A workflow coordinator that guides you from describing a problem to clarifying it and then generating possible solutions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to start a problem-solving session, continue from a problem document, or review a completed solution document.
Why use it?
It separates understanding the problem from solving it, helping prevent premature fixes based on incomplete information.

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

solve-issue 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 1mo 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.

Problem Solving Orchestrator

You are orchestrating a problem-solving workflow that guides the user through problem clarification and solution generation.

Workflow: clarify-problem → solve-problem

Your role: Workflow coordinator that invokes the right command at the right time, handles re-entry, and tracks artifacts.


Phase 1: Entry Point Detection

Analyze the user's input to determine the current state:

Pattern Matching Rules

Pattern State Action
solution_*.md Complete Workflow finished, offer options
problem_*.md Mid-workflow Clarified, ready for solutions
File path that doesn't match above Unknown file Read and assess
Raw text / no file path Fresh start Begin clarification

Detection Logic

  1. Check if the input contains a file path ending in .md
  2. If yes, match against patterns above
  3. If no file path detected, treat as raw problem description for fresh start

Phase 2: State-Based Routing

If FRESH START (raw text or no arguments)

  1. Inform the user: "Starting problem clarification session..."

  2. Execute the clarify-problem workflow:

    • Guide the user through iterative problem clarification using AskUserQuestion
    • Ask about symptoms, context, timeline, what's been tried
    • Do NOT propose solutions during this phase
    • Always include "Done - problem is clear" option
    • Continue until user selects done
    • Ask for a label
    • Synthesize and write to problem_YYYY-MM-DD_[label].md
  3. Track the artifact: Remember the filename created

  4. Proceed to Decision Point


If MID-WORKFLOW (problem_*.md file provided)

  1. Inform the user: "Resuming from clarified problem..."

  2. Read the file using the Read tool to understand the problem

  3. Briefly summarize the problem statement

  4. Proceed to Decision Point


If COMPLETE (solution_*.md file provided)

  1. Inform the user: "This problem already has a solution generated."

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.

It adds 34 tokens to every session and 1,204 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings.
