rethink

Agent skill fromagenticnotetaking/arscontexta

Challenge system assumptions against accumulated evidence. Triages observations and tensions, detects patterns, generates proposals. The scientific method applied to knowledge systems. Triggers on "/rethink", "review observations", "challenge assumptions", "what have I learned".

How to install rethink

install rethink
# install the arscontexta pack with the skills CLI
npx skills add agenticnotetaking/arscontexta

# or add only this skill to Claude Code: copy the folder

skill-sources/rethink/

# into

~/.claude/skills/rethink/ (all projects)

1## Runtime Configuration (Step 0 — before any processing)
2
3Read these files to configure domain-specific behavior:
4
51. **`ops/derivation-manifest.md`** — vocabulary mapping, domain context
6 - Use `vocabulary.notes` for the notes folder name
7 - Use `vocabulary.note` for the note type name in output
8 - Use `vocabulary.rethink` for the command name in output
9 - Use `vocabulary.topic_map` for MOC references
10 - Use `vocabulary.cmd_reflect` for connection-finding references
11
122. **`ops/config.yaml`** — thresholds, processing preferences
13 - `self_evolution.observation_threshold`: number of pending observations before suggesting rethink (default: 10)
14 - `self_evolution.tension_threshold`: number of pending tensions before suggesting rethink (default: 5)
15
163. **`ops/methodology/`** — existing methodology notes (read all to understand current system self-knowledge)
17
18If these files don't exist (pre-init invocation or standalone use), use universal defaults.
19
20The command name itself transforms per domain. The derivation manifest maps the universal name to domain-native language. If no manifest exists, use "rethink" as the command name.
21
22## EXECUTE NOW
23
24**Target: $ARGUMENTS**
25
26Parse immediately:
27- If target is empty: run full six-phase rethink (Phase 0 drift check + five evidence phases) on all pending observations and tensions
28- If target is "triage": run Phase 1 only (triage and methodology updates, no pattern detection)
