/deconstructTriggers a first-principles analysis of the given topic, surfacing hidden assumptions and rebuilding foundational understanding.
/exploreForces exploratory thinking that delays commitment and retains competing interpretations for a given question or topic.
/vault-thinkApplies a 10-principle structured thinking framework to analyze a problem and saves the analysis as a vault note with frontmatter and wikilinks.
