Sequential Thinking

A sequential thinking tool for analyzing and solving complex problems step by step. It enables deep analysis through dynamic and reflective problem-solving processes.

Key Features

  • Step-by-step problem analysis and resolution
  • Dynamic thinking process adjustment
  • Review and revision of previous steps
  • Hypothesis generation and verification
  • Multi-approach exploration
  • Uncertainty expression and alternative exploration

Use Cases

Sequential Thinking MCP can be utilized in the following scenarios:

  • Breaking down complex problems step by step
  • Considering modification possibilities in planning and design processes
  • Analysis requiring direction changes during the process
  • Problems where the overall scope is not clear initially
  • Tasks requiring multi-step solutions
  • Situations requiring context maintenance across multiple steps
  • Situations requiring filtering of irrelevant information

Basic Information

Supported MCP Tools

sequentialthinking

A tool for analyzing and solving complex problems step by step.

Input Parameters:

  • thought (required): Content of the current thinking step
  • nextThoughtNeeded (required): Whether additional thinking is needed
  • thoughtNumber (required): Current thinking step number
  • totalThoughts (required): Expected total number of thinking steps
  • isRevision (optional): Whether revising a previous thought
  • revisesThought (optional): Thought step number being revised
  • branchFromThought (optional): Thought step number to branch from
  • branchId (optional): Branch identifier
  • needsMoreThoughts (optional): Whether more thoughts are needed

Usage Example

For example,

  • When you input “Analyze a complex business problem step by step” as a prompt,
  • The LLM calls the sequentialthinking tool multiple times through MCP to systematically analyze the problem.
  • At each call step, it develops thinking, reviews previous steps when necessary, and derives the final solution.
  • Then, it responds in the chat based on the tool call results.
