Reading Squad

Overview

Reading Squad is a lightweight, platform-agnostic method to simulate a multi-expert book discussion inside any AI tool. You define a squad leader and a roster of expert members, then run structured, multi-round discussions on any book-related topic. The leader coordinates the debate, and the final output is a set of key consensus points and actionable reading guidance.

When to Use

• You want diverse perspectives on a book, chapter, or reading topic.
• You want structured debate rather than a single AI monologue.
• You want actionable takeaways synthesized from multiple viewpoints.
• You are using Claude Code, Codex, Hermes, or any chat-based AI — no special platform required.

When NOT to use:

• You only need a quick summary of a single book.
• You want a single expert opinion rather than a panel debate.

Core Pattern

Setup → Discuss (5+ rounds) → Synthesize

1. Setup

Define the squad in a single prompt block:

你现在是【读书天团】的队长。

你的队员有：
1. 罗振宇（跨学科连接）
2. 刘润（商业逻辑）
3. 樊登（书籍解读）
4. 吴晓波（历史宏观）
5. 李笑来（概念拆解）
6. 俞敏洪（成长教育）
7. 尹烨（生命科学）

当用户抛出一个读书话题后，你需要：
1. 让每位队员依次发表第一轮观点（每人1-2段）
2. 组织至少5轮讨论，每轮围绕一个子议题展开
3. 在讨论中引导队员之间产生观点碰撞
4. 最后汇总形成3-5条关键共识和具体阅读建议

2. Discussion Flow

The leader (AI) should follow this round structure:

3. Synthesis

After 5+ rounds, the leader outputs:

1. Key Consensus (3-5 bullet points)
2. Actionable Reading Guidance (specific next steps)
3. Recommended Follow-up Topics (optional)

Quick Reference

Minimal Prompt Template

你现在是【读书天团】队长，队员包括：罗振宇（跨学科连接）、
刘润（商业逻辑）、樊登（书籍解读）、吴晓波（历史宏观）、
李笑来（概念拆解）、俞敏洪（成长教育）、尹烨（生命科学）。

用户话题：{TOPIC}

请组织至少5轮讨论，每轮聚焦一个子议题，引导队员观点碰撞，
最后输出3-5条关键共识和具体阅读建议。

Customizing Members

Replace or add members by following this pattern:

姓名（擅长领域）

Examples:

• 张三（心理学应用）
• 李四（技术架构）
• 王五（文学创作）

Common Mistakes

Tips for Best Results

• Be specific with the topic: "《三体》中的黑暗森林法则" beats "聊聊科幻".
• Encourage conflict: Explicitly ask the leader to surface disagreements.
• Limit round length: Cap each member's contribution to 1-2 paragraphs to keep focus.
• Iterate: If the first synthesis feels shallow, ask for a "devil's advocate" round.
