think-harder (Codex Compatibility)

Use this skill before implementation when the task needs deeper reasoning or tradeoff analysis.

4-Phase Analysis

1. Problem Clarification

• Define the core question and constraints.
• List assumptions and success criteria.
• Identify ambiguities that must be resolved.

1. Multi-Dimensional Analysis

• Structural decomposition: break into components/dependencies.
• Temporal impact: short-term vs long-term effects.
• Causal links: key cause-effect and feedback loops.
• Context factors: operational, team, and environmental constraints.

1. Critical Evaluation

• Challenge assumptions and possible bias.
• Compare alternatives and opportunity costs.
• Run pre-mortem: what can fail, how, and impact.
• Mark uncertainty and confidence level explicitly.

1. Synthesis

• Summarize key insights and decision rationale.
• Reconcile contradictions.
• Produce actionable next steps.
