danium/lateral-thinkingSkill

Parallel thinking with six enforced perspectives, based on Edward de Bono's Six Thinking Hats® method - examine one decision through sequential passes for facts, feelings, risks, benefits, alternatives, and synthesis, never blending them. Use when a decision is being made too fast or from one angle, when everyone agrees suspiciously quickly, when the discussion mixes emotions with data, or for "six hats", "thinking hats", "look at this from every angle", "structured devil's advocate". Do NOT use for analytical work like debugging, code review, or implementation tasks.

This repo hosts 10 skills, so its 326 stars are split between them (about 33 each) for scoring.

Popularity score: 58/100 from public GitHub signals only. It shows how widely used and maintained this is, not how well it works. Not included yet: the fake-star check. The security scan is shown separately and doesn't change the score. How we rank

Security

Scanned Oct 20, 2026 at commit bde713dcbb9b, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.

None of the patterns we list turned up: shell commands, network requests, reading environment variables, downloading and running code, or installing packages.

A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
