🧠 Claude Metacognitive Skill: Frosty

This repository contains a specialized prompt or set of instructions designed to enhance Claude's metacognitive abilities, allowing it to better plan, monitor, and evaluate its own reasoning processes for improved output quality and reliability.

✨ What Does This Skill Do?

• [Briefly explain the primary benefit, e.g.,] It forces Claude to use a three-step internal process (Deconstruct, Solve, Reflect) before providing the final answer.
• [Explain the outcome, e.g.,] Reduces hallucination rates by requiring internal error checking.
• [Mention a specific use case, e.g.,] Ideal for complex analysis, coding tasks, or multi-step problem-solving.
