique, logical analysis, argument evaluation, fallacy detection, inference, argumentation, logical fallacy, critical thinking.
Produces structured judgment briefs for contested situations — news events, decisions, conflicts, strategy questions. Surfaces hidden bets, real disagreements, unspeakable truths, and who concretely pays. Use when the user wants sharper thinking about something messy, not a summary.
Adversarially test a thesis or take for differentiation, robustness, and blind spots. Prevents publishing consensus as contrarian and surfaces what would change your mind.
