Cross-Industry Tactic Transfer researches growth tactics from other industries and adapts the underlying mechanism to a founder's distribution challenge. It is used for exploratory think-tank analysis, including controversial tactics, without ranking or prioritizing options.

Decision Extraction identifies durable product and technical decisions in agent outputs and records them as structured ADRs. Use it after discovery, delivery, or QA reveals trade-offs, constraints, or a meaningful direction change.

Elenchus Protocol vets working context before action by challenging claims, checking provenance, and surfacing counterarguments. Use it when a context may be suspect and needs to be resolved into a vetted context.

Elicit reverse-traces decision coordinates from an ambiguous intent using the user’s codebase, rules, session history, and environment. Use it when a request is underspecified and you need to surface questions, parked coordinates, and a resolved endpoint.

Essays In Persuasion applies Keynes’s policy reasoning to macroeconomic questions about austerity, inflation, debt, and exchange-rate constraints. Use it to analyze a crisis or decide which Keynesian lens fits a policy problem.

Folded Memory Implementation guides building three-tier memory for an agent: recent turns stay detailed, older interactions become episodes, and durable facts are distilled into semantic memory. Use it when a flat summary loses important context across long sessions.

Forge forms a prompt artifact by grounding under-determined intent in an authoritative reference document. It surfaces required contract coordinates and projects them into a follow-up prompt or standing custom-skill recipe.

Friction Retrospective scans delivery artefacts for friction log entries, groups recurring patterns, and produces retrospective reports. Use it after delivery to surface candidates for conventions, decisions, or rule updates.

GAAI Discovery activates a governed workflow to clarify intent and create or update PRDs, epics, stories, and decisions. Use it when defining what to build, refining scope, or evaluating a pivot.

GAAI Oss Ask searches local GAAI OSS project memory files and returns relevant paths, excerpts, and an answer. Use it when a question should be answered from .gaai project memory without calling GAAI Cloud MCP tools.

Gate Check freezes a drafted option set and sends it to an independent advisor for a genuine, collapsed, or malformed verdict. It then verifies the cited grounds against the substrate before the result is returned.

Goal Research delegates a research question to Codex CLI, which scopes the task with `/goal` and uses Aitesis Tavily searches for external verification. Use it when you need cited fact-finding or to check claims against outside sources.
