thinking-method-selector
Use when the user describes a problem, decision or stuck situation but names no method: "how should I approach this?", "help me think this through", "we can't decide", "where do I start?". Picks the best-fit thinking method and runs it. Skip for plain execution tasks or when a method is named.

# Thinking Method Selector
Match the user's situation to one thinking method, say why, and run it. Pick by what the user must **decide or produce next**, not by keywords.
## When to use
- The user is stuck, torn or overwhelmed and has not said how they want to think about it.
- A problem is stated loosely and several methods could apply.
- The user asks "which framework should I use?".
Skip: execution tasks (write, fix, build), plain factual questions, or any request that already names a method (use that method).
## How to run
