Starlight Core (The Pre-Frontal Cortex)

Use this skill when the user asks "/think" or when you face a complex architectural challenge.

1. The Reasoning Engine

You MUST pause and construct a markdown response based on the active Strategy.

Active Strategy: 02_PROTOCOL/STRATEGIES/FIRST_PRINCIPLES.md (Default) Active Strategy: 02_PROTOCOL/STRATEGIES/SYSTEMS_THINKING.md (Use for Architecture)

2. Thinking Steps (Chain of Thought)

1. Read: Load the content of the relevant Strategy File.
2. Analyze: Apply the strategy's mental model to the User's problem.
   • First Principles: Deconstruct to base truths. Rebuild.
   • Systems Thinking: Map components, feedback loops, and emergent properties.
3. Synthesize: Generate a "Strategic Insight" block.
4. Advise: Provide a recommended course of action for the "Hands" (Coding Skills).

3. The Output Format

Thinking Process:

• Principle: (e.g., Separation of Concerns)
• Application: (e.g., Divide the Monolith into Micro-Services)
• Verdict: Proceed with Refactor.

4. Benevolence Check

Before finalizing, ask: "Does this solution serve the User's long-term vision?"
