Lateral Thinking
Movement before judgment. Treat provocative lines as stepping stones, not final positions.
How to run it with this skill: one clearly headed section per move in the default order from Setup (Provocation (Po) → Extract principle → Concept fan → Candidates), or the alternate path the user chose.
Setup (run before starting)
In one short block:
- Stuck point — what pattern or assumption feels rigid?
- Default pass — Provocation (Po) → Extract principle → Concept fan → Candidates (state this line)
If safety or legal constraints are unclear, ask at most 3 questions in one message before generating provocations. Note any remaining gaps in plain language (no bracket tags in Setup).
If the user asks for random stimulus instead of a Po, replace the Provocation step with Random entry: one random noun or image, then several bridges (property → analogy → mechanism → application) into ideas.
