IterativeDepth

Invoke iterative depth on the problem statement and it runs 2-8 structured lens passes, each examining the same problem from a different angle such as stakeholder needs or failure modes. The findings are synthesized into deduplicated ISC criteria.

It uses eight lenses: Literal, Stakeholder, Failure, Temporal, Experiential, Constraint Inversion, Analogical, and Meta. Each is grounded in established techniques like Six Thinking Hats, Misuse Cases, and Viewpoint-Oriented Requirements Engineering.

Depth is set by SLA or explicit request: Fast runs 2 lenses, Standard runs 4, and Deep runs all 8. You can also specify an exact number between 2 and 8, and lenses are selected in order of general applicability.

Yes. Standard mode runs the first two lenses inline and spawns background agents for the rest, while Deep mode spawns paired or individual agents per lens. Each agent receives the problem, its lens definition, and criteria found so far.

Skip it for Instant SLA tasks where speed matters more than completeness, since the workflow returns immediately. It is designed for problems where hidden requirements carry real cost, not trivial or fully specified requests.
