framework-selector

A research-method selector that chooses suitable analysis approaches for reports, such as SWOT for strategic position or scenario forecasting for uncertainty.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps select and reject methods for decision briefs, environment scans, causal analysis, strategy work, forecasts, and research reviews.
Why use it?
It prevents reports from using a familiar framework when another method better fits the question, evidence, audience, or time horizon.

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

framework-selector 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

Research framework selector

Use this skill during framework_select or when a role needs to justify why a framework belongs in the report.

Inputs

  • Research topic.
  • Audience and decision goal.
  • Output type: decision brief, full report, market research, forecast, causal analysis, review.
  • Time horizon and geography.
  • Available evidence and constraints.

Selection rules

If the report needs... Prefer Avoid
A compact decision brief OSTIN + evidence labels Full PESTLE/SWOT unless the brief asks for it
Macro environment scan PESTLE 5 Why unless a causal problem is explicit
Strategic position / opportunity SWOT + evidence labels SWOT without external evidence
Cause of an observed outcome 5 Why or driver tree Forcing exactly five layers
Future uncertainty Scenario forecasting Single-point predictions
Final report structure OSTIN + report template Framework jargon in executive summary

Output shape

## Framework recommendation
| Framework | Use | Phase | Reason | Caveat |
|---|---|---|---|---|

## Rejected frameworks
| Framework | Reason rejected |
|---|---|

Safety checks

  • 5 Why is optional and should stop when evidence runs out.
  • Scenario forecasting must include base/upside/downside, triggers, confidence, and uncertainty.
  • Do not imply that framework selection gives access to data sources.
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.

framework-selector is a skill published in the GitHub repository cintia09/CodeNook (5 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 2 tokens to every session and 380 once invoked, about $0.0000 per session on Opus 5. 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.
