macrothink

1Step back from the session's chosen path and ask several fresh reads what the current direction might be missing.

3## Goal
4 
5Check the live decision or direction when examples, wording, prior turns, or a first plausible answer may have shaped the session's framing. The direction itself is the subject, not the artifact describing it.
6 
7Return a spread of independent reads. Divergence is the signal; convergence offers reassurance but never proves correctness.

9The pass has two paths. The direction audit is the default. The macro path runs only when the user asks to re-read one decision at a larger scale (its boundary, purpose, stakeholders or horizon), and it performs no fan-out.

11## Workflow
12 
13Only explicit user invocation authorizes the bounded fresh sub-sessions below. Their reads inform this pass and give them no authority to change the plan.
14 
151. Name the current direction: the decision the session is about to keep building on.
162. Restate the underlying problem using its goal, constraints, and known facts. Remove the session's examples, suggested answer, preferred naming, and framing-specific wording.
173. Fan out independent fresh reads of that restatement: **2 to 5, default 3**. Same model is allowed because this pass does not claim cross-model verification.
184. Collect each read verbatim, without correcting it toward the session's current direction.
195. Classify each read against the current direction:
