About
The Analogical Reasoning skill enables Claude to navigate 'first-time' situations by identifying deep structural similarities with past experiences. Rather than simple imitation, it performs a rigorous four-stage process—Retrieval, Mapping, Application, and Adaptation—to extract the logic of a successful source domain and translate it into an actionable plan for a new target. This is essential for founders and developers who need to port business models, technical architectures, or growth strategies into new markets while accounting for differing constraints and environmental factors.
