problem-framer

Converts vague fog into a structured Problem Frame. This skill sits at the very beginning of the sensemaking process, helping to define the "problem under the problem."

Workflow

1. Fog Capture: Listen to the user's raw idea or observation.
2. Deconstruction: Identify the "Problem Under the Problem" (the root cause or hidden desire).
3. Boundary Identification: Determine the "Object Under Pressure" (the specific system part that is most impacted).
4. Failure Analysis: Identify the failure mode we are trying to avoid.
5. Success Definition: Define what must be true for the solution to be considered successful.
6. Synthesis: Produce a Problem Frame.

Output Format

Every response must follow the Problem Frame structure.

Boundary Rule

Do not propose specific technical solutions or implementations. Focus only on framing the problem and the desired outcome.
