Explain
`Profile Standard` + `Strict on`
Application matrix
Choose the mode for the task. The framework improves fit, not quality in a universal way.
The strongest levers are usually profile choice, SCI on/off, and Strict/Explore overlay. Use the smallest combination that still fits the question type.
Quick defaults
Five robust starting points
Deep check
`Profile Expert` + `SCI on` (A) + `Strict on`
Challenge
`Profile Sparring` + `Strict on`
Explore
`Profile Sandbox` + `Explore on`
Condense
`Profile Briefing` + `Strict on`
Normal mode
`Comm Stop`
Question patterns
What to pick and why
Conceptual depth
`Expert + SCI A/B + Strict` for high-precision concept work (for example: "What is time?").
Controversial claims
`Sparring + Strict` or `Expert + SCI E/G + Strict` for counter-arguments and risk checks.
Ideation
`Sandbox + Explore` for search space and unconventional options.
Didactic simplification
`Standard + Strict` or `Briefing + Strict` for concise, teachable outputs.
Practical notes
Keep complexity proportional
SCI recurse is a specialist tool for genuinely nested multi-part tasks. Color affects scanability, not epistemic quality. For most workflows, `Standard + Strict` is the safest default.
