Narrative Opposition Web · lyndonkl bundle
Builds a four-corner opposition web for narrative nonfiction and stops the writer from casting whoever lost as the villain. Runs Truby's four-corner worksheet (shared central moral problem, per-corner value clusters, distinct routes of attack, corner-to-corner conflict), the best-possible-opponent audit (same goal, necessity, relentlessness, value conflict, the double, power parity, justification in the opponent's own voice), the Opponent Warrant evidence test that demotes undocumented antagonists to rivals or constraints, and a drive-section collapse check that catches a web that was decorative. Use when planning a piece with competing parties, when an antagonist feels flat or cartoonish, when the protagonist is a system rather than a person, or when user mentions opposition web, four-corner opposition, antagonist, opponent, villain, steelman the other side, character web, who is the bad guy here.

Special Situation Models · lyndonkl bundle
Values companies the standard DCF cannot handle, across five branches — distress (failure probability from a bond price or rating, blended with the distress-sale outcome), financial service firms (equity excess return and FCFE against regulatory capital, since a bank gets no FCFF and no optimal debt ratio), private companies (total beta for an undiversified owner, Silber and bid-ask illiquidity discounts), cyclical and commodity firms (mid-cycle normalized earnings), and young negative-earnings firms (a revenue and margin path plus survival odds, emitted as a dcf-valuation-engine payload). Also walks a private owner's value to an IPO offer price line by line. Use when valuing a bank, insurer, startup, distressed firm, private business, miner or deep cyclical, when pricing an IPO or a sale to a public buyer, or when asked about probability of distress, total beta, illiquidity discount, excess return models, normalized earnings, or negative-earnings valuation.

Geometric Algebraic Bridge · lyndonkl bundle
Presents a math or ML concept simultaneously in geometric form (picture, transformation, region, surface) and algebraic form (formula, matrix, derivation), then writes the explicit one-sentence bridge that says "these are the same thing because…". The signature 3Blue1Brown move applied to any vector/matrix concept. Use when a learner has one view but not the other ("I understand the formula but not what it means" or "I see the picture but can't write it down"), when introducing a concept that genuinely needs both views to land (eigendecomposition, SVD, dot product, attention, gradient, covariance), or when the user mentions "geometric meaning", "intuition behind", "picture for", or "why does the formula look like that".

▌
Conf Pipeline Orchestration · lyndonkl
The multi-agent communication and orchestration discipline for a staged pipeline whose stages each carry calibrated uncertainty. Agents talk through files with defined schemas and status fields (never free text); the orchestrator passes input paths plus an explicit output path plus a return contract, verifies each artifact's confidence before advancing a stage gate, holds and integrates worker outputs rather than passing them through, freezes its protected control logic against a checksum, maintains a diversity floor, hardens the fragile handoffs not the resilient hubs, and names the substitution effect every optimized score produces. Conference-agnostic; preloaded by a pipeline orchestrator. Use when coordinating a staged agent pipeline, designing the orchestrator-worker contract, or deciding when to advance, reconcile, or escalate. Trigger keywords - pipeline orchestration, stage gates, structured agent communication, invariant guard, confidence propagation, conflict surfacing.

Conf Preference Elicitation · lyndonkl
Build a personalized preference profile from a small number of well-chosen, cluster-grounded questions instead of a long survey. Represents the person's interests as an uncertainty region over the theme map, picks the single highest-information-gain choice-based question (contrasting real talks from different clusters), balances exploiting known interests against exploring uncertain ones, deliberately injects outlier probes to fight selection bias, and stops as soon as the schedule would be stable. Also elicits the user-owned objective weights and hard constraints. Interactive — runs where it can actually ask the person. Conference-agnostic. Use to turn a theme map into a preference profile, to decide what to ask a conference attendee, or to elicit scheduling priorities. Trigger keywords - preference elicitation, ask few questions, information gain, choice-based questions, selection bias probe, objective weights, attendee preferences.

Mlb Category State Analyzer · lyndonkl bundle
Computes the weekly category state for a Yahoo H2H Categories matchup across all 10 scoring categories (R, HR, RBI, SB, OBP, K, ERA, WHIP, QS, SV). Pulls current totals from Yahoo, builds rest-of-week per-cat projections from roster + schedule, then DELEGATES matchup/per-cat win-probability math to `matchup-win-probability-sim`. Consumes the sim's `per_cat_win_probability` and `matchup_win_probability` to derive cat_position, cat_pressure, cat_reachability, and cat_punt_score, and emits a "push 6, punt N" plan that drives waiver, streaming, and lineup decisions.

