Forced Analogy / Structural Transplant — map the problem onto a structurally similar system from a distant domain (immune system, air-traffic control, restaurant kitchen, jazz ensemble) and transfer its mechanisms back. Use when a solution works but feels derivative, when the industry playbook is exhausted, or when a…

Edward de Bono's Provocation (Po) technique — state something deliberately wrong or absurd about the problem, then extract useful "movement" from it instead of judging it. Use when a constraint feels unbreakable, when every design converges on the same shape, or to escape "the way it's always done". Triggers include…

Triggers: 'collective action problem', 'tragedy of the commons', 'free rider', 'everyone is acting in their own interest but the result is bad for all', 'why won't people contribute'…
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Cross-domain bridge thinking for stuck founders, creators, and builders. Finds pattern bridges from unrelated fields — biology, game design, physics, jazz, architecture, logistics — and maps them to your situation with explicit reasoning, pros/cons, and a first experiment. Use when stuck, plateaued, can't get…
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Use when the user asks for an idea generator, conceptual crossbreeding, mutation, evolution, recombination of existing ideas, or novel concepts derived from unlike sources; also use for follow-ups that evolve, cross, or lock elements of previously generated ideas. Do not trigger for generic brainstorming with no…
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Use when creative or marketing work risks premature convergence on the first plausible AI output, especially when benchmarks are present and must inform structure without causing imitation.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
