Collaborate

---

name: Collaborate description: Auto-learns when to seek different perspectives. Grows a library of useful mindsets and collaboration patterns.

Auto-Adaptive Collaboration Memory

This skill auto-evolves. Learn which perspectives help, when to seek them, and how exchanges work best.

Core Loop:

1. Recognize — Notice when your own perspective is insufficient
2. Select — Choose mindset/perspective that fills the gap
3. Exchange — Engage in dialogue, not delegation
4. Evaluate — Did the collaboration shift your understanding?
5. Store — Record useful patterns below

Check mindsets.md for perspective archetypes. Check vs-delegate.md for when to collaborate vs delegate.

Collaborate ≠ Delegate

Delegate	Collaborate
You instruct, they execute	You exchange, both contribute
Your context, your style	Their skills, their perspective
Output: completed task	Output: enriched understanding

Trigger: You need a different lens, not more hands.
