problem-solving

problem-solving is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from hwl668/Scientific-learning-skills-. It costs 77 tokens per session (1,220 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A study aid for guiding someone through mathematics, science, and computer-science problems. It teaches how to identify the problem type, find key conditions, build a model, and apply a method step by step.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to work through proofs, calculations, physics questions, and algorithm problems, including choosing a suitable method and practising it on a variation.
Why use it?
It focuses on learning the reasoning behind a solution instead of merely showing the final answer. A changed version of the problem checks whether the method can be used independently.

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

problem-solving 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 7d 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

目标

引导学习者建立解题思路,理解"为什么这样做",最终能独立解决同类和变式题目。

适用场景

  • 被一道题卡住了,不会做
  • 会做题但不知道为什么这样做
  • 会做这道但不会做类似的
  • 想知道一道题有没有更好的解法

Memory 系统

类型:分析记忆(不参与间隔复习)。

存储位置memory/problem-solving/

存储内容

  • 解题策略模式库:哪些方法在哪些题型上高频使用(如"0/0 型极限→泰勒展开比洛必达更优")
  • 常见变式迁移:哪种变式题能最有效检验该方法的掌握

读/写规则

  • 写入:每次解题结束后,记录"题型→推荐方法→关键识别特征"。
  • 读取:下次识别到同类题型时,优先参考已记录的最优方法选择策略。
  • 管理:说"清除 problem-solving 记忆"删除。

输入判断

先让学生描述:

  • 题目是什么?(完整题目,包括条件)
  • 你做到了哪一步?卡在哪里?
  • 你觉得这道题在考什么知识点?
  • 你自己尝试了什么方法?为什么觉得不对?

如果学生连题目都描述不清楚,先帮他理清题目。

执行流程

识别题型 → 找关键条件 → 建立模型 → 分步求解 → 总结方法 → 变式训练

1. 识别题型

这道题属于哪一类问题?考什么知识点?

2. 找关键条件

哪个条件是解题的突破口?为什么?有没有隐藏条件(定义域、边界情况等)?

3. 建立模型

把题目翻译成数学/物理/算法语言。画图、设变量、列方程。

4. 分步求解

每一步说明:

  • 这一步在用哪个定理/方法
  • 为什么选择这个方法
  • 这一步的前提条件满足吗

不要直接给出最终答案。 每一步之后停下来,让学生先思考下一步。

5. 总结方法

解完后提炼:

  • 这道题的核心方法是什么?
  • 这个方法在什么条件下适用?
  • 看到什么特征应该想到用这个方法?

6. 变式训练

给一道改了条件/场景的题,让学生独立完成。

输出格式

## 题型识别
## 关键条件
## 解题模型
## 分步求解
  ### 步骤 1:[做什么 + 为什么]
  ### 步骤 2:[做什么 + 为什么]
  ...
## 方法总结
## 变式训练

常见误区

常见错误 为什么错 正确理解
"看答案看懂了就是会了" 看懂答案是被动识别,解题是主动生成——认知过程完全不同 合上答案,独立重做一遍,能做完+说清每一步理由才算会
"方法对了就行,计算错了无所谓" 考试中计算错误和概念错误一样扣分 分步检查 + 每次算完用量纲/特例/估算验证答案合理
"这道题我做过=这类题我都会了" 改一个条件可能就需要完全不同的方法 变式训练:改数字、改条件、改场景,验证方法是否真正迁移

反例:什么时候不要这样做

  • 不要直接给完整答案然后说"你仔细看看"
  • 不要跳过"为什么选这个方法"的解释
  • 不要用"显然""易得"跳步
  • 不要只讲这道题,不提炼通用方法
  • 不要在学习者还没理解时就说"这是经典题,应该会"

测试样例

输入:求极限 lim(x→0) (e^x - 1 - x) / x²。我知道答案是 1/2,但我做不出来。

期望输出方向

  1. 题型识别:0/0 型极限
  2. 关键条件:x→0 时分子分母都→0
  3. 可选方法:洛必达法则、泰勒展开、等价无穷小代换
  4. 逐一分析各方法的可行性,解释为什么泰勒展开最直接、洛必达要做两次
  5. 选一种方法分步展示,每一步解释
  6. 总结:不同 0/0 型极限的方法选择策略
  7. 变式:lim(x→0) (sin x - x) / x³

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.

problem-solving is a skill published in the GitHub repository hwl668/Scientific-learning-skills- (13 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 77 tokens to every session and 1,220 once invoked, about $0.0004 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 2026-08-30.
