What the skill teaches

A skill from the Hermes core skills collection, adapted from the think tool idea in Claude Code, that makes an agent pause and reason before complex or irreversible actions. It applies when several approaches are possible, before destructive commands such as deleting files or resetting Git history, during error recovery and when requirements are unclear, but not for simple operations. The agent states the situation in one sentence, lists the options, weighs pros, cons, effort and fit with the project for each, then records a decision and reason in a fixed format. Its metadata lists Cursor, Codex and Claude Code.

Capabilities
