What problem does it solve?
The Devil's Advocate skill prevents overconfidence and reveals hidden risks by systematically challenging positive investment conclusions, exposing faulty assumptions, and simulating adverse scenarios to improve decision robustness.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Assumption Challenge Framework: Identifies and questions core assumptions behind sector outlooks, fund picks, and allocation choices.
- Scenario Inversion & Historical Patterns: Generates worst-case scenario analyses and maps historical failure modes to current recommendations.
- Structured Output Templates: Produces a Devil's Advocate section with assumption challenges, "What Could Go Wrong" checklists, probabilistic adjustments, and monitoring triggers for multi-agent workflows.
- Use Case: After a sector overweight recommendation, run the skill to produce an assumption table, two high-impact failure scenarios, estimated losses, and recommended hedges.
Quick Start
Ask the Devil's Advocate to challenge the current sector outlook by listing the core assumptions, two credible failure scenarios with triggers, and a revised confidence score.
