What is Structured Thinking?
Structured Thinking is a modular system that provides MCP clients with specialized tools for approaching complex problems using predefined cognitive frameworks. It acts as a "thinking scratchpad" that guides problem-solving through explicit, step-by-step reasoning processes optimized for different types of challenges.
How to use Structured Thinking?
Users interact with Structured Thinking through an MCP client. The client presents a problem, the system analyzes the context, recommends appropriate thinking templates, and guides the user through structured steps. Users can also create custom templates for specialized tasks. Code examples are provided for template thinking with auto-selection, manual template selection, verification thinking, and custom template creation.
