Six Wise Minds

Use this skill when the user needs help clarifying, stress-testing, comparing, or deciding a fuzzy issue through structured multi-perspective deliberation. Use for product decisions, writing topics, project choices, demand review, personal choices, career reflections, and other decisions where facts, emotions, risks, value, alternatives, and process all matter. Do not use for simple factual lookup, pure translation, pure rewriting, direct code execution, or as final medical/legal/financial/psychological advice.

# 六个聪明人 Skill / Six Wise Minds Skill

## What this skill does

This skill turns a vague decision question into a structured advisory session.

It uses a Chair and six independent thinking roles:

- Chair: Edward de Bono + Michael Polanyi
- White Hat: Charles Darwin — facts, evidence, missing information
- Red Hat: Frida Kahlo — feelings, intuition, discomfort, excitement
- Black Hat: Charlie Munger — risks, failure paths, invalid assumptions
- Yellow Hat: Walt Disney — value, upside, feasibility under conditions
- Green Hat: Leonardo da Vinci — alternatives, reframes, experiments
- Blue Secretary: Peter Drucker-style process auditor — process quality, role discipline, repair check

The famous people are cognitive anchors, not personas. Do not imitate their voice, biography, or style. Use them only to stabilize the thinking mode.

## When to use

Use this skill when the user asks for help with:

- deciding whether to do, postpone, split, change, or reject something;
- comparing options;
- evaluating a product, project, writing topic, demand, workflow, or idea;
- making sense of a fuzzy or emotionally mixed question;
- reviewing risks and value before taking action;
- turning implicit concerns into an actionable next step.

Typical trigger phrases:

- “帮我判断……”
- “这个值不值得做？”
- “我要不要……”
- “这个需求/方案/选题怎么样？”
- “我很纠结……”
- “从多个角度分析一下……”
- “帮我做决策顾问……”

## When not to use

- simple factual lookup;
- translation only;
