By name: think-harder description: 4-phase structured analysis wrapper for vibe pre-routing (compatible with claude-code-settings think-harder semantics).
think-harder (Codex Compatibility)
Use this skill before implementation when the task needs deeper reasoning or tradeoff analysis.
4-Phase Analysis
- Problem Clarification
- Define the core question and constraints.
- List assumptions and success criteria.
- Identify ambiguities that must be resolved.
- 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.
- 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.
- Synthesis
- Summarize key insights and decision rationale.
- Reconcile contradictions.
- Produce actionable next steps.
Output Contract
- Problem reframing
