Use when coordinating software development projects requiring multiple specialists (architect, developers, mathematician, statistician, notebook-writer) with quality gates for archival setup, requirements, architecture, pre-mortem, code review, testing, and version control integration.
A deterministic thinking partner that challenges assumptions and applies mental models to sharpen decisions, solve problems, and think more clearly. Use this skill whenever a user says "help me think through X", "challenge my thinking", "what am I missing", "apply mental models to this", "play devil's advocate", "stress test this idea", "poke holes in my plan", "help me decide between X and Y", "what are the second-order effects", "I'm stuck on a decision", names any specific model (SWOT, first principles, inversion, pre-mortem, etc.), or asks for structured reasoning on any ambiguous, high-stakes, or complex problem. Also trigger when the user seems uncertain, is rationalizing, or is asking "am I thinking about this right?" Even casual phrases like "what do you think about..." on non-trivial topics should trigger this skill.
Push the LLM to reconsider, refine, and improve its recent output. Use when user asks for deeper critique or mentions a known deeper critique method, e.g. socratic, first principles, pre-mortem, red team.
Run a pre-mortem risk analysis on a PRD or launch plan. Categorizes risks as Tigers (real problems), Paper Tigers (overblown concerns), and Elephants (unspoken worries), then classifies as launch-blocking, fast-follow, or track. Use when preparing for launch, stress-testing a product plan, or identifying what could go wrong.
Produce a comprehensive, evidence-grounded prioritized action plan from any PM input (notes, transcripts, drafts, executive asks, Slack threads, or a raw situation). Outputs one saveable document with an executive summary, input mirror, situation classification (Cynefin), the binding constraint (Theory of Constraints), prioritized questions and open decisions, a ranked action plan with the critical effort plus follow-ons, risks and pre-mortem, copy/paste prompts for downstream pm-skills, and an evidence map. Builds a source ledger and cites exact input quotes; refuses High-confidence plans for Complex or Chaotic situations. Use when you want the critical next effort and how to execute it.
Annie Duke's Decision Quality framework applied to a business decision. Spawns a team of specialist agents — Resulting Auditor, Calibrator, Pre-Mortem Analyst, Quit Strategist, Process Architect — who each apply a distinct lens from Duke's framework to evaluate whether a decision is sound regardless of outcome. The lead synthesizes into a stacking analysis: which biases are operating, which process flaws exist, and the honest Duke verdict. Use when the user says "duke this", "is this a good bet", "should I quit", "evaluate this decision", or faces any high-stakes choice under uncertainty and wants rigorous decision-process analysis. Works as a standalone analysis or after /office-hours.
/em -challenge — Pre-Mortem Plan Analysis
Run blameless post-mortems and retrospectives with root-cause analysis and action tracking.
Use to stress-test predictions by assuming they failed and working backward to identify why. Invoke when confidence is high (>80% or <20%), need to identify tail risks and unknown unknowns, or want to widen overconfident intervals. Use when user mentions premortem, backcasting, what could go wrong, stress test, or black swans.
