SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

High-risk decisions often suffer from uncertain facts, unverified assumptions, and insufficient due diligence. This Skill provides a disciplined verification workflow that combines security, architecture, and performance checks with targeted web research to reduce risk before pursuing changes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • CoVe-like risk review: systematically identify and assess the 3–5 highest-impact claims.
  • Multi-domain verification: perform security, infrastructure, and performance checks plus targeted web research to gather evidence.
  • Use Case: ideal for security-critical deployments, infra changes, major refactors, or data-loss risk scenarios where information may be outdated.

Quick Start

Assess the task's risk and trigger the verification steps with a concise plan.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify assumptions before a major infrastructure refactor?

To verify assumptions before a major infrastructure refactor, you need a disciplined verification workflow that performs security, infrastructure, and performance checks alongside targeted web research to gather evidence and reduce risk.

What is a CoVe-like risk review for security-critical deployments?

A CoVe-like risk review is a systematic process to identify and assess the 3–5 highest-impact claims of a task, ensuring uncertain facts and unverified assumptions are checked before pursuing high-risk changes.

How do I perform due diligence on tasks with data-loss risk?

You perform due diligence on data-loss risk tasks by executing multi-domain verification, which combines targeted web research with infrastructure and security checks to validate time-sensitive information and outdated facts.

Do I need web access and Bash to run high-risk security reviews?

Yes, you need web access and the ability to run lightweight checks via Bash scripts and WebSearch to perform the targeted web research and infrastructure verification required by the high-risk review process.

When should I use an enhanced verification workflow for software engineering tasks?

You should use an enhanced verification workflow for security-critical deployments, infrastructure changes, major refactors, or data-loss risk scenarios where information may be time-sensitive or uncertain.
