Six Hats Debate Skill
How It Works
- User submits the topic — paste the decision, plan, or question in chat.
- User specifies output path — e.g.
Projects/my-debate/or any path. - Skill runs 3 rounds of sequential debate, one hat at a time.
- Blue hat moderates — summarizes and provides the final recommendation.
- Summary written to
{output_path}/debate-{timestamp}.md.
The Six Hats
| Hat | Role | Focus |
|---|---|---|
| White | Facts & Information | What do we know? What's unknown? What data exists? |
| Red | Emotion & Intuition | Gut feelings, hunches, what feels wrong even without evidence |
| Yellow | Optimism & Benefits | Why could this work? What's the best outcome? |
| Black | Caution & Risks | What could go wrong? What are the failure modes? |

first-principles-decomposer
Break any problem down to fundamental truths, then rebuild solutions from atoms up. Use when user says "firstp", "first principles", "from scratch", "what are we assuming", "break this down", "atomic", "fundamental truth", "physics thinking", "Elon method", "bedrock", "ground up", "core problem", "strip away", or challenges assumptions about how things are done.
22idea-challenger
Pre-launch red team analysis that identifies failure modes and validates assumptions before resource commitment. Use when evaluating new products/features/strategies, before significant resource allocation, when stakeholders seem overly optimistic, or when cost of failure would be high (reputation, budget, market position).
21optimize-docs
Condense markdown documentation for token efficiency while preserving all semantic meaning. Use when rules, documentation, or config files need optimization. Target 25-40% reduction through systematic condensation patterns.
20pre-mortem-analyst
Imagine the project already failed, then work backward to find why. More powerful than risk assessment because it assumes failure is certain. Use when user says "pre-mortem", "premortem", "imagine this failed", "what could go wrong", "risk analysis", "before we launch", "stress test", "what would kill this", "project risks".
20inversion-strategist
Flip problems upside down - instead of "how to succeed", ask "how to definitely fail" then avoid those paths. Use when user says "invert", "inversion", "flip it", "opposite approach", "how would this fail", "avoid failure", "what NOT to do", "Munger", "anti-goals", "guarantee failure".
20security-threat-model
Repository-grounded threat modeling that enumerates trust boundaries, assets, attacker capabilities, abuse paths, and mitigations, and writes a concise Markdown threat model. Trigger only when the user explicitly asks to threat model a codebase or path, enumerate threats/abuse paths, or perform AppSec threat modeling.
