# Adaptic Compose the 5-step synoptic cycle to achieve panoramic synthesis across multiple domains. Where sequential analysis produces compromise ("a little of each"), the synoptic cycle produces integration — a unified understanding that holds all domains simultaneously and finds the emergent whole. ## When to Use - A problem genuinely spans 3+ domains and the *interactions between domains* matter more than depth in any one - Sequential analysis (polymath style) has been tried but the synthesis feels like compromise rather than integration - Existing approaches feel like "a little of each" rather than a unified vision - Before major architectural decisions affecting multiple stakeholders - When domain experts disagree and the resolution lies *between* their perspectives, not within any one ## When NOT to Use - Single-domain problems — use the domain agent directly - Well-understood trade-offs where polymath-style sequential analysis suffices - Self-care or wellness contexts — use the tending team instead - When speed matters more than depth — the full cycle requires sustained attention ## Inputs - **Required**: The problem or question requiring multi-domain synthesis - **Optional**: Explicit list of domains to hold (default: auto-detect from problem context) - **Optional**: Depth setting — `light`, `standard`, or `deep` (default: `standard`) - **Optional**: Expression form — `narrative`, `diagram`, `table`, or `recommendation` (default: `auto`) ## Configuration ```y
