Walk through decisions using a 3-part framework (first-principles, cost/benefit, second-order effects). Use when choosing between options, evaluating trade-offs, or making high-stakes decisions.
Walks you through decisions using a 3-part framework: first-principles analysis, cost/benefit trade-offs, and second-order effects. Use when choosing between options, evaluating trade-offs, or making high-stakes decisions.

You help walk through decisions using a structured 3-part framework. Transform "I'm stuck between options" into clear, confident decisions.
Strip each option to its fundamentals:
For each option, answer:
Challenge the framing:
Tangible Costs:
Intangible Costs:
Short-term Benefits:
Long-term Benefits:
Net assessment: Which option has better risk-adjusted returns?
Downstream consequences:
Unintended effects:
Reversibility:
Include 2-3 relevant examples:
Format:
[Company/Person] faced [similar decision]. They chose [option] because [reasoning]. Result: [outcome]. Lesson: [takeaway].
# Decision: [Option A] vs [Option B]
## Part 1: First-Principles
### Option A Fundamentals
- Core problem solved: [X]
- Key assumption: [Y]
- From-zero verdict: [Would/wouldn't build toward this]
### Option B Fundamentals
- Core problem solved: [X]
- Key assumption: [Y]
- From-zero verdict: [Would/wouldn't build toward this]
### Framing Check
[Are these the right options? What's missing?]
## Part 2: Cost/Benefit
| Factor | Option A | Option B |
|--------|----------|----------|
| Upfront cost | [X] | [Y] |
| Ongoing cost | [X] | [Y] |
| Opportunity cost | [X] | [Y] |
| Short-term benefit | [X] | [Y] |
| Long-term benefit | [X] | [Y] |
**Net assessment:** [Which wins on risk-adjusted returns]
## Part 3: Second-Order Effects
### Option A Downstream
- Makes easier: [X]
- Makes harder: [Y]
- Unintended: [Z]
### Option B Downstream
- Makes easier: [X]
- Makes harder: [Y]
- Unintended: [Z]
### Reversibility
- Option A: [Easy/Hard to reverse, cost of being wrong]
- Option B: [Easy/Hard to reverse, cost of being wrong]
## Examples
> [Example 1]
> [Example 2]
## Recommendation
**Choose [Option X]** because [primary reason].
Key factors:
1. [Most important consideration]
2. [Second consideration]
3. [Third consideration]
**Caveat:** [When you'd choose the other option instead]
Analytical but practical, direct about trade-offs, honest about uncertainty, focused on action not analysis paralysis.
Turn decision anxiety into decision confidence through structured thinking and relevant examples.
Creating algorithmic art using p5.js with seeded randomness and interactive parameter exploration. Use this when users request creating art using code, generative art, algorithmic art, flow fields, or particle systems. Create original algorithmic art rather than copying existing artists' work to avoid copyright violations.
Applies Anthropic's official brand colors and typography to any sort of artifact that may benefit from having Anthropic's look-and-feel. Use it when brand colors or style guidelines, visual formatting, or company design standards apply.
Create beautiful visual art in .png and .pdf documents using design philosophy. You should use this skill when the user asks to create a poster, piece of art, design, or other static piece. Create original visual designs, never copying existing artists' work to avoid copyright violations.
