first-principles-decomposition

Breaks problems down to fundamental truths before rebuilding solutions from scratch. Use this skill when the user needs to escape inherited assumptions, rethink something from scratch, or when existing solutions feel wrong. Trigger when the user says "from scratch", "first principles", "why do we even", "start over", "rethink this", "fundamental question", "is this the right approach", "what if we threw this out", or when a problem has been solved the same way repeatedly without questioning whether the approach itself is correct. Also trigger when the user is stuck in a loop of incremental fixes.
