Does this skill work with the SPEC workflow?

Yes, it integrates directly with the MoAI SPEC workflow, particularly during the planning and specification phases to document assumptions and alternatives.

How does it help with trade-off analysis?

It provides a weighted scoring method to compare alternatives based on performance, maintainability, cost, risk, and scalability, making implicit trade-offs explicit.

When should I activate the Philosopher framework?

You should use it for architecture decisions affecting multiple files, technology selections, or any technical change with significant long-term impact.

What is the MoAI Foundation Philosopher skill?

It is a strategic thinking framework for Claude Code that provides structured methodologies like First Principles and Design Thinking to help developers solve complex problems.

What methodologies are included in this skill?

It integrates Stanford Design Thinking for creative solution generation, MIT Systems Engineering for risk assessment, and First Principles Analysis for root-cause decomposition.

生産性とワークフロー

Integrates First Principles, Design Thinking, and Systems Engineering to enhance architectural decision-making and strategic problem-solving.

概要

The MoAI Foundation Philosopher is a specialized strategic thinking framework for Claude Code that prevents rushed technical decisions and shallow problem-solving. By employing a structured five-phase process—including assumption auditing, first principles decomposition, and cognitive bias checks—it helps developers navigate complex architectural choices, technology selections, and high-impact refactoring. This skill ensures that every major coding decision is backed by explicit trade-off analysis and root-cause verification, drawing on methodologies from Stanford and MIT to improve long-term system maintainability and project success.
