hypothesis-engine
hypothesis-engine is a Structured reasoning & decision frameworks skill for AI agents, published by itsmeadarsh2008 in the backlit-kbd repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates hypothesis-engine D (59/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.
A structured reasoning skill that generates competing hypotheses, designs falsification tests, eliminates candidates with evidence, and — for high-stakes architectural decisions — runs a multi-perspective debate where each perspective actively tries to break the proposal. ALWAYS activate for: any bug where the root cause is not immediately obvious, any architectural decision that is difficult to reverse, any situation where the first explanation feels too convenient, or when asked "why is this happening" or "which approach should we take". This skill is the antidote to the Einstellung Effect — it prevents the most familiar solution from blocking the best one. It makes Mirage reason like a scientist and decide like a senior engineering committee.
