epistemology-limits

What problem does it solve?

It helps you stop wasting effort on questions that cannot be settled and instead reframe them into precise, decision-relevant versions you can actually answer.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Limit type classification: Distinguishes fundamental, practical, and conceptual limits (including underdetermination, observer effects, destroyed evidence, and category errors).
• What remains knowable: Identifies bounds, proxies, and related sub-questions that can still be established under the limit.
• Actionable reframing: Produces a clear reframed question (e.g., ranges, worst-cases, correlations, or confidence levels) so you can proceed responsibly despite uncertainty.
• Use cases: Best for open scientific/analytic questions, investigations that have stalled, and situations where you’re asking “can this even be known?” rather than “what should we do next?”

Quick Start

Use the epistemology-limits skill to diagnose whether your question is fundamentally, practically, or conceptually unknowable and to produce a reframed, answerable version of it.
