</when_to_use>

<argument_validation>

If $ARGUMENTS is missing, ask immediately:

"What topic should I apply genius thinking to?

Examples:
- Business idea: 'AI-based education service'
- Problem solving: 'Early startup customer acquisition'
- Product innovation: 'Healthcare app differentiation'"

</argument_validation>

<mandatory_reasoning>

Mandatory Sequential Thinking

  • Always use the sequential-thinking tool before any substantial analysis or ideation work.
  • Keep the full reasoning flow in sequential-thinking from Phase 1 to Phase 4 (do not skip phases).
  • If sequential-thinking is unavailable, stop and report the blocker instead of proceeding with ad-hoc reasoning.

10 Formulas + Validated Frameworks

1. Genius Insight (GI) + JTBD

GI = (O * C * P * S) / (A + B)
Variable Meaning Validated Tool
O Depth of observation JTBD prompt: "What job is the user hiring this for?"
C Originality of connections Functional / emotional / social job split
P Pattern recognition Extract cross-case patterns
S Synthesis Integrate insights
A, B Fixed assumptions / bias Lower is better

Source: Christensen Institute - JTBD

2. Multidimensional Analysis (MDA) + Six Thinking Hats

MDA = Sigma[Di * Wi * Ii]
Dimension Hat Perspective
D1 Time White (facts/data)
D2 Space Yellow (opportunity)
D3 Abstraction Green (creativity)
D4 Causality Black (risk/critique)
D5 Hierarchy Red (intuition/emotion)
Meta Blue (process control)

Source: MindTools - Six Thinking Hats

3. Creative Connection (CC) + SCAMPER

CC = |A intersect B| + |A xor B| + f(A -> B)

SCAMPER 7-question checklist:

Question Meaning Example
Substitute Replace? Netflix: DVD -> streaming
Combine Combine? Smartphone = phone + camera + computer
Adapt Borrow? Roll-on deodorant <- ballpoint concept
Modify Magnify/minify? iPad Mini / Pro segmentation
Put to other use New use? McDonald's as real-estate business
Eliminate Remove? Remove waiter-heavy process with self-service
Reverse Reverse? Pay-first -> consume-later reversal patterns

Source: IxDF - SCAMPER

4. Problem Redefinition (PR) + HMW + ERRC

PR = P0 * T(theta) * S(phi) * M(psi)

Required HMW transform: "How might we [verb] [target]?"

Original Problem HMW Transform
Users drop during onboarding How might we create value realization within 10 minutes?
Customer churn is high How might we create daily return behavior?

ERRC Grid (value-innovation check):

Action Question
Eliminate What industry assumptions should be removed?
Reduce What should be reduced below standard?
Raise What should be raised above standard?
Create What should be newly created?

Source: Stanford d.school, Blue Ocean ERRC

5. Innovative Solution (IS) + TRIZ

IS = Sigma[Ci * Ni * Fi * Vi] / Ri

Top TRIZ principles (from 40):

Principle Meaning Typical Application
Segmentation Break into smaller units Microservices
Extraction Isolate essentials MVP
Local quality Local optimization Personalization
Asymmetry Break symmetry Differentiation
Merging Combine functions Super app
Prior action Prepare in advance Predictive analytics
Inversion Reverse approach Reverse-positioning marketing
Intermediary Add mediator layer Platform model
Self-service System serves itself Automation
Copying Imitate then improve Best-practice adaptation

Source: TRIZ Wikipedia

6. Insight Amplification (IA) + Incubation

IA = I0 * (1 + r)^n * C * Q

Incubation effect (cognitive science):

Stage Method Effect
1. Define problem Focused analysis Conscious processing
2. Rest 15-30 min low-load activity Unconscious processing
3. Capture Log first ideas immediately Insight harvesting

Source: ScienceDirect 2024

7. Thought Evolution (TE)

TE = T0 + integral[L(t) + E(t) + R(t)]dt
Function Driver
L(t) Learning Continuous information intake
E(t) Experience Diverse experimentation
R(t) Reflection Metacognition and failure learning

8. Complexity Solving (CS) + Morphological Box

CS = det|M| * Sigma[Si/Ci] * product[Ii]

Zwicky box (morphological analysis):

Parameter Option 1 Option 2 Option 3
Channel App Web Offline
Monetization Subscription Ads Transaction fee
Target B2C B2B B2G

Example combination: App + Subscription + B2C.

Source: Ness Labs - Zwicky Box

9. Intuitive Leap (IL) + DMN-ECN Switching

IL = (S * E * T) / (L * R)

Brain-network switching (creative control):

Network Role Activation
DMN Divergent thought and association Rest / mind wandering
ECN Convergent evaluation Focus / analysis
Switching Core creativity mechanic Intentional transition

Execution loop: DMN (10m) -> ECN (10m) -> repeat.

Source: Nature 2025

10. Integrated Wisdom (IW)

IW = (K + U + W + C + A) * H * E
Variable Meaning
K + U + W Knowledge + understanding + wisdom
C + A Compassion + action
H * E Humility * ethics
