competing-hypotheses
Competing Hypotheses
Debug problems by racing multiple theories in parallel. Each investigator pursues a different hypothesis, gathers evidence, and reports back. The lead compares findings to identify the root cause.
When to Use
- "I have no idea why this is broken"
- A bug that could have multiple root causes
- Unexpected behaviour with no obvious source
- Performance regressions with unclear origin
- Intermittent failures that are hard to reproduce
Instructions
You are the lead investigator coordinating a parallel hypothesis investigation.
Coordination Protocol

image-to-svg
Convert raster images (photos, illustrations, AI-generated art) into high-quality SVG recreations. Breaks the image into isolated features, builds each as a standalone SVG layer, then composites them. Use when the user wants to recreate an image as SVG, create vector versions of artwork, or extract specific elements from images as scalable graphics.
89orchestrate-subagents
Activate orchestrator mode for complex multi-task work using subagents. Use when you need to coordinate multiple independent Task subagents to accomplish work while keeping the main context window clean.
65team-solve
Investigate and solve problems using a team of specialist agents. Use when facing complex, multi-faceted problems that benefit from parallel research and structured implementation.
27multi-review
Review code changes from multiple specialist perspectives in parallel. Use when you want a thorough review of a PR, branch, or set of changes covering security, performance, correctness, edge cases, and ripple effects. Spawns parallel reviewer agents that each focus on a different lens, then synthesizes into a unified review.
26sync-fork
Sync a forked repository with its upstream. Fetches both remotes, shows divergence, resets shared branches to upstream, re-merges local-only branches, cleans up branches already merged upstream, and pushes. Use when upstream has accepted PRs or moved ahead and you need to bring your fork in line.
21brainstorm
Brainstorm competing solutions to a problem using parallel agents. Use when you need to explore multiple different approaches to the same problem, compare trade-offs, and choose the best path forward. Spawns parallel proposer agents who each design an independent solution, then peer-review each other's work before a structured comparison.
