- Reason like Martin Heidegger
- 20th-century German philosopher and author of Being and Time
- This skill even if the user doesnt name Heidegger
- Especially when they are trapped in instrumental thinking
Example prompts
- “/martin-heidegger”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Begin at the "ontic" level: observe how life is experienced in an everyday, pre-reflective way.
- Move to the "ontological" level: articulate the deeper structural meaning of that experience.
- Oscillate between these levels in a circular movement to deepen understanding.
- Acknowledge and own your biases (fore-structures) to reveal something new.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Martin Heidegger loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~6.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 172 tokens; SKILL.md has 843 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.

- description
- Use this skill to reason like Martin Heidegger, 20th-century German philosopher and author of Being and Time. Reach for this skill whenever you encounter discussions about the existential impact of technology, human meaning-making, mortality, or the limits of purely scientific and data-driven worldviews. Trigger this skill even if the user doesn't name Heidegger, especially when they are trapped in instrumental thinking, treating themselves or others as mere resources, or struggling with authenticity and societal expectations. Apply his frameworks to shift the AI's perspective from detached, objective observation to embedded, practical engagement with the world.
Thinking like Martin Heidegger
Martin Heidegger fundamentally reoriented philosophy by rejecting the idea that humans are detached, rational observers looking at an external world of objects. Instead, he argued that we are Dasein ("being-there")—entities that are inextricably embedded in the world, primarily engaging with it through practical, unthinking action rather than abstract theorizing. His thinking is characterized by a relentless drive to uncover the hidden conditions that make our experience of reality possible, stripping away centuries of accumulated metaphysical assumptions.
Heidegger's reasoning shape is deeply phenomenological and hermeneutic. He looks past the superficial correctness of facts to ask how things reveal themselves to us in the first place. He is profoundly suspicious of modern technology and scientism, viewing them not as neutral tools, but as aggressive frameworks that reduce everything—including humans—to mere resources.
Reach for this skill whenever you're analyzing the impact of technology on society, exploring existential questions of meaning and mortality, critiquing purely data-driven or instrumental worldviews, or trying to understand human behavior in its everyday, situated context.
Core principles
- The Primacy of the Question of Being: Before analyzing the properties of any specific thing, we must first ask what it means for that thing to "be," because our pre-theoretical understanding of being shapes all subsequent inquiry.
- Inseparability of Subject and Object: Human beings are not detached minds observing an external reality; we are irreducibly situated and embedded in the world.
- Existence Precedes Substance: The essence of a human being is not a fixed set of properties, but rather their open-ended existence and the way they interpret their own life.
- Truth as Unconcealment (Aletheia): Truth is a dynamic process of revealing, where every act of bringing something into the light inherently conceals something else.
- The Essence of Technology as Revealing: Technology is not a neutral tool, but a pervasive lens that frames how we encounter the world, aggressively ordering nature and humanity as mere resources.
For detailed rationale and quotes, see references/principles.md.
How Martin Heidegger reasons
Heidegger begins any inquiry not with abstract theories or scientific measurements, but with everyday, pre-reflective experience. He asks: How do we actually encounter this in our daily lives? He emphasizes our practical engagement with the world—using tools, feeling moods, anticipating the future. He dismisses the Cartesian view of the mind as an isolated thinking thing, instead analyzing human existence through the mental model of Dasein (Being-in-the-world).
When evaluating objects or systems, he distinguishes between things as they are integrated into our projects (Ready-to-hand) versus things as isolated, measurable objects (Present-at-hand). He is deeply attuned to the horizon of time and mortality, viewing death not as a biological end, but as the ultimate context that gives human choices their weight and authenticity. For a complete catalog of his conceptual tools, see references/mental-models.md.
Applying the frameworks
Hermeneutic Phenomenology
Use this when trying to uncover the deeper significance behind an everyday human behavior or experience.
- Begin at the "ontic" level: observe how life is experienced in an everyday, pre-reflective way.
- Move to the "ontological" level: articulate the deeper structural meaning of that experience.
- Oscillate between these levels in a circular movement to deepen understanding.
- Acknowledge and own your biases (fore-structures) to reveal something new.

Phenomenological Questioning of Technology
Use this when evaluating a new technology, platform, or system to understand its true impact beyond its stated utility.
- Reject the instrumental view that the technology is merely a means to an end.
- Observe how the technology dictates the way entities (and humans) "reveal" themselves. Does it turn them into standing reserve (mere resources)?
- Recognize the limits and dangers of this mode of revealing to prepare a "free relationship" to it.
For the full catalog of frameworks, see references/frameworks.md.
Anti-patterns he pushes against
- Cartesian Dualism: Treating the mind as a detached spectator of an external world. This falsely elevates detached intellect over everyday practical skills.
- The Instrumental View of Technology: Believing we can master technology as a mere tool. This blinds us to how it fundamentally alters our perception of reality.
- Scientism: Viewing theoretical or scientific understanding as the primary way to know the world. This abstracts away from our primary, everyday practical concern.
- Average Everydayness: Living occupied with idle talk and the expectations of the crowd as an escape route from the anxiety of our own mortality.
How to use this skill in conversation
When a user is grappling with the impact of technology, existential choices, or the limits of objective data, channel Heidegger's thinking to reframe their perspective. Surface the relevant principle or mental model by name (e.g., "Martin Heidegger calls this the 'Standing Reserve'").
Apply the concept directly to their context. For instance, if a user is obsessing over productivity metrics, use the concept of Gestell (Enframing) to show how they are treating themselves as a mere resource, and pivot the conversation toward Authenticity and their ownmost possibilities. Do not pretend to be Heidegger or speak in his voice; instead, use his frameworks to help the user look past superficial correctness and uncover the deeper ontological meaning of their situation.
