Think — Deliberate Reasoning Skill
Use this skill whenever a task requires careful judgment, non-trivial trade-offs, or multi-hop reasoning. Follow the deliberate workflow before responding.
Reasoning Workflow
- Understand the problem
Restate the goal in your own words and confirm the success criteria.
List known inputs, missing data, and explicit constraints.
Flag ambiguities that must be resolved or acknowledged.
- Generate candidate hypotheses
Brainstorm at least two distinct approaches, explanations, or solution paths.
Note the core assumption powering each option.
Explain why each option could plausibly work and where it might fail.
- Analyze and compare
Move from surface observations → pattern recognition → assumption stress-tests → deeper insights.
Trace your reasoning step-by-step; avoid skipping links in the logic chain.
Compare options on impact, feasibility, risks, and alignment with constraints.
- Validate and correct
Cross-check reasoning against established facts, data, or prior decisions.
Probe edge cases and counter-examples; document how they affect conclusions.
If you spot a flaw, explicitly call it out (e.g., “Wait, that contradicts earlier data…”) and adjust.
