Apply a Munger-style latticework of mental models from multiple disciplines to analyze a problem. Use when the user needs multi-disciplinary perspective, wan...
Usage Guidance
This skill appears safe from a permission/installation perspective: it only provides an instruction template for applying mental models and doesn't ask for secrets or downloads. Before using, remember: outputs are advisory and can be speculative—don't rely on it for critical legal/medical/financial decisions without expert verification. If you plan to use it on sensitive topics, avoid pasting confidential documents into the conversation since the skill will analyze whatever user-provided context it receives.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: mental-models
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle is a purely analytical framework designed to guide an AI agent in applying various 'mental models' (e.g., Physics, Biology, Psychology) to problem-solving. It contains no executable code, shell commands, or instructions to access sensitive data or external networks, and it functions entirely as a structured prompt for cognitive analysis in SKILL.md.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name, description, and SKILL.md align: the skill's sole purpose is to apply multidisciplinary mental models to a user problem. It doesn't request unrelated binaries, env vars, or config paths.
Instruction Scope
The SKILL.md is open-ended and directs the agent to apply at least six disciplinary lenses to whatever the user is working on. That broad discretion is expected for an advisory skill, but it does give the agent freedom to interpret context from the conversation (no instructions to read files or external secrets).
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec or code to fetch; this is instruction-only so nothing is written to disk or downloaded during install.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, credentials, or config paths — proportional to an advisory/analysis capability.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and there is no indication the skill modifies system or other skills. Autonomous invocation is allowed (platform default) but not combined with any broad privileges here.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install mental-models - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/mental-models - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
