What is Clear Thinking & Decisions?
The Clear Thinking & Decisions skill provides a robust architecture for navigating complex information and overcoming cognitive biases. By leveraging Openclaw Skills, developers and users can integrate proven mental models—such as the System 1 and System 2 framework—directly into their AI agent workflows. This skill is designed to transform the way agents process conflicting data, ensuring that decisions are based on evidence rather than emotional manipulation or logical fallacies.
At its core, the skill acts as a cognitive filter, identifying common bugs in human reasoning like the sunk cost fallacy or confirmation bias. Whether you are building an agent to assist with financial analysis or career coaching, this addition to your library of Openclaw Skills ensures that the output is grounded in intellectual humility and statistical literacy.
Clear Thinking & Decisions Use Cases
- Evaluating the validity of health claims, financial opportunities, or news stories.
- Breaking through analysis paralysis when faced with complex, multi-variable decisions.
- Detecting and neutralizing real-time manipulation in marketing, sales, or political discourse.
- Applying the 70% rule to move from information gathering to decisive action.
- Managing post-decision anxiety and second-guessing through structured commitment protocols.
How Clear Thinking & Decisions Works
- The agent analyzes the user's input to determine if they are evaluating a claim or making a decision.
- For claims, it runs a 6-point source evaluation checklist to verify incentives and evidence.
- For decisions, it classifies the choice as Type 1 (Irreversible) or Type 2 (Reversible) to set the appropriate pace.
- It scans the provided data for the 6 most common logical fallacies and identifies statistical manipulation tricks.
- It applies a selected framework, such as the 10/10/10 Rule or Weighted Pros and Cons, to clarify values.
- The agent provides a final recommendation or commitment protocol to finalize the decision process.
Clear Thinking & Decisions Setup
To add this capability to your agent environment, install the package via the Openclaw Skills registry using the following command:
npx clawhub install howtousehumans/clear-thinking
This skill requires the filesystem tool to manage session state and decision logs.
