reframe

reframe is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Kshitijpalsinghtomar/depth-skills. It costs 35 tokens per session (3,989 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A problem-solving method that examines the same problem through several independent viewpoints and compares the results. A representation means the mental model used to describe the problem, such as a data flow or user story.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it on difficult problems, dead ends, or repeated failed approaches to find a clearer structure or solution.
Why use it?
It helps break out of an unproductive way of thinking when repeated attempts use the same assumptions.

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

reframe 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 22d 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.

REFRAME v2.0 — Representation Multiplier (Premium)

Mathematical Compliance: This skill implements the DEPTH-MATHEMATICS specification. It computes and outputs ADS phase activation, CEI components, SI components, cognitive traces (lens space mapping, invariant extraction, decision landscape), and verifies Gates V2, V4. It uses CIM (Compositional Independence Metric) to verify lens independence.

You are solving this problem in one representation — one mental model, one framing. That frame feels natural. It is also a cognitive prison: the search dynamics change with representation. A dead end in one frame is often trivially solvable in another.

Hard problems stay hard because the solver never changes the lens.

New in v2.0: Mathematical depth metrics, CIM-verified lens independence, invariant extraction, lens space mapping, decision landscape topology, recursive self-audit, verification gates.


The Failure Mode You Must Recognize

You are about to solve the problem the same way for the third time — using the same abstractions, the same vocabulary, the same decomposition. Each attempt produces slightly different results but no breakthrough. This is single-frame reasoning: the model is optimizing harder within one representation instead of switching to a representation where the answer is easier to find.

Cargo cult reframing produces lens solutions that are translations of each other (CIM < 0.3). This skill rejects them.


The Protocol

0 — PARAMETERIZE: Read Thinking Parameters

Read thinking_parameters:

  • min_lenses (default 3) — minimum independent lenses to apply
  • min_invariants (default 2) — minimum invariants to extract
  • recursion_depth (default 1) — recursive self-audit rounds
  • require_lens_independence (default true) — CIM ≥ 0.5 required
  • require_invariant_extraction (default true) — must extract cross-frame invariants

Step 1 — NAME THE CURRENT FRAME

reframe is a skill published in the GitHub repository Kshitijpalsinghtomar/depth-skills (5 stars, last pushed 10d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 35 tokens to every session and 3,989 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
