Turns relationships, patterns, and leverage points into a tangible result by describing an event, identifying patterns, and selecting interventions.
Core question: Which patterns, structures, and mental models create the recurring events, and on which layer is an intervention sustainable?

Systems ThinkingCategory: Systems Thinking. Describes the method's domain of use.
Moves relationships, patterns, and leverage toward a concrete result through "formulate current observations", "introduce archetype cards", and "discuss leverage and derive actions".
Core question: Which archetype best explains recurring symptoms, and which levers are typical for this archetype?

Knowledge ModelingCategory: Knowledge Modeling. Describes the method's domain of use.
Reusable modeling patterns solve recurring ontology structures without redesigning the same semantic shape each time.
Core question: Which modeling pattern solves the current problem so that it fits competency questions, the existing model, and reuse strategy?

OperationsCategory: Operations. Describes the method's domain of use.
A recurring incident pattern links related cases across time so systemic causes become visible beyond one event.
Core question: Which earlier or parallel incidents form a family with the target incident, and what systemic patterns become visible through that relationship?
