# Assess Context

> AI context assessment — evaluating problem malleability, mapping structural rigidity versus flexibility, analyzing transformation pressure, and estimating capacity to adapt. Use when a complex task feels stuck and it is unclear whether to push through or pivot, before a significant approach change to assess whether the current reasoning structure can support it, when accumulated workarounds suggest the underlying approach may be wrong, or as a periodic structural health check during extended multi-step tasks.

# 評脈

評今推脈為可塑——識何剛、何柔、變壓何積、今法可適否。

## 用

- 繁務似卡而不知續或轉→用
- 大法變前評今推構可支否→用
- 累變通示底法或誤→用
- `heal` 或 `awareness` 識偏而適應（續、調、重建）不清→用
- 脈長而不知存何重建何→用
- 久多步務之構檢→用

## 入

- **必**：今務脈與推態（隱含）
- **可**：發評之憂（如「吾恆加變通」）
- **可**：擬轉向（法當為何）
- **可**：前評以析趨

## 行

### 一：錄推形

無判錄今推法之構件。

分各件：

- **骨**：難變；變之則諸下游連動
- **肉**：易變；可換不影他件
- **疤**：示構題之變通；常為偽骨之肉

圖依：何件依何？多依之骨件為承載。無依之肉件可棄。

得：完錄示今法所成、何剛、何柔、何處顯壓（變通）。錄當揭錄前未明之構。

敗：錄難構（法太亂不能分）→自為發——構透明度低示剛度高。始於可見而註不透區。

### 二：圖變壓

識推今法向變之力與抗之力。

估衡：變壓增、穩、減乎？

得：影今法力之明像。壓大過抗→轉宜。抗大過壓→今法當續。

敗：壓圖含糊（壓抗皆不強）→前推：壓增否？變通累否？「今足而退」較表壓更大。

### 三：評推剛

定今法柔否——可適或破？

得：剛分附各維具證。分揭法可吸變或須重建。

敗：諸維皆低分（稱高柔）→細探「神模」維：有無一關結或設諸他依？若有則柔為幻——一錯設崩全構。

### 四：估變能

評實際轉或適今法之能。

1. **脈窗餘**：新推餘空？大餘=高能。近限=低能
2. **轉時資存**：法變→何可承前？善子務出存轉；繫舊法之推鏈不存
3. **復工可達**：MEMORY.md 可捕關發前轉乎？用者可供加脈乎？相關檔仍可達乎？
4. **用者忍因**：用者示急否？多正示忍降。明「慢來」示高忍

變能非僅理——含今會具限。

得：誠評變向之能，計技與關因。

敗：變能低（脈限、關信險失）→任轉前先存：要發要、註關、適時更 MEMORY.md。無存而轉劣於不轉。

### 五：分變備

合諸評為備分。

文分附：

- 分標（READY / PREPARE / INVEST / CRITICAL / DEFER）
- 各維要發
- 薦下動
- 何信會變分

得：明、有由之分附具薦動。分當似結非猜。

敗：分含糊→默 PREPARE——減剛（明設、去變通）有值不論全轉是否生。備改善法不論續或變。

## 驗

- [ ] 構錄完附骨/肉/疤分
- [ ] 變壓圖（外、內、抗）
- [ ] 剛跨多維評附具證
- [ ] 變能評含實會限
- [ ] 備分定附證理
- [ ] 由分定具下動
- [ ] 重評觸定

## 忌

- **唯評技法**：脈備含用者關因。技柔而生用者怒之法較表更剛
- **沉本為剛**：前工非構剛。已工或有值不論法變否。分「不能變」（剛）於「不欲變」（沉本）
- **評為避**：assess-context 為避難決而呼→評必設計含糊。壓明則行
- **忽變通為信**：變通乃疤——構受壓而補非正適之證。多變通示次壓更可破
- **混剛於諾**：諾法（明擇、基證）異於剛法（依與設鎖）。諾可由決變；剛唯由重構變

## 參

- `assess-form` —— 此技適 AI 推脈之多系評模
- `adapt-architecture` —— 分為 READY 用構適律於轉
- `heal` —— 評揭構外偏時深子系掃
- `center` —— 立誠評所需之衡基
- `coordinate-reasoning` —— 管評賴之信新
