SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you assess the ethics of a decision, action, or situation without doing a slow, multi-step ethics process, producing a structured report across major ethical frameworks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Five-framework analysis in sequence: Applies utilitarian, deontological, virtue, care ethics, and justice/fairness to the same decision context.
  • Agreement vs. conflict synthesis: Identifies where frameworks converge and where values collide, clarifying the ethical tension.
  • Actionable recommendation: Produces a practical recommendation with conditions or safeguards based on the combined assessment.
  • Scope control: Uses a user prompt to choose depth (full analysis, key findings, conflicts only, or refine the framing).

Quick Start

FAQPage Schema
How do I run an ethics assessment for a business decision?

To run an ethics assessment, provide a description of the decision, who is affected, and the relevant conditions. The tool evaluates the situation using utilitarian, deontological, virtue, care, and justice frameworks to produce a comprehensive report.

What ethical frameworks are applied during a decision evaluation?

Ethical decision evaluations apply utilitarian, deontological, virtue, care, and justice/fairness frameworks sequentially to the same context. This identifies where the frameworks converge and where values collide, clarifying ethical tensions for your final report.

Can I get a quick ethical analysis without a slow multi-step process?

Yes, you can generate a fast, full ethics assessment in one pass. By processing all five ethical frameworks sequentially in a single execution, it delivers a structured report without requiring a slow, manual multi-step deliberation process.

How do I identify value conflicts when making a policy choice?

Value conflicts are identified through an agreement versus conflict synthesis. After evaluating the decision across the five ethical frameworks, the analysis highlights where the underlying values collide, producing a summary of the values at stake.

Does the ethics report include actionable recommendations or just analysis?

The ethics report includes an actionable recommendation with conditions or safeguards based on the combined assessment. It synthesizes the agreement and conflict across all evaluated frameworks to provide practical guidance for your decision.

Can I adjust the scope of an ethical framework analysis to focus only on conflicts?

Yes, you can adjust the analysis scope via user input. You can choose to run a full analysis, extract key findings only, focus exclusively on the identified conflicts, or refine the framing of the ethical dilemma before processing.
