Master metaphysics and ontology - the study of being, existence, and fundamental reality. Use for: existence, being, substance, identity, causation, modality, time, universals. Triggers: 'ontological', 'metaphysical', 'what exists', 'substance', 'essence', 'existence', 'being', 'identity', 'persistence', 'causation', 'modality', 'possible worlds', 'universals', 'particulars', 'properties', 'abstract objects', 'time', 'change', 'composition'.
Analyzes events through physics lens using fundamental laws (thermodynamics, conservation, relativity), quantitative modeling, systems dynamics, and energy principles to understand causation, constraints, and feasibility. Provides insights on energy systems, physical limits, technological feasibility, and complex systems behavior. Use when: Energy decisions, technology assessment, systems analysis, physical constraints, feasibility evaluation. Evaluates: Energy flows, conservation laws, efficiency limits, physical feasibility, scaling behavior, emergent properties.
Use when investigating why something happened and need to distinguish correlation from causation, identify root causes vs symptoms, test competing hypotheses, control for confounding variables, or design experiments to validate causal claims. Invoke when debugging systems, analyzing failures, researching health outcomes, evaluating policy impacts, or when user mentions root cause, causal chain, confounding, spurious correlation, or asks "why did this really happen?"
Analyzes events through historical lens using source analysis, comparative history, periodization, causation, continuity/change, and contextualization frameworks. Provides insights on historical patterns, precedents, path dependency, and long-term trends. Use when: Understanding historical context, identifying precedents, analyzing change over time, comparative history. Evaluates: Causation, continuity, change, context, historical parallels, long-term patterns.
