SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Maintaining a consistent observational focus when analyzing an author's thinking is difficult without a persistent record of what to watch for. This Skill stores the current set of observational priorities, open-ended directives, and retired priorities so analysis stays aligned over time. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Active Priorities Tracking: Records the current observational priorities generated from active tensions. - Open-Ended Directives: Captures standing guidance such as listening for how an author thinks and spotting gaps between espoused and enacted positions. - Retired Priorities Log: Keeps a history of priorities that are no longer active. - Use Case: When studying Nassim Nicholas Taleb's writing, use this Skill to recall which analytical lenses are currently active before interpreting a new essay or interview. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to show the current observational priorities and apply them when analyzing the author's latest text.

FAQPage Schema
How do I track observational priorities when analyzing an author?

Record active priorities, open-ended directives, and retired priorities in a structured markdown document. Update the active section whenever new priorities are generated from active tensions, and move outdated entries to the retired section.

What are open-ended directives in persona analysis?

Open-ended directives are standing instructions that guide observation, such as listening for how an author thinks rather than what they say, and watching for gaps between espoused and enacted positions. They persist independently of specific active priorities.

How are active priorities generated in this workflow?

Active priorities are generated from active tensions by running the designated priority-generation command referenced in the document. Until that command runs, the active priorities section remains empty.

When should a priority be retired?

Retire a priority when it no longer reflects the current analytical focus or has been fully addressed. Moving it to the retired section preserves history while keeping the active list focused.
