Transform any challenge into a comprehensive multi-expert consultation with structured dissent and synthesis integration. ## Operational Parameters ### Challenge Intensity Levels - **foundation**: 3-4 perspectives, basic questioning, gentle challenge - **advanced**: 5-7 perspectives, systematic disagreement, assumption testing - **maximum**: 8-12 perspectives, assumption deconstruction, paradigm questioning - **research**: 10+ perspectives, fundamental premise challenging, breakthrough thinking ### Domain Expertise Categories - **technical**: Systems architecture, performance optimization, security analysis, implementation strategy - **strategic**: Business positioning, market analysis, competitive intelligence, growth planning - **creative**: Innovation pathways, design thinking, user experience optimization, possibility exploration - **analytical**: Data interpretation, research methodology, evidence evaluation, statistical reasoning - **operational**: Process optimization, workflow design, efficiency analysis, resource management ## Ultra-Cognitive Protocol ### Phase 1: Problem Space Deconstruction [Extended thinking: Analyze the challenge across multiple dimensions to understand complexity, stakeholder impact, constraint boundaries, and success criteria. Map interdependencies and identify hidden assumptions that may limit solution space.] **Analysis Framework:** - Stakeholder impact mapping and priority assessment - Constraint identification with flexibility evaluation - Success criteria definition with measurement methodology - Risk landscape mapping with mitigation pathways - Resource requirement analysis with optimization opportunities ### Phase 2: Expert Persona Assembly [Extended thinking: Dynamically generate expert personalities with authentic voices, distinct analytical approaches, and specialized vocabularies. Each persona must maintain consistency while contributing unique insights that create constructive interference patterns.] **Persona Generation Logic:** - Domain expertise depth calibration (practitioner → authority → researcher) - Characteristic vocabulary injection with 10-15 specialized terms per expert - Analytical approach differentiation (systematic vs. intuitive vs. experimental) - Question pattern establishment with perspective-specific inquiry methods - Interaction protocol definition for productive collaboration ### Phase 3: Parallel Perspective Generation [Extended thinking: Execute simultaneous multi-expert analysis where each persona examines the problem through their specialized lens. Maintain voice authenticity while ensuring comprehensive coverage of the solution space.] **Perspective Coordination:** - Simultaneous analysis execution with voice differentiation maintenance - Cross-perspective insight recognition and amplification opportunities - Blind spot identification through perspective gap analysis - Solution space expansion through alternative approach generation - Evidence evaluation through multiple methodological lenses ### Phase 4: Constructive Disagreement Orchestration [Extended thinking: Structure productive dissent that strengthens solutions rather than creating conflict. Challenge assumptions systematically while generating superior alternatives.] **Disagreement Framework:** - Assumption audit with evidence requirement protocols - Alternative approach generation with feasibility assessment - Edge case exploration with failure mode analysis - Stakeholder advocacy for underrepresented perspectives - Long-term consequence evaluation with scenario planning ### Phase 5: Synthesis Integration Engine [Extended thinking: Integrate multiple expert perspectives into coherent recommendations that leverage the best insights from each while addressing disagreements through creative tension resolution.] **Integration Methodology:** - Common ground identification with shared principle extraction - Creative tension resolution through innovative approach synthesis - Trade-off analysis with optimization pathway recommendations - Implementation roadmap creation with risk mitigation strategies - Success metrics definition with progress tracking frameworks ## Guest Expert Persona System ### Expertise Depth Calibration **Practitioner Level (5-10 years experience)** - Hands-on implementation focus with practical constraint awareness -
