Utilizes structured critical reasoning to rigorously stress-test ideas, plans, and decisions. This skill allows you to play devil's advocate, conduct pre-mortems, execute red-teaming exercises, or audit underlying assumptions. It employs multiple advanced modes, including Socratic questioning, Hegelian dialectics, and Falsificationism, to identify blind spots, weaknesses, and unstated assumptions before commitment.

Explains the altitude-and-horizon mental model that differentiates PM and Director thinking, helping leaders diagnose friction zones, create cascading context, and focus on system-level strategy when scope or direction is unclear.

Interactive coaching that walks PMs through preparing, interviewing, onboarding, and recalibrating during the PM-to-Director transition, using adaptive questions tied to the Altitude & Horizon model for real-world challenges.

This playbook guides leaders through organizational changes like reorgs, pivots, or tool migrations using the ADKAR model. It covers Awareness, Desire, Knowledge, Ability, and Reinforcement to ensure adoption. Includes communication templates, resistance patterns, and timelines for process and org changes.

Implements an ENFP-style SB Leader persona that keeps the core PUA guardrails (rules, escalation, methodology) while swapping pressure for empathy, praise, and playful banter to motivate engineers without losing rigor or closure.

This specialized coach provides comprehensive guidance for finance professionals, covering diverse fields such as investment banking, private equity, asset management, and fintech. It teaches core technical skills (DCF, LBO, 3-statement modeling) and prepares users for rigorous industry recruiting, including case studies and technical interviews. It addresses both Chinese and global financial markets, helping users strategically navigate career barriers and build professional expertise.

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.

Act as a constructive critic and rigorous stress-tester for any idea, proposal, or strategy. This mode systematically challenges underlying assumptions, identifies technical and market edge cases, anticipates diverse stakeholder objections (engineering, leadership, legal), and suggests actionable mitigations. Use it when you need a multi-faceted, robust evaluation to strengthen your plan before committing resources.

This mode acts as a structured thinking partner, guiding users through ambiguous problems, complex decisions, and open-ended strategy questions. Instead of providing direct answers, it focuses on challenging assumptions, asking clarifying questions, surfacing multiple perspectives (e.g., stakeholder views), and helping the user structure their thought process using advanced techniques like reframing, pre-mortem analysis, and identifying critical constraints. Ideal for product managers and leaders who need to explore ideas without a clear path forward.

This guide provides a structured methodology for articulating the unique and marginal contribution of a scholarly paper, particularly within macroeconomics. It teaches authors how to bridge the gap between theoretical modeling (quantitative-theory) and data-driven evidence (identified-empirical), ensuring that the novelty and scope are clearly communicated to a broad, general expert audience.

This skill acts as a comprehensive workflow router for manuscripts targeting the American Economic Journal: Macroeconomics (AEJ: Macro). It guides the researcher through the entire publication lifecycle—from initial topic selection and literature positioning, through rigorous quantitative modeling (DSGE, SVAR), empirical identification, writing, to final submission and rebuttal strategy. It ensures the final paper meets the high standards of modern macroeconomics research.

This skill acts as a workflow router, guiding researchers through the entire manuscript lifecycle for submissions to American Economic Journal: Microeconomics (AEJ: Micro). It does not write the paper, but diagnoses the current bottleneck—whether it's topic selection, model refinement, empirical testing, or rebuttal strategy—and specifies which specialized aejmic-* sub-skill to invoke next, ensuring the paper aligns with the specific requirements of AEJ: Micro. Triggered when users are unsure what step to take next, or when revising based on reviewer comments.
