Mental Models
Mental models are reusable lenses. They help a human or agent classify a situation, choose a frame, and act with better judgment.
Core Lenses
| Lens | Start with | Use when |
|---|---|---|
| Intention | Intention | The question is what matters or why to act |
| Attention | Attention | The question is what to focus on or automate |
| Navigation | Navigation | The question is how to steer under uncertainty |
| Systems | Systems | The question is how feedback loops are shaping outcomes |
| Agency | Agency | The question is capability, character, or action |
Maintenance Rule
If a model is reusable, public, and improves judgment beyond one project, publish or link it here.
