What it is

xinqingnian‑maoxuan‑skill is a skill (i.e. a reusable prompt/template) for AI‑agent platforms such as Claude Code and OpenAI Codex. The skill encodes a four‑step reasoning process inspired by the Mao Zedong Selected Works (“毛选”) and presents the output as a structured text analysis plus an optional single‑file HTML report.

Who it helps

It targets people who face structural or relationship problems that feel “stuck”:

• Projects that have hit a dead‑end despite everyone being busy
• Team or partnership conflicts where responsibilities and boundaries are unclear
• Decision‑making situations (career change, partnership breakup, etc.) where many factors are tangled
• Any scenario where the surface looks like a simple friction but the root cause is a deeper organizational or procedural structure.

How it works

1. Information check – the skill first decides whether it has enough facts. If not, it asks clarifying questions; otherwise it proceeds.
2. Problem deconstruction – it breaks the situation into phenomenon, structure, stage and identifies the single factor that is currently driving the whole picture.
3. Route planning – it proposes concrete next steps, ordering, boundaries and risk notes rather than just high‑level slogans.
4. Delivery – the result is returned as:
   • a concise text analysis (facts, core judgment, current stage, recommended route, risks, next actions)
   • an optional HTML report that bundles the same information with visual aids (timeline, relation graph, control‑point table, etc.) that can be saved, shared, or revisited.

The skill is deliberately not a quote‑generator; it only uses the “Mao‑style” tone when it helps the logical flow.

Installation & use

• Claude Code – place the repository under .claude/skills/ (project‑local or ~/.claude/skills/).
• Codex – copy it into $CODEX_HOME/skills/ or ~/.codex/skills/.
• Once installed, invoke it with natural language, e.g.

  用新青年帮我分析这个项目为什么卡住
  

  or by feeding the full template:

  请用毛选拆局的方法帮我分析这件事。
  我的目标：…
  最近关键事件：…
  …
  最后帮我输出一份HTML报告。
  

What you get

• Text output – a three‑part answer (situation, global‑pulling factor, immediate actions).
• HTML report – a single‑file webpage containing:
  • cover with overall judgment
  • relation graph
  • suggested route & key actions
  • evidence chain & control‑point table
  • people‑detail list
  • method citations

These artifacts are meant for later review, sharing with teammates, or attaching to project documentation.

Limits

• Not suitable if you only want raw quotations from the original Mao Selected Works.
• Not a tool for technical debugging or low‑complexity advice.
• Should not be used to weaponise the methodology against others; it is intended for constructive problem‑solving.

In short: the repository provides a ready‑to‑use prompt/skill that lets LLM agents act as a “temporary strategist” using a structured, four‑step analysis method, and it can export the reasoning as a tidy HTML report.
