A step-by-step reasoning protocol for problems that exceed one intuitive step — generate and compare candidates, track assumptions, reason backward or from a minimal case when stuck, sanity-check intermediates, and run a mandatory devil's-advocate pass before finalizing. Trigger this the moment a problem is novel, high-stakes, involves multiple interacting constraints, requires arithmetic/counting/state-tracking, or you're unsure what the next step is. Do NOT trigger for problems too large to hold in working memory (use extended-problem-solving, which externalizes to disk) or for routine one-step answers. This skill is for thinking a hard thing through in-context; its sibling is for thinking a huge thing through on paper.
