SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Solo founders often get stuck choosing between two or three concrete options (build A vs B, ship now vs polish, free vs paid) and lose days to deliberation. This Skill forces a fast, regret-minimizing decision using a fixed four-line framework. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Four-Line Comparison Framework: Evaluates each option on cost, reversal cost, best-case 30-day signal, and worst-case 30-day signal. - Regret-Minimization Tiebreaker: Applies the question "In 12 months, which choice will I regret not having tried?" to break ties. - Structured Table Output: Always produces a compact comparison table with a one-sentence recommendation. - Use Case: A founder debating whether to rebuild a landing page in Framer or keep a hand-coded Next.js page gets a side-by-side table and a clear ship recommendation in one pass. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to help you decide between two options you are stuck on, such as "Should I ship now or polish for another week?"

Frequently Asked Questions about ship-decision

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I decide between two product options as a solo founder?▼

Fill in four lines per option: cost in hours and dollars, reversal cost if wrong, best-case 30-day signal, and worst-case 30-day kill signal. If reversal cost is under a week and a kill signal exists, ship the option you would regret not trying.

What is the regret-minimization framework for decisions?▼

Regret minimization asks which choice you would regret not having tried in 12 months. When reversal cost is low and a clear 30-day kill signal exists, pick the higher-regret option and stop deliberating.

When should I not use a quick decision framework?▼

Avoid quick frameworks for legally or financially binding decisions like contracts or equity splits, which need a lawyer or accountant. Also skip it when the user is venting rather than deciding, or when options are not yet concretely named.

How do I define a kill signal for a product experiment?▼

A kill signal is an observable worst-case 30-day outcome that tells you to stop, such as a conversion rate drop or flat growth. Define it before shipping so the decision to reverse is objective rather than emotional.

Can this framework handle decisions with more than three options?▼

The framework is designed for two to three concrete options. With more options, narrow the field first by eliminating choices with high reversal cost or no measurable 30-day signal before applying the comparison table.
