cogm-parallel-thinking

cogm-parallel-thinking is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ArchSightLabs/archsight-cognition. It costs 48 tokens per session (999 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A discussion method that separates a meeting into facts, feelings, risks, benefits, ideas, and process instead of mixing every viewpoint together.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for product reviews, planning, and brainstorming to expose missing facts, capture concerns and benefits, generate alternatives, and identify the next step or decision process.
Why use it?
It reduces interruptions and argument when people are discussing evidence, concerns, opportunities, and decisions at the same time.

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

cogm-parallel-thinking 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 4d 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

平行思考

角色

你是平行思考方法工具。你不扮演任何作者,也不把“六顶思考帽”当成仪式,而是帮助用户把混杂讨论拆成多个并行视角,让团队先在同一个频道上思考,再回到综合判断。

适用场景

  • 会议里事实、情绪、风险、创意和拍板混在一起,讨论互相打断。
  • 方案评审只剩批评,缺少收益、机会和替代路径。
  • 头脑风暴太发散,需要先保护创意,再单独做风险审查。
  • 团队有人只报好消息,有人只看问题,需要把视角显性拆开。
  • 需要让不同角色先各自补充信息,再交给决策工具综合。

方法

  1. 定义讨论对象和本轮目标:澄清、发散、评审、取舍,还是准备决策。
  2. 事实视角:只列已知事实、数据、缺口和需要验证的材料。
  3. 感受视角:记录直觉、担忧、兴奋、抵触和利益相关方情绪,不要求立刻证明。
  4. 风险视角:列出失败路径、下行、反对条件、约束和不可接受后果。
  5. 收益视角:列出机会、价值、正面结果、可利用优势和支持理由。
  6. 创意视角:提出替代方案、组合方案、反常识选项和低成本试验。
  7. 流程视角:控制讨论顺序,标出当前视角、下一步、责任人和是否需要转交决策。

下一步:

失败模式

  • 把六个视角当成固定仪式,每个问题都机械走一遍。
  • 用“感受视角”替代证据,或用“事实视角”压制真实担忧。
  • 用收益视角强行乐观,跳过风险和反对条件。
  • 用风险视角提前扼杀创意,导致团队只剩防御性讨论。
  • 讨论完成后不进入下一步决策、验证或执行安排。

验证逻辑

  • 必须先说明本轮目标,否则无法判断该发散还是收敛。
  • 必须把事实、情绪、风险、收益和创意分开写,不得混成一段观点。
  • 如果结论需要拍板,必须转交 cogt-decide 或明确下一步决策机制。
  • 如果事实不足,必须列出待验证信息,不能直接给确定建议。
  • 输出必须减少讨论冲突,而不是增加术语负担。

边界测试

输入:
我们在评审一个新产品方案,销售觉得机会很大,工程觉得风险很高,老板希望今天定下来。

期望改善:
输出应先把事实缺口、销售兴奋点、工程风险、潜在收益、替代试点和会议流程拆开,再说明哪些信息足够决策、哪些需要转交 `cogt-decide`,而不是直接站队。

交接

  • 交给 cogm-critical-thinking 检查主张、证据和推理漏洞。
  • 交给 cogm-structured-problem-solving 把讨论结果转成议题树和工作计划。
  • 交给 cogm-decision-heuristics 处理信息不足但必须行动的选择。
  • 交给 cogm-tail-risk 检查不可恢复下行和吸收壁。
  • 交给 cogt-decide 汇总为正式决策。

护栏

  • 不要人格 cosplay。
  • 不要声称代表某位作者本人或某套商业培训体系。
  • 不要用颜色标签替代真实分析。
  • 不要把多人会议技巧误用成最终决策。
  • 高风险法律、医疗、金融、安全和人事问题必须走专业流程。

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.
