Minto Pyramid Principle

by WiseChef

Analyze any draft or idea against the Minto Pyramid Principle and deliver actionable restructuring recommendations. Extracts the pyramid (one-sentence answer, 2-4 MECE arguments, evidence per argument), diagnoses gaps, and delivers the fix as a visual HTML artifact: the pyramid rendered as a hierarchy, the exact opener to use, and a numbered restructuring plan. Use before any drafting, editing, or rewriting skill so the structure is sound before voice work begins. MANDATORY TRIGGERS: 'minto this', 'run minto', 'apply minto', 'minto-ify', 'pyramid this', 'build the pyramid', 'pyramid principle this', 'answer-first this', 'structure this as a pyramid'. STRONG TRIGGERS: 'what is the takeaway', 'is this MECE', 'does this hold up logically', 'pressure-test this', 'give me the one-sentence answer'. Do NOT trigger on requests to draft content, edit voice, or compress to a platform.
