design-thinking-skill

design-thinking-skill is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from peterfei/forge-skill. It costs 76 tokens per session (2,705 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A structured design method that starts by understanding people’s experiences, then defines problems, develops ideas, and tests prototypes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to study users, reframe a vague request, generate options, make early prototypes, and improve ideas through feedback.
Why use it?
It reduces the risk of building a technically good solution for a problem users do not actually have.

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

design-thinking-skill 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.

"Design thinking is a human-centered approach to innovation." — Tim Brown, IDEO CEO

激活条件与触发词

  • 直接调用:「用设计思维分析...」「共情地图」「发散构思」
  • 语义触发:面对模糊的产品/服务创新需求需深入理解用户
  • 组合调用:「先用设计思维定义问题,再用精益创业验证」

方法框架概览

设计思维的核心是以用户共情为起点重新定义问题,它通过发散收敛交替、快速原型迭代、跨学科协作来避免为错误的问题找到正确的答案。

核心原理(3-7个,每个须附 ≥2 个跨域证据)

原理 1: 以用户共情为起点

一句话定义:不是问用户要什么,而是观察和感受他们真正经历什么。

跨域证据

  1. 产品设计:IDEO 重新设计鼠标时工程师在木材店试手感而非画图(来源:Kelley, The Art of Innovation, 2001)
  2. 医疗保健:Embrace 婴儿保温袋团队去尼泊尔农村观察发现电力稀缺是真正瓶颈(来源:Stanford d.school, Embrace Case, 2008)

应用方式:在解决问题前花至少 30% 时间观察和访谈用户——看他们在什么情境下做什么。

局限:小样本观察可能不代表整个用户群,需要定量验证补充。

原理 2: 问题定义比解决方案更重要

一句话定义:为错误的问题找到最佳答案仍然是错误答案。

跨域证据

  1. 企业转型:IBM 不卖更快的电脑而重新定义为"帮助 CEO 做更好的决策"(来源:Gerstner, Who Says Elephants Can't Dance?, 2002)
  2. 金融产品:Bank of America Keep the Change 不定义储蓄工具而定义为"刷卡自动存零钱"(来源:IDEO, Keep the Change Case, 2005)

应用方式:用 HMW 格式重定义问题至少 3 次,选最有启发性的角度。

局限:过度重定义可能导致拖延。需在"定义充分"和"开始行动"间平衡。

原理 3: 发散与收敛的节奏

一句话定义:先尽可能多地产生想法,再批判性地选择和聚焦。

跨域证据

  1. 创新工厂:Google X 登月工厂鼓励不可能想法,但选择时用物理可行性严格过滤(来源:Teller, Google X, 2013)
  2. 动画制作:Pixar Braintrust 让所有人无保留贡献然后导演决定方向(来源:Catmull, Creativity Inc., 2014)

应用方式:发散阶段禁止说"不行""但是"。收敛阶段用用户数据而非个人偏好选择。

局限:发散需时间。紧急项目必须在限定时间内完成。

原理 4: 快速原型降低试错成本

一句话定义:最低保真度的原型在最快时间获得最真实的反馈。

跨域证据

  1. 消费品:3M 开发 Post-it 用自制粘合剂测试(来源:3M, Post-it Origin Story)
  2. VR:Palmer Luckey 用泡沫板和手机屏做 Oculus 第一原型(来源:Luckey, Oculus Kickstarter, 2012)

应用方式:第一个原型须在 1 天内做出来。纸、胶带、PPT、对话脚本都是有效材料。

局限:低保真原型在某些领域(如手术器械)不仅无用还危险。

原理 5: 跨学科协作产生突破

一句话定义:不同背景的人碰撞出的方案任何单一学科都想不出。

跨域证据

  1. 科技:初代 iPhone 诞生于软件工程师、硬件工程师和设计师的争论(来源:Isaacson, Steve Jobs, 2011)
  2. 社会创新:IDEO.org 项目中工程师和人类学家一起下田间(来源:IDEO.org, Field Guide to HCD, 2015)

应用方式:团队中必须有至少 3 种不同背景的人。没有则引入外部观点。

局限:跨学科协作沟通成本高,领导力不足会变各说各话。

操作协议(Agentic Protocol)

Step 1: 问题分类

适用信号

  • 需要理解"用户真正要什么"
  • 产品定义模糊的早期创新阶段
  • 需要打破按现有方案优化的思维定式

不适用信号

  • 问题已明确定义只差执行(适用 Agile/精益)
  • 纯粹技术优化(适用 TRIZ)
  • 紧急运营问题

Step 2: 设计思维式分析

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.

design-thinking-skill is a skill published in the GitHub repository peterfei/forge-skill (13 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 76 tokens to every session and 2,705 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.
