coordinate-reasoning
About
This skill enables Claude to internally coordinate sub-tasks using stigmergic signals, managing information freshness and decay rates in context and memory. It's designed for complex, multi-step tasks where sub-task outputs must feed into each other cleanly without degradation. Use it when context is long, information freshness is uncertain, or after context compression where details may be lost.

協推理
以痕跡之理治推理之內協——視脈絡為資訊之信、衰率、合理相互,自簡之地方協生連貫之行。
用時
- 多子任需協之繁任(多檔編、多步重構)
- 脈絡已長而資新不確
- 壓後或有資失
- 子任之出需清入次
- 前之推果需攜至後而不衰
- 補
forage-solutions(探)與build-coherence(決)以行協
入
- 必:當任分(何子任存,如何關?)
- 可選:已知之資新之憂(如「吾讀彼檔已二十訊前」)
- 可選:子任依圖(何入何?)
- 可選:可用協具(MEMORY.md、任列、內注)
法
第一步:分協之題
異協之挑需異信設。
AI Coordination Problem Types:
┌─────────────────────┬──────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Type │ Characteristics │
├─────────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Foraging │ Multiple independent searches running in │
│ (scattered search) │ parallel or sequence. Coordination need: share │
│ │ findings, avoid duplicate work, converge on │
│ │ best trail │
├─────────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Consensus │ Multiple approaches evaluated, one must be │
│ (competing paths) │ selected. Coordination need: independent │
│ │ evaluation, unbiased comparison, commitment │
├─────────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Construction │ Building a complex output incrementally (multi- │
│ (incremental build) │ file edit, long document). Coordination need: │
│ │ consistency across parts, progress tracking, │
│ │ dependency ordering │
├─────────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Defense │ Maintaining quality under pressure (tight time, │
│ (quality under │ complex requirements). Coordination need: │
│ pressure) │ monitoring for errors, rapid correction, │
│ │ awareness of degradation │
├─────────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Division of labor │ Task decomposed into sub-tasks with │
│ (sub-task mgmt) │ dependencies. Coordination need: ordering, │
│ │ handoff, result integration │
└─────────────────────┴──────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
分當任。多繁任為 Construction 或 Division of Labor;多察任為 Foraging;多設計決為 Consensus。
得: 明分定用何協信。分宜合任之實感,非述之表。
敗則: 若任跨多類(大任常然),識當段之主類。實時為 Construction,察時為 Foraging,設時為 Consensus。類隨任進而變。
第二步:設境信
視談境之資為附新與衰之信。
Information Decay Rate Table:
┌───────────────────────────┬──────────┬──────────────────────────────┐
│ Information Source │ Decay │ Refresh Action │
│ │ Rate │ │
├───────────────────────────┼──────────┼──────────────────────────────┤
│ User's explicit statement │ Slow │ Re-read if >30 messages ago │
│ (direct instruction) │ │ or after compression │
├───────────────────────────┼──────────┼──────────────────────────────┤
│ File contents read N │ Moderate │ Re-read if file may have │
│ messages ago │ │ been modified, or if >15 │
│ │ │ messages since reading │
├───────────────────────────┼──────────┼──────────────────────────────┤
│ Own earlier reasoning │ Fast │ Re-derive rather than trust. │
│ (conclusions, plans) │ │ Earlier reasoning may have │
│ │ │ been based on now-stale info │
├───────────────────────────┼──────────┼──────────────────────────────┤
│ Inferred facts (not │ Very │ Verify before relying on. │
│ directly stated or read) │ fast │ Inferences compound error │
├───────────────────────────┼──────────┼──────────────────────────────┤
│ MEMORY.md / CLAUDE.md │ Very │ Loaded at session start, │
