# Ensemble Problem Solving

Generates 3 diverse solutions using different strategies (simplicity/performance/extensibility), evaluates with weighted rubric, and selects best approach with rationale

What is it?

* Analyzes the task to determine if ensemble approach is valuable

* Generates 3 distinct prompts using appropriate diversification strategy

* Spawns 3 parallel subagents to develop solutions independently

* Evaluates all solutions using weighted criteria

* Returns the best solution with explanation and alternatives summary

## How to use it?
Install this skill in your Claude environment to enhance ensemble problem solving capabilities. Once installed, Claude will automatically apply the skill's guidelines when relevant tasks are detected. You can also explicitly invoke it by referencing its name in your prompts.

The full source and documentation is available on GitHub.

## Key Features

* Generates 3 diverse solutions using different strategies (simplicity/performance/extensibility), evaluates with weighted rubric, and selects best approach with rationale
* Seamless integration with Claude's development workflow
