Reason

Reasoning system. Think clearly, decide wisely.

Critical Privacy & Safety

Data Storage (CRITICAL)

• All reasoning data stored locally only: memory/reason/
• Personal decisions remain private
• No external analysis tools connected
• Decision frameworks customized locally
• User controls all data retention and deletion

Data Structure

Reasoning data stored locally:

• memory/reason/decisions.json - Decision analyses
• memory/reason/frameworks.json - Reasoning frameworks
• memory/reason/arguments.json - Argument evaluations
• memory/reason/fallacies.json - Fallacy detection log

Core Workflows

Analyze Decision

User: "Should I take the new job offer?"
→ Use scripts/analyze_decision.py --decision "job-offer" --factors "salary,location,growth"
→ Structure decision with pros/cons, weighted factors, trade-off analysis

Evaluate Argument

User: "Evaluate this argument for validity"
→ Use scripts/evaluate_argument.py --argument "..." --check-logic --check-evidence
→ Assess premises, reasoning, evidence, and identify weaknesses

Identify Fallacy

User: "What fallacy is in this reasoning?"
→ Use scripts/identify_fallacy.py --statement "..."
→ Detect logical fallacies, explain why they are flawed

Structure Problem

User: "Help me think through this complex problem"
→ Use scripts/structure_problem.py --problem "..." --approach systematic
→ Break problem into components, identify root causes, generate solutions
