- description:
- Apply structured mental models to think through problems. Use when the user wants to "analyze", "evaluate", "think through", "decide between", "weigh tradeoffs", or needs a framework for a decision.
- argument-hint:
- {model-name} [topic to analyze]
- user-invocable:
- true
- license:
- MIT
Apply structured mental models to problems. If a specific model was requested,
invoke the matching /consider:{model-name} command. If no model was specified,
help the user choose by presenting the options below.
Available Models
Each model invokes as /consider:<model-name> — see the marketplace listing or plugins/consider/skills/ for the full set.
Usage
/consider:first-principles how to design a caching system
/consider:inversion how to make our product successful
/consider:pareto where to focus testing effort
If no model is specified, ask the user what they want to think through, then suggest 2-3 models that would be most relevant to their problem.
Key Instructions
- When no model is specified and the user's problem is unclear, ask one clarifying question before suggesting models.
Anti-Pattern Guards
- Suggesting too many models — presenting more than 2–3 options when no model is specified overwhelms rather than guides; curate to the best fit.
- Routing non-analytical tasks here — this skill applies mental models, not implementation, debugging, or research; route those elsewhere.
Handoff
Chainable to: Any /consider:{model-name} sub-skill

bcbeidel/check-help-skill
tools
VerifiedTrustedCommunity
Use when the user wants to "audit a help skill", "review my plugin index", or "verify my help-skill is up to date". Audits a plugins/<plugin>/skills/help/SKILL.md against the help-skill rubric — coverage, freshness, frontmatter fidelity, plus five judgment dimensions and a trigger-collision check.

tools
VerifiedTrustedCommunity
Use when the user wants to "scaffold a help skill", "add a /<plugin>:help command", or "build a plugin index skill", or wants to give a plugin an orientation surface that lists its skills and common workflows. Produces a SKILL.md at plugins/<plugin>/skills/help/SKILL.md.

bcbeidel/check-skill-pair
tools
VerifiedTrustedCommunity
Audits pair-level integrity of a primitive-pair (the artifact `/build:build-skill-pair` produces) by walking the four required artifact slots — principles doc, `build-<primitive>/SKILL.md`, `check-<primitive>/SKILL.md`, and the `primitive-routing.md` registration — and reports cross-artifact issues a per-SKILL.md checker cannot see: missing principles doc, divergent principles paths between halves, absent routing registration, missing build→check handoff. Per-half structural compliance with the unified pattern (`check-skill-pattern.md`) is delegated to `plugins/build/_shared/scripts/check_skill_pattern.py`. Use when the user wants to "audit a skill pair", "review a primitive pair", or "validate the skill pair for X". Not for auditing a single SKILL.md — route to `/build:check-skill`. Not for re-distilling a stale principles doc — route to `/build:build-skill-pair`.

VerifiedTrustedCommunity
Audit a root-level resolver — verify AGENTS.md pointer, managed-region integrity, filing-table coverage against disk, context-table actionability, and trigger-eval pass rate. Use when the user wants to "audit a resolver", "validate routing table", or "find dark capabilities".
