Apply Bourdieu's field theory to analyze power relations through the interplay of field, capital, and habitus. Use this skill when the user needs to map positions and position-takings within a social field, analyze how different forms of capital (economic, cultural, social, symbolic) structure competition, explain why actors behave as they do within institutional settings, or when they ask 'why do people in this industry act this way', 'who has power and why', or 'how does this field reproduce inequality'.
Apply Cialdini's six principles of persuasion — Reciprocity, Commitment/Consistency, Social Proof, Liking, Authority, and Scarcity — to analyze or design influence strategies. Use this skill when the user needs to make messaging more persuasive, analyze why a campaign works or doesn't, design sales or marketing copy, or understand social influence tactics — even if they say 'how do we convince people', 'why is this ad effective', or 'make this more persuasive'.
Apply the Bass Diffusion Model (1969) to forecast innovation adoption using innovation and imitation coefficients. Use this skill when the user needs to forecast new product adoption curves, estimate market penetration timing, calibrate launch strategy based on diffusion dynamics, or when they ask 'how fast will this spread', 'when does adoption take off', or 'what is the expected S-curve'.
Apply meta-analysis to synthesize effect sizes across multiple studies, assess heterogeneity, and evaluate publication bias. Use this skill when the user needs to combine findings from prior research, compare fixed-effect vs random-effects models, compute pooled effect sizes, or when they ask 'what does the overall evidence say', 'how do I combine results across studies', or 'is there publication bias'.
Apply systems thinking — causal loop diagrams, stock-and-flow models, system archetypes, and leverage-point analysis — to organizational, economic, or social problems where feedback loops, delays, or emergent behavior drive recurring failure across multiple interacting actors. Use this skill when the user describes a multi-actor situation that resists linear fixes: policy interventions that backfire, org-level fixes that break other teams, market symptoms that return after being solved, or time-lagged second-order consequences, even if they say 'why does fixing X make Y worse' or 'identify the leverage points in this system'. Do NOT use for single-cause software bugs, flaky tests, or regressions — those are debugging problems, not systems-thinking problems, even when phrased as 'this keeps coming back'.
Apply signaling theory (Spence, 1973) to analyze how agents communicate private information through costly, credible signals under information asymmetry. Use this skill when the user needs to evaluate whether a corporate action serves as a credible signal, analyze dividend or IPO signaling, assess separating vs pooling equilibria, or when they ask 'why do firms pay dividends', 'is this signal credible', or 'how does underpricing signal quality'.
Apply the Theory of Planned Behavior to predict behavioral intentions from attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control, and identify intervention leverage points. Use this skill when the user needs to predict adoption of a new behavior, diagnose why an intended behavior does not occur, design behavior change campaigns, or when they ask 'why do people not follow through', 'what predicts behavior change', or 'how to increase adoption rates'.
Navigate Taiwan healthcare regulations including NHI system, medical device classification, drug registration, telemedicine rules, and health data protection. Use this skill when the user is building a health tech product for Taiwan, needs to understand NHI, evaluate medical device regulatory pathways, or assess telemedicine compliance — even if they say 'sell a medical device in Taiwan', 'how does NHI work', 'telemedicine regulations', or 'health data privacy in Taiwan'.
Apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) to estimate expected returns and assess risk-return tradeoffs. Use this skill when the user needs to calculate expected return on an asset, interpret beta as systematic risk exposure, evaluate whether an investment compensates for risk, or when they ask 'what return should I expect', 'what is the risk premium', or 'how does beta affect pricing'.
Apply sustainability frameworks (triple bottom line, SDGs, ESG, circular economy) to evaluate whether strategies balance economic, social, and environmental dimensions. Use this skill when the user needs to assess ESG performance, design circular economy strategies, align business models with SDGs, or when they ask 'is this strategy truly sustainable', 'how do we measure ESG impact', 'what does a circular business model look like', or 'how do we avoid greenwashing'.
Analyze unit economics to evaluate per-unit profitability and business model scalability. Use this skill when the user needs to assess whether each transaction, customer, or product unit is profitable, evaluate startup viability, or optimize contribution margins — even if they say 'does our business model work', 'what's our margin per order', or 'can we scale profitably'.
Apply Social Identity Theory to analyze how group categorization, identification, and intergroup comparison drive behavior, bias, and conflict. Use this skill when the user needs to explain in-group favoritism or out-group hostility, diagnose organizational silo dynamics, design inclusive team structures, or when they ask 'why do groups polarize', 'how does team identity affect collaboration', or 'what drives us-vs-them thinking'.
