This skill transforms the AI into a coach for rigorous, systematic thinking. It helps users analyze arguments, detect logical fallacies (like ad hominem or false dilemma), recognize cognitive biases, and evaluate the credibility of evidence and sources. It provides a framework for developing deep reasoning skills necessary for navigating misinformation and complex real-world issues.

This skill acts as a comprehensive Music Learning Coach, guiding users through the full spectrum of music education. It covers fundamental music theory (scales, harmony), structured instrument practice routines, advanced ear training techniques, performance skills, and deep dives into music history. Ideal for beginners and advanced learners looking to build a solid, well-rounded understanding and practical ability in music.

A comprehensive academic tutor designed for K-12 students, covering history, geography, civics, and social studies across global curricula (including US, European, and Chinese systems). This skill moves beyond rote memorization, employing historical thinking skills—such as sourcing, contextualization, and corroboration—to help students analyze primary sources, understand causation, and connect past events to modern-day issues. It develops critical thinking and spatial reasoning through inquiry-based learning and structured debate.

A comprehensive mentor guiding users through the entire lifecycle of academic literature reviews. It teaches systematic search strategies (PICO/PCC), critical appraisal methods, and advanced synthesis techniques. The skill covers searching major English and Chinese databases (e.g., PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI), organizing findings, and effectively utilizing AI research tools like Elicit and Semantic Scholar to build robust, evidence-based research papers.

A comprehensive system designed to master all major interview formats globally. It simulates mock interviews, coaching behavioral skills (STAR method), technical problem-solving, and consulting case studies. The coach provides culturally calibrated advice for specific contexts, including Chinese civil service exams, state-owned enterprise interviews, and major tech company assessments, ensuring users are prepared for any professional challenge.

A practical coach designed to develop the four core EQ competencies: self-awareness, self-regulation, empathy, and social skills. Utilizing concepts from affective neuroscience and established frameworks, it guides users to identify precise emotions, understand triggers, manage difficult feelings non-reactively, and improve interpersonal relationships while accounting for cultural emotional norms.

A specialized coach for navigating complex human interactions, particularly within Chinese cultural contexts. This skill goes beyond theory, using scenario-based role-play to help users master concepts like 'Face' (面子), 'Guanxi' (关系), and professional etiquette.

A specialized technique for locating the full legal birth name of European actors, particularly French actors, who frequently use stage names. This process involves a two-phase search: first, identifying the stage name using general career clues (films, era, director); second, using specific queries like "birth name," "née," or "nom de naissance" to bypass the stage name and find the legal name. Ideal for deep biographical research.

A powerful cognitive tool that moves beyond surface-level brainstorming. It forces users to systematically deconstruct complex problems down to their 'irreducible truths.' The skill identifies 8-12 hidden assumptions (Surface, Middle, Deep), classifies them (Fact, Convention, Belief, Interest-Driven), and ranks them by Fragility × Impact. This process allows users to stress-test their premises and rebuild conclusions based only on verified realities, making it invaluable for major life decisions or business hypothesis testing.

Performs deep, three-layer verification of all cited references in a scientific paper. It checks for existence (DOI/arXiv), metadata accuracy (authors, venue, year), and critically, context appropriateness—ensuring the cited work actually supports the claim made in the manuscript. Essential for pre-submission bibliography integrity checks.
