| Signal | radical-simplification Cognitive moves for collapsing complexity — reframe, clarify, reduce, decompose, invert, constrain, transfer, generalize, audit — distilled from the working method of mathematicians, physicists, and software engineers known for turning hard problems into simple solutions (Pólya, Feynman, Hamming, Brooks, Knuth, Dijkstra, Lamport, Tao, Grothendieck, Munger, Hofstadter). Use when stuck on a complex problem, when a proposed design feels overengineered, when reviewing code that has accreted accidental complexity, or when the user wants an elegant solution to a hard engineering or product problem. Triggers on phrases like "this feels too complicated", "we are going in circles", "there must be a simpler way", "interview me about this plan", "find the underlying problem", and on stuck-state moments where forward search has run out and the agent needs a different angle. | Nuclei Nuclei is a fast, customizable vulnerability scanner powered by the global security community and built on a simple YAML-based DSL, enabling collaboration to tackle trending vulnerabilities on the internet. It helps you find vulnerabilities in your applications, APIs, networks, DNS, and cloud configurations. | Maigret 🕵️♂️ Collect a dossier on a person by username from 3000+ sites | Zaproxy The ZAP by Checkmarx Core project |
