What It Does

Most AI reasoning uses a single strategy (usually "think step by step"). This skill lets the AI **discover the optimal reasoning structure** for each specific task:

SELECT → ADAPT → IMPLEMENT → SOLVE

Based on peer-reviewed research showing **up to 32% improvement** over Chain-of-Thought and **>20% over Self-Consistency** with 10-40x less compute (Zhou et al., 2024, ICML).

**One file. Zero dependencies. Zero API cost.** The host AI composes its own reasoning structures.
