cognitive-scaffolding

What problem does it solve?

Cognitive Scaffolding prevents performance drop-offs caused by long prompts where the most important instructions or evidence get ignored or missed.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Zone-based context placement: Organizes information into anchor (rules), structured middle (chunked data), background (reference material), and foreground (current task) to match attention patterns.
• Chunking with delimiters: Uses clearly delimited sections to reduce “lost in the middle” behavior and improve retrieval across multiple documents or data blocks.
• Attention-aware assembly: Builds prompts that emphasize immutable constraints and the latest user intent while still preserving useful fallbacks.

Quick Start

Use cognitive-scaffolding to restructure your agent prompt so that immutable rules appear at the start, the current task appears at the end, and large reference data is chunked into delimited middle sections.
