Hegelian thesis-antithesis-synthesis cycle — propose position, generate opposition, structured debate, synthesize transcending insight. Combines evaporating-cloud and polarity-mapping SOPs.

One of 18 test cases the skill fixed. Same model, same prompt, with and without the skill.
Our product team is locked in a severe disagreement: sales wants rapid custom feature delivery to close immediate deals, while engineering demands a strict freeze to refactor technical debt. Can you systematically analyze this conflict? Break down the underlying drivers for both positions, expose the unspoken assumptions holding this deadlock in place, and deliver a synthesis that resolves the friction without sacrificing either objective.
| Checked | Without skill | With skill |
|---|---|---|
| Constructs an Evaporating Cloud structure specifying common objective, requirements, and prerequisites. | Missed | Passed |
| Exposes at least 3 unspoken assumptions behind the opposing needs. | Passed | Passed |
| Proposes a synthesis injection that invalidates a key assumption to resolve the conflict. | Passed | Passed |

Thesis-antithesis-synthesis cycle for tension resolution.
Subagent: evaporating-cloud, polarity-mapping Import: paper-search, web-research
Model conflict as evaporating cloud (expose hidden assumptions behind opposing needs). If tension is a genuine polarity (not resolvable), map it with polarity management framework. Distinguish solvable conflicts from inherent polarities.
<HARD-GATE>
- evaporating clouds: >= 1
- assumptions exposed: >= 3
- polarity maps (if applicable): >= 1
</HARD-GATE>
Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.
| SOP | When to use |
|---|---|
| deep-insight-paper-search | AI-powered paper summary and search. Import of literature-engine/literature-search skill. AI summary level — cite as "AI-extracted" not "paper states". |
| deep-insight-web-research | Deep web research with full page fetching via Apify. Import of web-browsing/web-research skill. Must fetch full page — no conclusions from previews. |
| evaporating-cloud | Model conflicts as Goldratt's Evaporating Cloud — expose hidden assumptions behind opposing needs to dissolve the conflict. |
| polarity-mapping | Map unresolvable tensions as Johnson polarities — 4 quadrants (positive/negative of each pole), early warnings, action steps for managing rather than solving. |
