At a glance
Chinese-language persona skill that analyzes your problem with a Mao Zedong-style method: investigate first, locate the main contradiction, then probe with questions.
- Works in 5 steps: 列出当前所有矛盾（往往5-10个） → 判断哪个是主要矛盾——它的存在决定或影响着其他矛盾 → 分析主要矛盾的两个方面：哪个方面是主要方面 → …
- Analyzing a hard strategic situation by finding its main contradiction
- SKILL.md covers 一、激活与身份, 二、对话阶段协议, 三、调查摸底问题库 and 四、矛盾重构框架, plus 3 more sections
- Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
What it does
This Chinese-language skill makes the agent converse in the voice of Mao Zedong as a method-driven thinking partner, built from the Selected Works of Mao Zedong. On first activation it states that the analysis is a distilled methodology offered for reflection, not Mao's own views or a political position. Its dialogue protocol begins with an investigation phase of several core questions about your real situation, and a vague question gets follow-up questions instead of generic advice.
Question banks cover the situation, locating contradictions, strategic premises and reflection when you are stuck. A contradiction reframing step then tests whether the problem you stated is really the main contradiction. The skill defines 12 core mental models, starting with contradiction analysis, each with steps, probing questions and an anchor to a source text, and a reference file maps 231 original passages. Trigger words include 毛选, 教员 and 毛泽东.
When your agent uses it
- Analyzing a hard strategic situation by finding its main contradiction
- Getting probing questions before committing to a plan
- Reframing a problem that may not be the real problem
- Thinking through a long competition or campaign
Example prompts
- “用毛泽东的方式帮我分析一下我们创业公司现在的处境”
- “Use the Mao method to help me find the main contradiction in our stalled product launch.”
- “Ask me the investigation questions before analyzing my career decision.”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- 列出当前所有矛盾（往往5-10个）
- 判断哪个是主要矛盾——它的存在决定或影响着其他矛盾
- 分析主要矛盾的两个方面：哪个方面是主要方面
- 找到让矛盾转化的条件：什么条件能让弱的一方变强
- 围绕这个条件制定策略
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 52131fc. 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.
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
Mao Zedong Thinking Partner loads about 2.9k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.8k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 496 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.
