Flip core assumptions to reveal hidden constraints and alternative approaches - "what if the opposite were true?"
/plugin marketplace add rafaelcalleja/claude-market-place/plugin install claudekit-skills@claude-market-placeThis skill inherits all available tools. When active, it can use any tool Claude has access to.
Flip every assumption and see what still works. Sometimes the opposite reveals the truth.
Core principle: Inversion exposes hidden assumptions and alternative approaches.
| Normal Assumption | Inverted | What It Reveals |
|---|---|---|
| Cache to reduce latency | Add latency to enable caching | Debouncing patterns |
| Pull data when needed | Push data before needed | Prefetching, eager loading |
| Handle errors when occur | Make errors impossible | Type systems, contracts |
| Build features users want | Remove features users don't need | Simplicity >> addition |
| Optimize for common case | Optimize for worst case | Resilience patterns |
Problem: Users complain app is slow
Normal approach: Make everything faster (caching, optimization, CDN)
Inverted: Make things intentionally slower in some places
Insight: Strategic slowness can improve UX
This skill should be used when the user asks to "create a slash command", "add a command", "write a custom command", "define command arguments", "use command frontmatter", "organize commands", "create command with file references", "interactive command", "use AskUserQuestion in command", or needs guidance on slash command structure, YAML frontmatter fields, dynamic arguments, bash execution in commands, user interaction patterns, or command development best practices for Claude Code.
This skill should be used when the user asks to "create an agent", "add an agent", "write a subagent", "agent frontmatter", "when to use description", "agent examples", "agent tools", "agent colors", "autonomous agent", or needs guidance on agent structure, system prompts, triggering conditions, or agent development best practices for Claude Code plugins.
This skill should be used when the user asks to "create a hook", "add a PreToolUse/PostToolUse/Stop hook", "validate tool use", "implement prompt-based hooks", "use ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}", "set up event-driven automation", "block dangerous commands", or mentions hook events (PreToolUse, PostToolUse, Stop, SubagentStop, SessionStart, SessionEnd, UserPromptSubmit, PreCompact, Notification). Provides comprehensive guidance for creating and implementing Claude Code plugin hooks with focus on advanced prompt-based hooks API.
