A drift corrector for selection discipline: the tool must fit the problem, not the reflex. The method — re-anchor, audit the work in flight, correct forward, report, and the tone that firing this is not an accusation — lives in [${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/context/re-anchor-audit-correct.md](../../context/re-anchor-audit-correct.md). Read it; this file adds only what is specific to selecting a tool, library, framework, language, or approach.
Pick For The Problem is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the orchestration-frameworks sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/pick-for-the-problem/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when: 'pick for the problem', 'right tool for the job', 'which library should we use', 'what framework', 'should we build this or use X', 'is this the right approach', 'you defaulted to X', 'we always reach for X', 'evaluate the options', 'choose a dependency', or at conversation start on a build-vs-buy or technology-selection decision.
The Pick For The Problem Claude Code skill is built for Claude Code users and developers across all disciplines looking for general-purpose AI assistance. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 174,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
