Free cognitive-bias Agent Skill
Use Rhyme as Reason Effect as a focused cognitive-bias lens. Explain the pattern, check whether it plausibly fits the situation, surface an alternative non-bias explanation, and return a practical counter-check without diagnosing people or claiming causation.
What the agent should do
Do phrases like ‘If the glove doesn’t fit, you must acquit’ sound more convincing just because they rhyme? That’s Rhyme as Reason Effect – the tendency to perceive rhyming statements as more truthful, even when they lack substance.
