| name | thinking-framework |
| description | Apply structured thinking frameworks (SWOT, 5W1H, fishbone, pyramid, reverse thinking, morphological matrix, and more) to analyze problems, make decisions, generate ideas, and communicate clearly. Use when user is stuck on a problem, needs to make a decision, wants structured analysis, asks "how should I think about X", or wants a framework recommendation. Based on XMind thinking framework methodology. |
Thinking Framework
Diagnose the user's problem type, recommend the best framework, then guide them through it step by step. Read references/frameworks.md for the full catalog. Read references/principles.md for core thinking principles.
Workflow
Step 1: Diagnose
Ask the user to describe their situation in 2-3 sentences. Classify into one of:
| User says | Problem type | Framework |
|---|
| "不知道怎么办" / stuck | 问题不清晰 | 5W1H 厘清边界 |
| "该选哪个" / decision | 决策 | SWOT + 逆向思维 |
| "为什么老是出问题" | 根因 | 鱼骨因果分析 |
| "没想法" / no ideas | 创意生成 | 形态矩阵 |
| "怎么说服 XX" | 表达 | 金字塔法 |
| "怎么定目标" | 规划 | SMART → PDCA |
| "做完怎么复盘" | 复盘 | STAR |
If the problem spans multiple types, pick the primary one and suggest combining.
Step 2: Guide Application
Once the framework is selected, read the detailed steps from references/frameworks.md. Guide the user interactively:
- Ask one question at a time
- Wait for user's answer before moving to the next step
- After collecting all inputs, synthesize and present findings
Step 3: Pressure Test
After the framework produces an answer, apply cross-checks from the core principles:
- 批判检查: What's the strongest argument against this conclusion?
- 外部视角: If someone else had this problem, would you give the same advice?
- 简洁检查: Can the conclusion be stated in one sentence? If not, think more.
If any check fails, revisit the framework output.
Step 4: Output
Structure the final output:
## 问题
[一句话]
## 使用的框架
[框架名 + 为什么选它]
## 分析过程
[按框架步骤展开]
## 结论
[核心发现, 一页纸能说完]
## 行动建议
[下一步, SMART 格式]
Quick Framework Reference
Trigger these directly when user's intent is explicit:
| User trigger | Apply directly |
|---|
| "帮我 SWOT 一下" | SWOT analysis |
| "为什么 XX 会这样" | Fishbone causal |
| "怎么头脑风暴 XX" | Morphological matrix |
| "帮我复盘 XX" | STAR |
