anti-rationalization
CommunityNever skip the steps that prevent bugs.
System Documentation
What problem does it solve?
Anti-rationalization stops the common LLM habit of skipping required work by treating “rationalizing” as a contract violation rather than a suggestion.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Prevents step-skipping during execution: Forces the executor to perform the step it is trying to skip when a rationalization appears.
- Improves reliability through verification: Redirects “it obviously works” into explicit investigation and evidence collection.
- Supports refactors with confidence: Converts “behavior isn’t changing” into a requirement for proof via tests or verification.
Use case: When implementing a refactor that touches routing and config, the skill blocks thoughts like “this is just a config change” and ensures the workflow still includes investigation, verification, and the required completion contract.
Quick Start
Tell your agent to complete a task using the Supermind executor contract, and it will block any attempt to rationalize skipping required steps.
