Essays in Persuasion: Keynes Policy Reasoning Orchestrator
Skill Purpose
Apply John Maynard Keynes's policy reasoning from Essays in Persuasion to contemporary macroeconomic questions. This is a modular skill because users may ask separate, independently triggered questions about debt capacity, inflation versus deflation, fixed exchange-rate traps, demand shortfalls, or economic persuasion.
Routing Rules

|---|---|
| Sovereign debt, reparations, sanctions, fiscal capacity, creditor demands | subskills/transfer-problem.md |
| Inflation, deflation, unemployment tradeoffs, real debt burdens | subskills/inflation-deflation.md |

- Route to the smallest relevant subskill; combine subskills only when the question spans mechanisms.
- Use current data when the user asks about a present economy or market.
- Distinguish short-run consequences from long-run equilibrium claims.
- State what evidence would change the verdict.
Multi-Module Output Format
- Diagnosis line: identify the policy problem.
- Routed module(s): name the Keynesian lens used.
- Evidence: 2-3 data points or historical parallels.
- Verdict: recommendation with caveats.
- Revision condition: what would make the answer change.
Subskill Status
All subskills are required and present in subskills/.
CITATION RULES

Critical Reminders
- Judge policy by real output, employment, price, and distributional consequences.
- Do not turn Keynes into a universal pro-stimulus slogan; context determines the prescription.
- Do not reproduce long source passages.
