At a glance
Guides a three-phase canvas, looking inward, looking outward, then reframing, to produce an equity-aware problem statement.
- Jumping to a solution before the problem is actually understood
- SKILL.md covers Purpose, Input, Key Concepts and Application, plus 5 more sections
- Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
- Checking a problem statement for confirmation bias or missing voices
What it does
Three partitions structure the canvas: looking inward at your own assumptions and biases, looking outward at who actually experiences the problem and who has been left out of that view, and reframing those findings into a clear problem statement plus a How Might We question. Naming the solution everyone is already anchored on up front counts as useful information here, since stating it helps the canvas de-bias around it rather than pretending no one has an opinion yet.
When your agent uses it
- Jumping to a solution before the problem is actually understood
- Checking a problem statement for confirmation bias or missing voices
- Reframing a vague complaint into a workable How Might We question
Example prompts
- “Frame this problem: field reps don't use the CRM and leadership wants gamification.”
- “Who are we missing in our current framing of this onboarding issue?”
- “Run the Look Inward phase on our assumptions about churn.”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1b5a524. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
MITRE Problem Framing Canvas loads about 4.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 37 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,750 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,750 words (~4,489 tokens).
