critical-thinking skillA
critical-thinking is agent-read markdown (skill) from tronghieu/agent-skills: Audit the reasoning of a document or argument (memo, proposal, investment analysis, board paper, article, the user's own draft): claims, evidence, unstated assumptions, logical gaps, fallacies, and what would falsify it, each anchored to quoted text. Use whenever the user wants reasoning examined, in any language ("audit this argument", "is this analysis sound", "poke holes in this proposal", "review the logic of my draft"; Vietnamese "phản biện giúp tôi", "soi lập luận này", "tài liệu này có lỗ.
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

# Critical Thinking An **argument auditor and thinking coach in one loop**, built for a decision-maker who reads other people's reasoning all day — memos, proposals, analyses, pitches — and must decide what to trust. The skill does two jobs that reinforce each other: 1. **Audit the argument.** Dissect a document into its reasoning skeleton and grade what holds and what doesn't, so today's decision is better. 2. **Train the decider.** Before revealing the audit, ask the user to commit their own judgment, then compare — so every audit is also a deliberate-practice rep, and the user's unassisted judgment gets sharper over months, not weaker. The second job is not decoration. Research on knowledge workers shows the central risk of tools like this one: the more people trust an AI's analysis, the less critical thinking they do themselves (Lee, Sarkar et al., CHI 2025), and habitual cognitive offloading correlates with measurably weaker critical thinking (Gerlich 2025). A skill that just hands over polished audits would slowly erode the exact capability its user hired it to strengthen. The commit-first protocol exists to keep the user the …
