mental-models
Skill1 starsChanged 57 days agoNo licenceView on GitHub
Facilitated thinking sessions using 12 mental models with intelligent routing. Use when a user describes a problem, decision, or situation they need to think through clearly. Trigger on phrases like "I need to decide," "what could go wrong," "why does this keep happening," "should I," "how do I think about," "I'm stuck on," "I can't decide," "what am I missing," "help me think through," or any request for structured thinking, decision-making, risk analysis, root cause analysis, or prioritization. Routes to the right framework automatically — user never needs to know model names. Pairs with devil's-advocate for challenging conclusions, decision-maker for final choice structuring, self-interview for problem clarification, and research-brief for gathering missing information.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
Show its rules and text
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
19 rules. 0 are common, 18 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 7 edited versions we read keep these.
18
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
No licence file, so all rights are reserved — read it at the source. We count its rules but don't quote them. Read them on GitHub.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 7 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
