# Decision Framework > *"Good decisions come from good frameworks, not good luck."* ## When This Skill Activates - Making or advising on decisions with multiple options - Keywords: "decide", "decision", "choose", "evaluate", "compare", "should we" - Default for: Starlight Navigator, Starlight Prime ## What This Skill Does Provides structured decision-making frameworks that ensure decisions are rational, well-documented, and revisitable. Prevents decision paralysis and gut-only decisions. ## Procedures ### Procedure 1: Decision Matrix 1. List all options (minimum 2, ideally 3-5) 2. Define criteria for evaluation 3. Weight criteria by importance (total = 100%) 4. Score each option on each criterion (1-10) 5. Calculate weighted scores 6. Identify the winner and runner-up 7. Sanity-check: does the quantitative winner feel right? 8. If not, examine what criterion was underweighted ### Procedure 2: Reversibility Analysis 1. For each option, assess: Is this reversible? 2. Reversible decisions → Decide fast, learn fast 3. Irreversible decisions → Decide carefully, gather more data 4. Document the reversibility of the chosen path 5. Plan escape routes for partially-reversible decisions ### Procedure 3: Pre-Mortem 1. Assume the decision has been made and failed 2. Ask: "Why did it fail?" 3. List all plausible failure modes 4. For each failure mode, assess probability and impact 5. Identify mitigations for high-risk failures 6. Incorporate mitigations into the decision plan
