# Claude Code thinking skills > 28 portable Agent Skills for structured reasoning in Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Codex, Cursor, and other compatible tools Claude Code Thinking Skills is a public catalog of Agent Skills. Use it for decisions, diagnosis, systems, risk, strategy, and innovation. Each skill gives an agent a clear procedure. Use a skill when its mechanism fits the task.  ## Contents Jump to [why use this catalog](#why-use-this-catalog), [quick start](#quick-start), [use a skill](#use-a-skill), [skill catalog](#skill-catalog), [evidence](#evidence), [repository layout](#repository-layout), [checks and contribution](#checks-and-contribution), [questions](#questions), or [license](#license). ## Why use this catalog Use these skills when a problem needs a clear reasoning frame. The catalog covers diagnosis, decisions, creation, risk, execution, product, and strategy. Read the [catalog audit](analysis/AUDIT.md) before making performance claims. ## Quick start ### Skills CLI ```bash npx skills add tjboudreaux/cc-thinking-skills ``` Install all skills without prompts: ```bash npx skills add tjboudreaux/cc-thinking-skills --all ``` ### Claude Code plugin ```text /plugin marketplace add tjboudreaux/cc-thinking-skills /plugin install thinking-skills@thinking-skills-marketplace ``` ### Copy from a clone ```bash git clone https://github.com/tjboudreaux/cc-thinking-skills.git mkdir -p /path/to/project/.agents/skills cp -R cc-thinking-skills/skills/* /path/to/project/.agents/skills/ ``` Claude Code can also load the same directories from `~/.claude/skills/` or `.claude/skills/`. ## Use a skill Start with the router when the right frame is unclear: ```text Use thinking-model-router to choose the right framework for this problem. ``` Invoke a leaf skill when the match is clear: ```text Use thinking-scientific-method to localize this bug. Use thinking-reversibility to classify this architecture decision. Use thinking-pre-mortem to stress-test this launch plan. Use thinking-theory-of-constraints to find the binding bottleneck. ``` The Claude Code plugin uses `thinking-skills:thinking-model-router` as the exact router ID. The router can return `NONE`, one skill, or up to three complementary skills. ## Skill catalog The 28 active skill IDs match the directories under [`skills/`](skills/) ### Route and compose - [`thinking-model-router`](skills/thinking-model-router/); choose `NONE`, one frame, or a few complementary frames - [`thinking-model-combination`](skills/thinking-model-combination/); sequence distinct models when one model leaves a blind spot ### Diagnose and understand - [`thinking-scientific-method`](skills/thinking-scientific-method/); rank causes and test the cheapest discriminator - [`thinking-five-whys-plus`](skills/thinking-five-whys-plus/); find systemic causes after localization - [`thinking-kepner-tregoe`](skills/thinking-kepner-tregoe/); compare IS/IS-NOT defects and must/want options - [`thinking-systems`](skills/thinking-systems/); map flows, feedback, delays, and high-impact points - [`thinking-map-territory`](skills/thinking-map-territory/); resolve conflicts between docs and live behavior - [`thinking-cynefin`](skills/thinking-cynefin/); classify the cause-and-effect domain - [`thinking-socratic`](skills/thinking-socratic/); expose hidden requirements with direct questions ### Decide and evaluate - [`thinking-reversibility`](skills/thinking-reversibility/); separate easy-to-undo choices from costly commitments - [`thinking-opportunity-cost`](skills/thinking-opportunity-cost/); compare a choice with the top forgone use of resources - [`thinking-probabilistic`](skills/thinking-probabilistic/); forecast with base rates, ranges, and belief updates - [`thinking-second-order`](skills/thinking-second-order/); trace delayed effects, incentives, and feedback - [`thinking-steel-manning`](skills/thinking-steel-manning/); build
