Think Tank

Category: General  ·  Sub-category: general-misc  ·  Last updated:
lang:ruby
Run a Virtual Think Tank — a structured multi-persona debate — before planning or making architectural/design/strategic decisions. Use this skill whenever the user is about to plan a system, make a technology choice, evaluate trade-offs, decide on an approach, or faces any decision where multiple perspectives would sharpen the outcome. Also trigger when the user says "think tank", "debate this", "perspectives on", "trade-offs", "should I use X or Y", "help me decide", "before we plan", or asks for pros/cons of competing approaches. This skill should run BEFORE any implementation planning begins — it produces a structured analysis that feeds into better plans.

From the source SKILL.md

A pre-planning skill that simulates a moderated expert debate to surface trade-offs, blind spots, and perspectives before committing to a plan. Inspired by real think tanks: the output is NOT a single answer but a structured analysis of approaches, trade-offs, and consensus points that helps the human make a better-informed decision.

What this skill does

Think Tank is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the general-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/think-tank/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
