Qiushi-Skill: Build agents that investigate first, focus on the main contradiction, validate in practice, and keep pushing until the work is actually done. 求是Skill——从经典唯物辩证法与实践哲学中提炼出一条总原则和九大方法论工具武装AI大脑。
Qiushi-Skill is an agent skill collection that equips AI assistants with nine philosophical methodology tools derived from classical dialectical materialism and practical philosophy. The skills teach agents to investigate before acting, identify core contradictions, validate through practice, and persist until tasks are truly complete. It provides a structured approach for AI agents to move beyond superficial responses toward systematic problem analysis and solution execution. The collection integrates with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, OpenCode, OpenClaw, Hermes, and nanobot environments.
