latticework

latticework is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from deciqAI/knowledge-skills. It costs 120 tokens per session (1,544 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A way to examine one situation through several mental models from different fields instead of relying on a single explanation. Agreement between the models can strengthen confidence, while disagreement highlights questions to investigate.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps stress-test strategies, product decisions, business bets, and disputes where different stakeholders are using different ways of interpreting the situation.
Why use it?
It reduces blind spots when a decision involves several interacting factors, such as markets, incentives, psychology, and operations.

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

latticework 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 9d 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.

Latticework

Overview

Latticework is the practice of cross-wiring mental models from multiple disciplines on the same situation. Power comes from inter-connection: independent lenses converging = high-confidence signal; lenses diverging = unknown to investigate. When multiple forces align simultaneously they amplify — the lollapalooza effect (Munger, 1994). Composes with first-principles, second-order-thinking, probabilistic-thinking, and map-is-not-the-territory.

When to Use

  • Stakeholders keep raising non-overlapping objections — each is right from their model
  • Post-mortem shows failure was "outside the model we used"
  • "Our analysis is solid" — but only one framework was applied
  • Situation looks like a classic X but has anomalous features X cannot explain
  • Designing a strategy/product where market, psychology, operations, and incentives all interact
  • Judging an AI-boom / AI-adoption / AI-hype bet where "is it a bubble?" and "is it real?" are being argued through one lens each

Not when: problem is contained in one discipline; crisis triage (no time); decision too small for multi-model overhead.

Coaching Novices (Adaptive Front Door)

  • Engine mode: user has a concrete case → run The Process directly.
  • Coach mode: user is unfamiliar → guide step by step.

In Coach mode, respond one step at a time. Each [WAIT] is a hard stop — output only that step's question, then stop.

  1. One-liner: facts don't become knowledge until they hang on a latticework of theory (Munger's rule #1).
  2. Check fit: has one model already failed or felt incomplete? If yes, proceed.
  3. Elicit: what models applied so far? What disciplines are missing?

latticework is a skill published in the GitHub repository deciqAI/knowledge-skills (10 stars, last pushed 10d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 120 tokens to every session and 1,544 once invoked, about $0.0006 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 2026-09-03.
