SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

When tasks contain competing objectives, Claude surfaces the conflict instead of silently selecting a priority. This skill ensures the user decides the priority before execution, placing the final output under the user's values rather than Claude's assumptions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Surface conflicts and present explicit gains and costs for each option.
  • Let the user set the priority before execution and apply it consistently.
  • Document the chosen priority and ensure Claude uses it throughout task execution.

Quick Start

Install the SKILL.md into your Claude skills directory to enable conflict surface and user-priority execution.

FAQPage Schema
How do I detect conflicting objectives in a multi-objective task?

To detect conflicting objectives in a multi-objective task, this skill surfaces the conflict by presenting concrete gains and costs for each competing goal before execution. It requires you to explicitly set a priority rather than allowing a silent value judgment.

How do I prioritize between fast and thorough execution in decision support?

To prioritize between fast and thorough execution, you must define your priority before the task runs. The skill documents your chosen priority and ensures execution consistently applies that value throughout the process.

Why does Claude make silent value judgments when handling multi-objective tradeoffs?

Claude makes silent value judgments when handling multi-objective tradeoffs because it lacks explicit user instructions. This skill prevents that by forcing you to set a priority, documenting the choice, and presenting concrete gains and costs.

Can I document chosen priorities for consistent execution reliability?

Yes, you can document chosen priorities for consistent execution reliability. The skill records your selected priority before execution begins and applies it consistently across the entire task to ensure reliable outputs.

What is the best way to surface tradeoffs in scenarios with conflicting goals?

The best way to surface tradeoffs in scenarios with conflicting goals is to present explicit gains and costs for each option. This approach requires user-defined priorities before execution, ensuring the final output matches your values.

When should I not use automated conflict detection for multi-objective decisions?

You should not use automated conflict detection when a task requires immediate autonomous action without pausing for user input. This skill requires you to set a priority and review concrete gains and costs before execution can proceed.
