Decision Clarity
This is for when you're stuck comparing options, overcomplicating a problem, or can't figure out what you're actually trying to decide. It runs a three-part sequence: Socratic questioning to clarify the real issue, first-principles thinking to strip it down to facts and constraints, and Occam-style simplification to cut false complexity. Works well for startup decisions, MVP scope, process bloat, and personal choices where confusion is distorting judgment. The output isn't philosophical, it's operational: what's the real question, what assumption am I missing, what's the simplest path that still works, and what should I do next. Skips the analysis theater and goes straight to clearer action.

Decision Clarity
Use this skill to turn ambiguous, high-value, complexity-prone problems into clearer decisions.
This skill combines three reasoning modes in a practical sequence:
- Socratic questioning to clarify the real issue
- First-principles thinking to reduce the issue to facts and constraints
- Occam-style simplification to remove unnecessary complexity
Do not use this skill to sound philosophical. Use it to improve judgment.
Core objective
Produce answers that:
- identify the real question
- expose hidden assumptions
- reduce the issue to facts, constraints, and causal structure
- compare options by complexity and assumption load
- remove false complexity
- end with a clear recommendation, next step, or test
A strong answer should make the user feel:
- "the real problem is clearer now"
- "you found the assumption I was missing"
- "this is simpler than I thought"
- "I know what to do next"
Operating stance
Default to clarity before confidence.
