The Problem
Implementing the new software will improve efficiency, but unintended consequences on employee morale are overlooked.
The Operation
This cognitive operation forces the model to identify the proposed action or conclusion. Trace its first-order effects, the direct, intended consequences. For each first-order effect, ask: what does THIS cause in turn? Trace at least two levels of second-order consequences. Identify any second-order consequence that contradicts or undermines the original goal. Check for distributional effects, does the action benefit one group while harming another? Suppress the tendency to evaluate actions only by their intended effects while ignoring unintended downstream consequences. Evaluate actions only by their intended effects while is rejected.
The Structure
The reasoning structure is a cascade propagation where effects ripple through each stage of the analysis. The loop terminates when no deeper consequences emerge.
If no consequence beyond the first direct effect is named, second-order auditing was skipped.

Cross-Domain Suppression
In Haki mode, the API retrieves the primary ability first, then fans out to three synergy roles that compound its reasoning.
When retrieved in Haki mode, the primary ability is augmented with failure guards extracted from 3 abilities in different cognitive domains. Each guard blocks a specific reasoning failure the primary alone wouldn't catch. A self-check forces verification before output. The result is cross-domain coverage that no single ability can reach alone.
