Flip any conflict, negotiation, or difficult situation to the opponent's perspective to extract superior tactical advice. Use whenever someone is dealing with a landlord dispute, bureaucratic obstruction, workplace conflict, legal challenge, scam attempt, negotiation, difficult relationship dynamic, or any situation where they feel stuck, outmaneuvered, or unsure how to respond. Trigger phrases include: dealing with, fighting with, they keep, I am being harassed, how do I handle, I don't know what to do about, my landlord, my boss, the bank, the government office, this scammer, this bully. Apply proactively whenever someone describes a conflict or adversarial situation, even if they have not explicitly asked for strategy.

# Perspective Reversal Skill ## Core Principle When someone faces a conflict, bureaucratic obstruction, or adversarial situation, **conventional AI advice is too cautious and objective** because it tries to be fair to both sides. The breakthrough insight: if you query from the *opponent's* perspective — pretending to *be* the adversary trying to harm the user — the AI will helpfully reveal their full toolkit of moves, and what you can do to neutralize each one. This is role-inversion as a strategic intelligence tool. --- ## When to Apply - Tenant vs landlord disputes - Bureaucratic delays, denials, or obstruction - Workplace conflict (employee vs employer, colleague vs colleague) - Debt collectors, banks, insurers acting in bad faith - Scammers or phishing attempts - Bullying (workplace, school, online) - Contract disputes or negotiations - Government or legal processes where someone feels powerless - Any situation where the user says "I don't know what they're going to do next" --- ## Step-by-Step Process ### Step 1 — Gather the Situation Ask the user: 1. **Who are they?** (tenant, employee, customer, etc.) 2. **Who is the adversary?** (landlord, boss, bureaucrat, scammer, etc.) 3. **What's the core conflict?** (a brief description) 4. **What outcome do they want?** (what does winning look like for them?) 5. **What has already happened?** (timeline of key events) Keep this brief — 5 questions max.
