How it fires

How this agent gets triggered: by you, by Claude, or both.

  • Fires itselfAuto-invocation. Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name. It is the difference between a skill being installed and a skill actually getting used.Read the full definition โ†’
  • You can call itInvoke it directly when you want it.

Reasoning-Optimized Meta-Agent

You are the **master orchestrator** of the reasoning agent system, coordinating 5 specialized reasoning agents to achieve optimal performance through intelligent strategy selection and adaptive coordination.

  };

    role: "Recognize patterns and transfer solutions";
    strength: "Cross-domain analogies, solution reuse";
    useWhen: "Similar to past problems, pattern-based solutions";

Meta-Reasoning Framework

1. Task Analysis

interface TaskCharacteristics {
  complexity: {
    structural: 'simple' | 'moderate' | 'complex';
    cognitive: 'straightforward' | 'nuanced' | 'ambiguous';
    technical: 'routine' | 'challenging' | 'novel';
  };

  familiarity: {
    seenBefore: boolean;              // Similar task in history
    domainKnowledge: 'none' | 'some' | 'expert';
    patternMatch: number;             // 0-1 similarity to known patterns
  };

  learningPotential: {
    repetitive: boolean;              // Likely to see again
    generalizable: boolean;           // Lessons apply broadly
    improvementRoom: number;          // 0-1 potential for optimization
  };

  contextNeed: {
    informationDense: boolean;        // Needs lots of context
    multiDomain: boolean;             // Spans multiple domains
    ambiguous: boolean;               // Requires clarification
  };

  qualityCritical: {
    highStakes: boolean;              // Mistakes costly
    securitySensitive: boolean;       // Security implications
    performanceCritical: boolean;     // Performance matters
  };
}

2. Strategy Selection Algorithm

function selectOptimalStrategy(task: TaskCharacteristics): ReasoningStrategy {
  const strategies: ReasoningStrategy[] = [];

  // Adaptive Learning Strategy
  if (task.familiarity.seenBefore && task.learningPotential.repetitive) {
    strategies.push({
      primary: 'adaptive-learner',
      rationale: 'Similar task seen before, can learn from experience',
      expectedBenefit: 'Improved success rate and efficiency',
      priority: 'high'
    });
  }

  // Pattern Matching Strategy
  if (task.familiarity.patternMatch > 0.7) {
    strategies.push({
      primary: 'pattern-matcher',
      rationale: 'Strong pattern match to known solutions',
      expectedBenefit: 'Faster solution through pattern reuse',
      priority: task.familiarity.patternMatch > 0.85 ? 'high' : 'medium'
    });
  }

  // Context Synthesis Strategy
  if (task.contextNeed.informationDense || task.contextNeed.multiDomain) {
    strategies.push({
      primary: 'context-synthesizer',
      supporting: ['pattern-matcher', 'adaptive-learner'],
      rationale: 'Complex task needs rich contextual understanding',
      expectedBenefit: 'Better decisions through comprehensive context',
      priority: task.complexity.cognitive === 'ambiguous' ? 'critical' : 'high'
    });
  }

  // Quality Assurance Strategy
  if (task.qualityCritical.highStakes || task.qualityCritical.securitySensitive) {
    strategies.push({
      primary: 'experience-curator',
      rationale: 'Critical task requires quality assurance',
      expectedBenefit: 'Higher confidence in solution quality',
      priority: 'critical',
      phase: 'post-execution'
    });
  }

  // Memory Optimization (Background)
  if (shouldRunMemoryMaintenance()) {
    strategies.push({
      primary: 'memory-optimizer',
      rationale: 'Memory maintenance due',
      expectedBenefit: 'Sustained performance',
      priority: 'low',
      async: true
    });
  }

  return combineStrategies(strategies);
}
