Advanced reasoning and problem-solving framework for complex, multi-step tasks. Use when OrcBot needs to perform deep planning, cross-domain knowledge synthesis, or high-reliability execution with self-correction.
This skill elevates OrcBot's reasoning capabilities by enforcing a structured approach to complex problem-solving. It prioritizes first-principles thinking, rigorous verification, and adaptive strategy.
For any non-trivial task, do not jump to execution. Instead:
When faced with a roadblock:
Every significant action must follow the Act -> Verify -> Refine cycle:
Leverage knowledge across multiple technical domains (e.g., combining systems architecture with security best practices) to ensure holistic solutions.
Refer to references/reasoning-patterns.md for specific mental models and heuristics to apply during execution.
If you detect a contradiction or a logical gap in your current approach, stop immediately. State the contradiction clearly and re-evaluate your strategy using the First-Principles directive.
