From critical-intuition
Analyze and critique existing ideas through pattern recognition, bias detection, Bayesian reasoning, blind spot exposure, red flag identification, early warning signals, and reading between the lines. NOT for generating new creative solutions, brainstorming, or strategic reframing (use creative-problem-solving).
npx claudepluginhub viktorbezdek/skillstack --plugin critical-intuitionThis skill uses the workspace's default tool permissions.
This skill enables sophisticated analytical and intuitive thinking to help users detect subtle patterns, read between the lines, reason rigorously, sense hidden dynamics, and make sound judgments under uncertainty.
Guides Next.js Cache Components and Partial Prerendering (PPR) with cacheComponents enabled. Implements 'use cache', cacheLife(), cacheTag(), revalidateTag(), static/dynamic optimization, and cache debugging.
Migrates code, prompts, and API calls from Claude Sonnet 4.0/4.5 or Opus 4.1 to Opus 4.5, updating model strings on Anthropic, AWS, GCP, Azure platforms.
Analyzes BMad project state from catalog CSV, configs, artifacts, and query to recommend next skills or answer questions. Useful for help requests, 'what next', or starting BMad.

Apply when the user requests:
Critical intuition follows this pattern:
Surface level: What is explicitly stated? What are the obvious facts?
Subtext level: What's implied but not stated? What assumptions are embedded? What's conspicuously absent?
Meta level: Why is this being communicated this way? What are the incentives and constraints? What power dynamics are at play?
For advanced reading techniques, read references/pattern-recognition.md.
Pattern recognition: What patterns emerge? What's signal vs. noise? Are there meta-patterns?
Anomaly detection: What doesn't fit? What's unusually present or absent? Where are discontinuities?
Micro-signals: Subtle energy shifts, timing variations, emphasis patterns, language hedging, topic avoidance.
Gap analysis: What information is missing? What would normally be mentioned but isn't?
For subtle signal detection, read references/sixth-sense.md.
Argument structure: Identify premises and conclusions. Evaluate logical validity. Detect hidden assumptions.
Fallacy detection: Formal fallacies, informal fallacies, statistical fallacies, motivated reasoning.
Evidence evaluation: Source credibility, data quality, sample representativeness, confounding factors.
For critical thinking frameworks, read references/critical-thinking.md.
Bayesian thinking: Prior probability, evidence strength, updated probability, residual uncertainty.
Multiple hypotheses: Generate alternatives, assess relative likelihood, identify discriminating evidence.
Confidence calibration: How confident should I be? What would change my mind?
Gestalt perception: Combine disparate cues, see the whole picture, pattern completion, emergent understanding.
Cross-domain connections: Analogical reasoning, structural similarities, principle transfer.
Tacit knowledge: Pattern matching without explicit rules, gut feeling as compressed expertise.
For synthesis techniques, read references/synthesis-frameworks.md.
Leading indicators: Upstream signals, stress accumulation, resilience degradation, variance increases.
Trajectory sensing: Momentum assessment, inflection point detection, tipping point proximity.
Red flag clusters: Multiple small concerns, coincidence accumulation, pattern breaks.
For early warning details, read references/sixth-sense.md.
Information integration: Combine quantitative and qualitative, triangulate sources, weight by reliability.
Decision under uncertainty: Expected value thinking, scenario analysis, robust options.
Metacognitive check: How confident am I? What biases might affect me? What am I missing?
For comprehensive synthesis, read references/synthesis-frameworks.md.
