I Ching Coin Hexagram Divination

Problem

This skill turns vague questions such as “today's luck” or “should I do this?” into a reproducible I Ching coin hexagram workflow. It does not infer answers from chat history or user profiles; it relies on the fixed rules in SKILL.md, the script JSON output, and references/hexagrams.md.

How It Works

The flow has four stages: confirm the question, run the pre-casting guidance, then execute the script to generate six coin-toss lines. The script outputs fields such as lines, ben_gua_name, zhi_gua_name, changing_positions, and ben_gua_najia, while trying random sources like ANU, random.org, and os.urandom.

It then routes the question by type:
- Type A, simple decisions: uses the Zhu Xi changing-yao method, selecting hexagram or line text based on the number of changing lines.
- Type B, complex interpersonal matters: uses the Shi-Ying six-line method, combining the Shi line, Ying line, Five Elements, and useful god positions to judge relationships and outcomes.

Output is conclusion-first: a one-sentence verdict, key judgments, brief analysis, and advice, avoiding dense terminology.

Boundaries

It is useful for structured hexagram interpretation prompts, not for treating hexagrams as fixed facts. A/B routing is strict and should not be mixed; repeated casting on the same issue can increase subjective noise, so use it carefully.
