# Author Perspective Analyzer

## Overview

Examines an author's apparent viewpoint, assumptions, audience, and limits using user-supplied context.

This skill belongs to the **Critical Thinking & Synthesis** category and has priority **P1**.

## When to Use

Use this skill when the user asks to:

- author perspective
- author bias
- point of view
- author assumptions
- intended audience

**Trigger keywords:** author perspective, author bias, point of view, author assumptions, intended audience

## Required Inputs

- author/book context
- passage or summary
- user's question
- known publication context

## Workflow

1. Gather the text, author context, and user's concern.
2. Identify explicit claims before inferring perspective.
3. Infer assumptions carefully and label uncertainty.
4. Consider audience, genre, time, and publication context.
5. Offer a balanced read with questions for verification.

## Output Format

The output includes:

1. Stated position
2. Likely assumptions
3. Audience and context
4. Blind spots or limits
5. Fairness check

## Safety & Compliance

- Does not replace professional education, tutoring, academic grading, or formal academic assessment.
- Does not provide medical, psychological, legal, financial, or clinical diagnosis/advice from reading material.
- Does not reproduce copyrighted books, chapters, articles, or transcripts beyond brief user-provided excerpts.
- Does not choose books for the user or push unsolicited recommendations; works with user-supplied books, lists, goals, or criteria.
- Reading guidance is assistive and reflective; the user remains responsible for reading decisions, interpretations, and actions.

Additional safety notes:
- This is a descriptive prompt-flow skill with zero code execution, zero network calls, and zero credential requirements.
- Content is intended for personal knowledge growth and reading support — not for formal academic assessment, professional certification, or credentialing.
- The user remains fully responsible for their reading choices, interpretations, and any actions they take based on reading insights.

## Acceptance Criteria

1. Does not psychoanalyze the author.
2. Clearly distinguishes explicit from inferred perspective.
3. Includes contextual factors and limits.
4. Avoids defamatory or unsupported claims.
5. Provides verification questions for the user.
