MCP Skill: Sequential Thinking
Scope
Use the MCP server configured as sequentialthinking in .vscode/mcp.json to produce step-by-step reasoning artifacts for complex changes.
Preconditions
- Ensure
.vscode/mcp.jsoncontains a server entry namedsequentialthinking.
Operating Rules
- Prefer short, ordered steps that can be validated locally.
- Call out unknowns explicitly and convert them into concrete discovery steps (search files, read AGENTS, inspect type errors).
- Keep the solution Occam-simple: avoid introducing new abstractions without a demonstrated need.
When To Use
- Refactors crossing multiple modules (shell/workspace/capability/eventing/integration).
- Any change that might impact DDD boundaries or the append-before-publish contract.
- Debugging nondeterministic behavior (signals/streams, event ordering).
