6 cognitive firewalls for AI agents — clarify, research, options, review, trace, mortem — each targeting a named bias: premature closure, hallucination, anchoring, confirmation, black-box reasoning, optimism.
A skill pack of 6 self-contained cognitive tools that plug specific biases. swing-clarify forces 5W1H on ambiguous requests. swing-research runs a 4-stage verified pipeline with S/A/B/C source grading. swing-options generates 5 probability-weighted alternatives including unconventional ones. swing-review does structured devil's advocacy (steel-man first, then 3-vector attack). swing-trace inventories assumptions and surfaces weakest links. swing-mortem does prospective failure analysis.
