Cognitive moves for collapsing complexity — reframe, clarify, reduce, decompose, invert, constrain, transfer, generalize, audit — distilled from the working method of mathematicians, physicists, and software engineers known for turning hard problems into simple solutions (Pólya, Feynman, Hamming, Brooks, Knuth, Dijkstra, Lamport, Tao, Grothendieck, Munger, Hofstadter). Use when stuck on a complex problem, when a proposed design feels overengineered, when reviewing code that has accreted acciden…

Install

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

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'radical-simplification' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'radical-simplification' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named radical-simplification already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/pproenca/dot-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'cf93c57cac89d6fc3e4194686000411567f5caf3' -- '.agents/skills/radical-simplification' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'.agents/skills/radical-simplification' ~/.agents/skills/'radical-simplification' && 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/'radical-simplification' ~/.claude/skills/'radical-simplification' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
