what-if-scenario-builder

Structured methodology for constructing rigorous "what if?" scenarios combining foresight frameworks (Shell, Schwartz, Manoa, Intuitive Logics), deep analytical tools (CLA, Cross-Impact, Morphological, Counterfactual History, Futures Wheels, Analogy Search), stress-testing techniques (Pre-Mortem, Red Teaming, Base Rate Check), and quantitative patterns (Monte Carlo, Agent-Based, Backcasting). Includes Divergence Depth selection, Temporal Cascade framing, and Agency Uncertainty principles. Use whenever the user asks "what if?", wants to explore hypotheticals, build scenarios, analyze alternatives, stress-test plans, or imagine how things could be different. Also trigger on: scenario planning, contingency analysis, alternative futures, speculative reasoning, "imagine if", "suppose that", thought experiments, futurecasting, counterfactual — even without explicit "what if.
