Not describing the scope or decision outcome clearly
Best practice: Define the problem and desired decision in one concrete sentence to guide the analysis with a clear target.
How To Use
Run a full Pensador analysis from first prompt to strategic recommendation.
This playbook shows how to combine Six Thinking Hats and the five-stage OHP Orchestra inside one repeatable workflow.
5-step workflow
Follow this sequence for your first production-grade session.
Step 1
Define the scope and strategic outcome
Describe the full panorama of the problem and define the desired decision, timeline, and success metric in one concrete sentence.
Step 2
Choose the right library context
Pensador is ideal when you need philosophical multi-perspective reasoning. Other apps in the ecosystem keep the same core stack but vary in VectorStore and discussion method.
Step 3
Run Six Thinking Hats
Request White, Red, Black, Yellow, Green, and Blue Hat outputs to surface data, emotion, risk, upside, creativity, and synthesis.
Step 4
Activate OHP Orchestra
Run the five stages in order: Decomposition (scope), Interpretation (meaning), Experience (lived impact), Audit (robustness), and Synthesis (decision brief).
Step 5
Ship an execution-ready brief
Finalize with owners, milestones, and validation criteria so your team can move immediately.
Common mistakes and better defaults
These adjustments improve quality and reduce rework quickly.
Not grounding in the right library context
Best practice: Choose the library that matches your decision type to ensure the methodology and retrieval are optimized for your problem.
Treating OHP or Six Hats as optional on high-stakes decisions
Best practice: Use all five OHP stages or all six Six Thinking Hats when risks, budgets, or brand impact are significant.
FAQ
Quick answers on methodology, architecture, and plan selection.
What makes Pensador different from the other library apps?
All apps share the same core technology, but Pensador specializes in Six Thinking Hats and OHP Orchestra for structured strategic analysis.
Do all libraries use the same technical foundation?
Yes. The ecosystem is built on RAG, semantic chunking, HNSW graphs, PostgreSQL, Node, and Next.js, while each library can vary VectorStore and discussion methodology.
When should I run Six Hats versus OHP Orchestra?
Use Six Hats first to expand perspective coverage, then apply OHP Orchestra to validate assumptions, audit risk, and converge on an execution-ready recommendation.
Can I start without a paid plan?
Yes. Start on Free to validate your first workflow, then upgrade as analysis depth and execution volume increase.
