meta-systems-thinking

Apply systems thinking — causal loop diagrams, stock-and-flow models, system archetypes, and leverage-point analysis — to organizational, economic, or social problems where feedback loops, delays, or emergent behavior drive recurring failure across multiple interacting actors. Use this skill when the user describes a multi-actor situation that resists linear fixes: policy interventions that backfire, org-level fixes that break other teams, market symptoms that return after being solved, or time-lagged second-order consequences, even if they say 'why does fixing X make Y worse' or 'identify the leverage points in this system'. Do NOT use for single-cause software bugs, flaky tests, or regressions — those are debugging problems, not systems-thinking problems, even when phrased as 'this keeps coming back'.
