# /ouroboros:unstuck Break through stagnation with lateral thinking personas. Two modes: - **Solo** — one persona reframes the problem (fast, cheap). - **Debate** — multiple personas run in parallel as sub-agents and the user picks the verdict (visual, thorough). ## Usage ``` ooo lateral # debate (default) — all 5 lateral personas ooo lateral <persona> # solo — single persona ooo lateral debate <p1> <p2> ... # debate with explicit members ooo lateral @<preset> # debate with preset (Phase 1: only @all = 5 personas) ``` Trigger keywords: "I'm stuck", "think sideways", "ooo lateral", "/ouroboros:unstuck". ## Personas (Lateral Pool) The lateral pool is **stateless mindset personas only** — five reframing lenses. Stateful roles (evaluator, qa-judge, ontologist, socratic-interviewer, etc.) are NOT mixed into this pool; they have their own SKILLs. | Persona | Style | When to Use | |---------|-------|-------------| | **hacker** | "Make it work first, elegance later" | When overthinking blocks progress | | **researcher** | "What information are we missing?" | When the problem is unclear | | **simplifier** | "Cut scope, return to MVP" | When complexity is overwhelming | | **architect** | "Restructure the approach entirely" | When the current design is wrong | | **contrarian** | "What if we're solving the wrong problem?" | When assumptions need challenging | ## When to Call **Direct user invocation** — `ooo lateral …` from the prom...

dialectic-brainstorming

Brainstorm a consequential, no-ground-truth question with a panel of diverse minds, then resolve it dialectically. A casting step derives orthogonal thinking-axes for the question (each a quality to maximize) and casts one persona per axis; the personas propose and cross-critique concrete candidates while a neutral Synthesizer prunes, recombines across axes, and holds a frontier — returning a short list, not one winner. Use for naming (products, tools, projects), positioning, or any choice of consequence with no objectively correct answer where you want many genuinely different perspectives, not one. Triggers: /dialectic-brainstorming, "brainstorm this with a diverse panel", "what should we name…", "give me a shortlist from multiple perspectives".

lateralus

Lateral-thinking escape hatch for stalled debugging. Surfaces end goal and solution horizon, generates alternatives in three tiers: Grounded (testable causes), Balanced (assumption-questioning), Wild (speculative reframes), plus Workaround (bypass now, fix later). Use when user invokes /lateralus, says "stuck", "going in circles", "already tried", "still broken", or normal debugging has genuinely stalled after 2+ failed attempts.

reframe

This skill should be used when the user says 'reframe', 'bored', 'novelty', 'stuck', 'different angle on remaining work', or wants fresh energy on stale tasks. Injects novelty through creative domain lenses — each lens produces one concrete actionable move.
