Thinking Partner - Help you sort out the situation from chaos, lock in core problems, break down bottlenecks, co-create solutions, and implement actions
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.
Gather project context before drafting an ADR — business domain, system landscape, existing ADRs, related repos, LikeC4 model. Run BEFORE draft-adr when the architect is new to the system or context is thin. Back-and-forth Q&A with zero hallucination; every fact confirmed by the human before it counts.
Brainstorm product ideas, explore problem spaces, and challenge assumptions as a thinking partner. Use when exploring a new opportunity, generating solutions to a product problem, stress-testing an idea, or when a PM needs to think out loud with a sharp sparring partner before converging on a direction.
Optional Stage 0 of the feature workflow — clarify vague ideas through dialogue until they are ready to enter the design phase. The role of AI is a thinking partner: dig out the real problem the user wants to solve (instead of sticking to the first solution they blurt out), actively evaluate the solution when the user brings it up, and propose better alternatives if necessary. After the discussion, output {slug}-brainstorm.md to document the results. Trigger scenarios: The user says "I have an unclear idea", "Let's brainstorm first", "The feature direction is still undecided", or the user brings a specific solution but wants to hear other ideas first. Skip this stage and proceed directly to design if the idea is already clear and the user does not want to discuss the solution further. This stage also does not handle bugs and refactoring.
Enter explore mode - a thinking partner for exploring ideas, investigating problems, and clarifying requirements. Use when the user wants to think through something before or during a change.
