"Iterative Causal Inquiry Master"
Strategic Directive
A recursive diagnostic framework used to bypass superficial symptoms and isolate the foundational systemic flaw. By repeatedly querying the causal layer beneath each observation, the model uncovers the 'Node of Origin' where the failure actually resides.
How to Use It
The model generates exactly five levels of causal inquiry, moving from the physical trigger to the systemic weakness, and proposes a repair for the deepest identified layer.
When to Use It
Critical for troubleshooting recurring bugs, analyzing production outages, and improving broken business processes where the immediate cause is just a symptom.
