SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill helps teams avoid acting on unverified assumptions by forcing explicit verification against behavioral patterns before proceeding. It prompts critical thinking, surface contradictions, and strengthens decision accountability.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Verification protocol: checks decisions against known patterns (e.g., optimization bias, bulk operation risks) and requires explicit evidence.
  • Pattern references: references the pattern library and related vasana notes to ground decisions in documented knowledge.
  • Decision documentation: produces a traceable decision record with assumptions and verifications for future audits.

Quick Start

Ask me to challenge a decision by verifying assumptions against known behavioral patterns before proceeding.
