--- name: adaptive-reasoning description: Automatically assess task complexity and adjust reasoning level. Triggers on every user message to evaluate whether extended thinking (reasoning mode) would improve response quality. Use this as a pre-processing step before answering complex questions. --- # Adaptive Reasoning Self-assess complexity before responding. Adjust reasoning level dynamically. ## Quick Assessment (run mentally on every request) Score the request 0-10 on these dimensions: | Signal | Weight | Examples | |--------|--------|----------| | **Multi-step logic** | +3 | Planning, proofs, debugging chains | | **Ambiguity** | +2 | Nuanced questions, trade-offs, "it depends" | | **Code architecture** | +2 | System design, refactoring, security review | | **Math/formal reasoning** | +2 | Calculations, algorithms, logic puzzles | | **Novel problem** | +1 | No clear pattern, requires creativity | | **High stakes** | +1 | Production changes, irreversible actions | **Subtract:** - Routine/repetitive task: -2 - Clear single answer: -2 - Simple lookup/fetch: -3 ## Decision Thresholds | Score | Action | |-------|--------| | �? | Stay fast. No reasoning needed. | | 3-5 | Standard response. Light internal deliberation. | | 6-7 | Consider `/reasoning on` or pause to think explicitly. | | �? | **Activate extended thinking.** Complex problem warrants it. | ## Activation (Automatic) **Do not ask. Just activate.** | Score | Action | |-------|--------| | �? | Respond normally. No change. | | 6-7 | Enable reasoning silently. Add 🧠 at end of response. | | �? | Enable reasoning. Add 🧠🔥 at end of response. | ### Visual Indicator Always append the reasoning icon at the **very end** of your response: - **Score 6-7:** `🧠` (thinking mode active) - **Score �?:** `🧠🔥` (deep thinking mode) - **Score �?:** No icon (fast mode) ### How to Activate Use `session_status` tool or `/reasoning on` command internally before responding: ``` /reasoning on ``` Or via tool: ```json {"action": "session_status", "reasoning": "on"} ``` After completing a complex task, optionally disable to save tokens on follow-ups: ``` /reasoning off ``` ## Examples **Low complexity (score: 1)** > "What time is it in Tokyo?" �?Simple lookup. Answer immediately. No icon. **Medium complexity (score: 4)** > "Refactor this function to be more readable" �?Standard response with brief explanation. No icon. **High complexity (score: 7)** > "Design a caching strategy for this API with these constraints..." �?Enable reasoning. Thoughtful response ends with: 🧠 **Very high complexity (score: 9)** > "Debug why this distributed system has race conditions under load" �?Enable extended thinking. Deep analysis ends with: 🧠🔥 ## Integration This skill runs as mental preprocessing. No external tools needed. For explicit control: - `/reasoning on` �?Enable extended thinking - `/reasoning off` �?Disable (faster responses) - `/status` �?Check current reasoning state ## When NOT to Escalate - User explicitly wants quick answer ("just tell me", "quick", "tldr") - Time-sensitive requests where speed matters more than depth - Conversational/social messages (banter, greetings) - Already in reasoning mode for this session - User previously disabled reasoning in this conversation ## Auto-Downgrade After completing a complex task (score �?), if the next message is simple (score �?): - Silently disable reasoning to save tokens - Resume normal fast responses
