When Stuck - Problem-Solving Dispatch
关于
This skill helps developers identify the right problem-solving technique when they're stuck by matching their specific stuck-symptom to the appropriate method. It provides a quick dispatch system for common scenarios like overwhelming complexity, lack of innovation, or recurring patterns. Use it to efficiently navigate from a blocked state to a targeted solution strategy.

When Stuck - Problem-Solving Dispatch
Overview
Different stuck-types need different techniques. This skill helps you quickly identify which problem-solving skill to use.
Core principle: Match stuck-symptom to technique.
Quick Dispatch

Stuck-Type → Technique
| How You're Stuck | Use This Skill |
|---|---|
| Complexity spiraling - Same thing 5+ ways, growing special cases | skills/problem-solving/simplification-cascades |
| Need innovation - Conventional solutions inadequate, can't find fitting approach | skills/problem-solving/collision-zone-thinking |
| Recurring patterns - Same issue different places, reinventing wheels | skills/problem-solving/meta-pattern-recognition |
| Forced by assumptions - "Must be done this way", can't question premise | skills/problem-solving/inversion-exercise |
| Scale uncertainty - Will it work in production? Edge cases unclear? | skills/problem-solving/scale-game |
| Code broken - Wrong behavior, test failing, unexpected output | skills/debugging/systematic-debugging |
| Multiple independent problems - Can parallelize investigation | skills/collaboration/dispatching-parallel-agents |
| Root cause unknown - Symptom clear, cause hidden | skills/debugging/root-cause-tracing |
Process
- Identify stuck-type - What symptom matches above?
- Load that skill - Read the specific technique
- Apply technique - Follow its process
- If still stuck - Try different technique or combine
Combining Techniques
Some problems need multiple techniques:
- Simplification + Meta-pattern: Find pattern, then simplify all instances
- Collision + Inversion: Force metaphor, then invert its assumptions
- Scale + Simplification: Extremes reveal what to eliminate
Remember
- Match symptom to technique
- One technique at a time
- Combine if first doesn't work
- Document what you tried