▌
Paper Three Pass Extraction · lyndonkl
Domain-neutral methodology for autonomously extracting structured notes from a single academic paper via three escalating passes. Pass 1 (inspectional, ~10-15 min) reads title, abstract, intro, section headings, conclusion, references at a glance, then applies the Five Cs framework (Category, Context, Correctness, Contributions, Clarity). Pass 2 (content grasp, ~30-60 min) reads the full paper skipping proofs, answers main-argument / Big-Question / hypotheses / figure-by-figure / references / confusions. Pass 3 (deep understanding, ~1-4 hours, reserved for important papers) virtually re-implements, challenges every assumption, identifies what is NOT said, asks the falsifiability question. The methodology is internal to the agent applying it - questions are answered against the paper's content, never asked of the operator. Use when an extraction agent needs to convert dense academic prose into structured machine-and-human-readable notes - bio papers, CS papers, ML papers, statistics, math, any field.

Negative Contrastive Framing · lyndonkl bundle
Defines concepts, quality criteria, and boundaries by showing what they are NOT -- using anti-goals, near-miss examples, and failure patterns to create crisp decision criteria where positive definitions alone are ambiguous. Use when clarifying fuzzy boundaries, defining quality criteria, teaching by counterexample, preventing common mistakes, setting design guardrails, disambiguating similar concepts, refining requirements through anti-patterns, or when user mentions near-miss examples, anti-goals, what not to do, negative examples, counterexamples, or boundary clarification.

Prioritization Effort Impact · lyndonkl bundle
Transforms overwhelming backlogs into clear, actionable priorities by mapping items on a 2x2 effort-vs-impact matrix, identifying quick wins (high impact, low effort), big bets, time sinks, and fill-ins. Use when ranking backlogs, deciding what to do first, prioritizing feature roadmaps, triaging bugs or technical debt, allocating resources across initiatives, identifying low-hanging fruit, evaluating strategic options, or when user mentions prioritization, quick wins, effort-impact matrix, high-impact low-effort, big bets, or "what should we do first?".

Valuation Consistency Checks · lyndonkl bundle
Checks a finished valuation for internal consistency across its artifacts — currency agreement between cash flows and discount rate, terminal growth against the riskfree ceiling, reinvestment that pays for the growth assumed, perpetual excess returns, capital weights and beta range, equity bridge arithmetic, tax rates, and the hard constraints a company's type imposes. Grades each finding ERROR, WARN or INFO and exits 1 on any error, so it can gate a pipeline. Use before accepting a DCF, when reviewing someone else's model, when a value looks too high, or when checking terminal value assumptions, growth-versus-reinvestment consistency, currency consistency, or an equity bridge that does not tie.

Abstraction Concrete Examples · lyndonkl bundle
Builds structured abstraction ladders that translate high-level principles into concrete, actionable examples across 3-5 levels. Bridges communication gaps, reveals hidden assumptions, and tests whether abstract ideas work in practice. Use when explaining concepts at different expertise levels, moving between abstract principles and concrete implementation, identifying edge cases by testing ideas against scenarios, designing layered documentation, decomposing complex problems into actionable steps, or bridging strategy-execution gaps.

Auction Winners Curse Haircut · lyndonkl bundle
Applies a Bayesian haircut to a bid valuation for common-value auctions where winning is itself evidence the bidder over-estimated. Takes a raw valuation, a value-type classification (common_value / private_value / mixed), the number of informed bidders N, and a signal-dispersion estimate, and returns an adjusted valuation. Domain-neutral and reusable across fantasy FAAB, prediction markets, M&A bids, ad-auction budgets, and any generic bidding context. Use when user mentions "winner's curse", "common value auction", "valuation haircut", "adverse valuation", "Bayesian bid adjustment", or "over-paying in auction".

Hypotheticals Counterfactuals · lyndonkl bundle
Applies "what if" thinking to explore alternative scenarios, test assumptions, understand causal relationships, and prepare for uncertainty. Guides through counterfactual reasoning, scenario exploration, pre-mortem analysis, and stress testing decisions against alternative futures. Use when exploring alternative scenarios, testing assumptions through "what if" questions, understanding causal relationships, conducting pre-mortem analysis, stress testing decisions, or when user mentions counterfactuals, hypothetical scenarios, thought experiments, alternative futures, what-if analysis, or needs to challenge assumptions.

Opponent Archetype Classifier · lyndonkl bundle
Classifies an opposing player, manager, or agent into one of a configurable archetype set using Bayesian inference over observed behavior (roster composition, transaction pattern, lineup moves, trade activity). Domain-neutral scaffold -- callers supply the archetype taxonomy (names, priors, characteristic feature distributions) and observed features; the skill returns a normalized posterior, MAP archetype, classification confidence, feature-contribution breakdown, and best-response hints. Use when modeling opponents, classifying player types, performing Bayesian archetype inference, producing opponent posteriors, or when user mentions opponent archetype, classify opponent, Bayesian archetype inference, player type classification, opponent modeling, or archetype posterior.