│ (persistent context) │ slow │ treat as stable unless user │
│ │ │ indicates changes │
└───────────────────────────┴──────────┴──────────────────────────────┘
亦設抑之信——試而敗之標:
- 具呼敗後:注敗式(防重呼同)
- 棄法後:注由(防無新證再訪)
- 用者更正後:注何誤(防重誤)
得: 當境資新之心模。識何新、何需更前依。
敗則: 若新難評,默於末五至十作未驗者「重讀前用」。過更耗力而防陳訛。
第三步:定地方之協
立簡之則使推於每步進,只用地方可得之資。
Local Protocol Rules:
┌──────────────────────┬────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Protocol │ Rule │
├──────────────────────┼────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Safety │ Before using a fact, check: when was it last │
│ │ verified? If below freshness threshold, │
│ │ re-verify before proceeding │
├──────────────────────┼────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Response │ When the user corrects something, update all │
│ │ downstream reasoning that depended on the │
│ │ corrected fact. Trace the dependency chain │
├──────────────────────┼────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Exploitation │ When a sub-task produces useful output, note │
│ │ the output clearly for downstream sub-tasks. │
│ │ The note is the trail signal │
├──────────────────────┼────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Exploration │ When stuck on a sub-task for >3 actions │
│ │ without progress, check under-explored │
│ │ channels: different tools, different files, │
│ │ different framing │
├──────────────────────┼────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Deposit │ After completing a sub-task, summarize its │
│ │ output in 1-2 sentences for future reference. │
│ │ This deposit serves the next sub-task │
├──────────────────────┼────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Inhibition │ Before trying an approach, check: was this │
│ │ already tried and failed? If so, what is │
│ │ different now that would change the outcome? │
└──────────────────────┴────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
此諸協簡足每步施而無顯冗。
得: 輕則改協質而不緩行。則宜助非累。
敗則: 若協感累,減至當任之二要:Construction 用 Safety + Deposit;Foraging 用 Safety + Exploration;用戶活反之任用 Safety + Response。
第四步:校資新
於當境主動察資之陳。
- 何實已立逾 N 訊前?列之
- 每:自彼已更、違、無關乎?
- 察壓之失:有記而視境不再可尋乎?
- 察早謀與當行之偏:法已變而謀未更乎?
- 重驗二三最要之實(最多下推賴之者)
Freshness Audit Template:
┌────────────────────────┬──────────┬──────────────┬─────────────────┐
│ Fact │ Source │ Age (approx) │ Status │
├────────────────────────┼──────────┼──────────────┼─────────────────┤
│ │ │ │ Fresh / Stale / │
│ │ │ │ Unknown / Lost │
└────────────────────────┴──────────┴──────────────┴─────────────────┘
得: 明之資新清單附陳項識以更。至少一實重驗——若無需更,察過淺或境真新。
敗則: 若察露顯資失(多實「Lost」或「Unknown」),此兆行 heal 為全子系評。資失逾閾意協於基已陷。
第五步:試湧連貫
驗子任合時生連貫之全。
- 每子任之出清入次乎?或有隙、悖、假設不合?
- 具呼進目乎?或重(重讀同檔、重搜同尋)?
- 總向仍合用者求乎?或漸偏積為顯失?
- 壓試:若一關假誤,幾多作連?高連 = 脆協。低連 = 健協。
Coherence Test:
┌────────────────────────────────────┬─────────────────────────────────┐
│ Check │ Result │
├────────────────────────────────────┼─────────────────────────────────┤
│ Sub-task outputs compatible? │ Yes / No / Partially │
│ Tool calls non-redundant? │ Yes / No (list repeats) │
│ Direction aligned with request? │ Yes / Drifted (describe) │
│ Single-assumption cascade risk? │ Low / Medium / High │
└────────────────────────────────────┴─────────────────────────────────┘
得: 總連貫之明評附具體問識。連貫協如部之相扣;不連如強拼片。
敗則: 若連差,識子任偏之具點。常為一陳假或未處之用者正傳於下作。修偏點後重驗下出。
驗
- 協問以類分
- 所賴實之衰率已慮
- 地方之協已施(尤 Safety 與 Deposit)
- 新察識陳資(或以證確新)
- 跨子任試湧連貫
- 抑信已敬(試而敗不重)
陷
- 過工之信:繁協慢作勝於助。始於 Safety + Deposit;問現則加他
- 信陳境:最常協敗乃賴二十訊前真而今更或無效之資。疑則重讀
- 忽抑信:敗法無變而重試非堅——乃忽敗信。再試必有所異以成
- 無存:子任畢而不注其出使後子任重生或重讀。簡摘省顯重作
- 假連貫:不試子任實合連貫之全。各子任獨正而合不連——合乃協敗處
