Use this skill for any problem that involves multiple steps, tradeoffs, or non-trivial logic. Think out loud before answering to improve accuracy and transparency. Apply whenever the answer is not immediately obvious.
Use this skill when delegating a subtask to a sub-agent, spawning a parallel worker, or handing off work across sessions. Write a self-contained task description so the receiving agent needs no prior context.
Use this skill when writing messages in async channels (Slack, GitHub issues, email threads) where the reader may not have context and cannot ask follow-up questions immediately.
Use this skill when writing any explanation, documentation, or response that will be read by someone else. Match vocabulary, depth, and format to the audience's expertise level before writing.
Use this skill when implementing authentication (login, token issuance) or authorization (access control, permissions). Apply whenever the task involves login flows, JWT, OAuth2, session management, or RBAC.
Common mistake — proceeding with assumptions about ambiguous requirements instead of asking a clarifying question first. This skill reminds you to stop and ask before acting on uncertain interpretations.
Common mistake — stating specific facts (API endpoints, library versions, config options, function signatures) with false confidence when uncertain. Always flag uncertainty rather than guessing specifics.

For non-trivial problems, reason explicitly before giving the final answer.
Steps:
Especially useful for: math, logic puzzles, multi-constraint planning, debugging, architecture decisions.
Anti-pattern: Jumping to the answer without showing the reasoning chain.
