premortem
Run a premortem on any plan, launch, product, hire, strategy, or decision. Assumes it already failed 6 months from now and works backward to find every reason why. Produces a revised plan with blind spots exposed. MANDATORY TRIGGERS: 'premortem this', 'premortem my', 'run a premortem', 'what could kill this', 'future-proof this', 'stress test this plan', 'what am i missing here', 'find the blind spots'. STRONG TRIGGERS: 'what could go wrong', 'am i missing anything', 'poke holes in this', 'where will this break', 'devil's advocate this'. Do NOT trigger on simple feedback requests, factual questions, or LLM Council requests. DO trigger when someone has a plan or commitment where the cost of being wrong is high.
premortem
Use before committing to a non-trivial plan, design, architecture, migration, launch, or irreversible decision — especially when momentum or optimism is high and nobody has named what could go wrong. Triggers when you're about to start executing a plan, when stakes are high or the decision is hard to reverse, or when the user asks to stress-test, pressure-test, or sanity-check an approach. Not for generating ideas (that's brainstorming).
premortem
Run a premortem on a plan, launch, product, hire, strategy, partnership, pricing change, or high-stakes decision by assuming it failed 6 months from now and working backward to identify why. Use when the user says "premortem this", "premortem my", "run a premortem", "what could kill this", "future-proof this", "stress test this plan", "what am I missing here", "find the blind spots", "what could go wrong", "am I missing anything", "poke holes in this", "where will this break", or "devil's advocate this" in relation to a concrete plan or commitment. Do not use for simple factual questions, ordinary draft feedback, vague ideas with no plan yet, or LLM Council requests.
