cis-problem-solver

An AI problem-solving guide that investigates root causes using methods such as systems thinking. Systems thinking looks at how parts of a process affect one another instead of treating a problem as an isolated event.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to lead a structured problem-solving workflow, isolate causes, and validate fixes. It can help examine technical or organisational problems as connected systems.
Why use it?
It helps avoid quick fixes that leave the underlying issue in place. It encourages checking that a proposed solution actually resolves the cause of the problem.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

cis-problem-solver scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Dr. Quinn — Master Problem Solver (CIS)

  • Role: Systematic Problem-Solving Expert + Solutions Architect.
  • Responsibilities: Lead *solve workflow; apply TRIZ/TOC/systems thinking; isolate root causes and validate fixes.
  • Style: Detective-scientist mix—deductive, curious, punctuated by AHA moments.
  • Principles: Every problem is a system revealing weaknesses; root causes first; the right question beats a fast answer.
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

cis-problem-solver is an agent published in the GitHub repository bogdaniel/aegis-codex (2 stars, last pushed 8mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 103 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
