Cognitive Pattern

Define cognitive patterns that guide agent reasoning and decision-making.

When to use

When you want to codify reasoning strategies, decision trees, or problem-solving approaches that agents can use and improve over time.

Steps

1. Define pattern — call mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__daa_cognitive_pattern with the pattern structure and triggers
2. Create workflow — call mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__daa_workflow_create to embed the pattern in an executable workflow
3. Execute — call mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__daa_workflow_execute to run the cognitive workflow
4. Evaluate — call mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__daa_learning_status to see how the pattern performs
5. Share — call mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__daa_knowledge_share to propagate successful patterns

Pattern types

• Decision trees — structured if/then reasoning
• Chain of thought — step-by-step problem decomposition
• Analogy mapping — solve new problems by referencing similar solved ones
• Consensus patterns — multi-perspective evaluation before deciding
