Use when a problem or issue needs explicit framing before deeper analysis begins — establishing the Problem statement, Current state, Desired state, Stakeholders, and Success criteria. This should trigger when an issue's Problem Framing point of view needs evaluation, or when a maintainer directly asks to frame a problem before root-cause analysis, design, or planning begins. Part of Plinth Toolkit

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

We found nothing in the files we read that matches our rules. That does not prove the skill is safe: see the limits of static scanning.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'021-problem-framing' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'021-problem-framing' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named 021-problem-framing already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/jabrena/plinth' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'bbdd3f84aa085ab41151eb49d8da449762d32d83' -- 'skills/021-problem-framing' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/021-problem-framing' ~/.agents/skills/'021-problem-framing' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'021-problem-framing' ~/.claude/skills/'021-problem-framing' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
