# Action Runner Skill The library is great at *recommending* work. This skill executes it — the action layer of the [Professional Brain](../professional-brain/SKILL.md) (Phase 2). A skill says "open a ticket per checklist item"; this turns that into real GitHub/Linear/Slack actions, **safely**: previewed, risk-rated, approved, then recorded. The cardinal rule: **nothing acts silently.** ## What This Skill Produces 1. A **dry-run actions plan** — every proposed action with its target, operation, and **risk**. 2. After approval, the **executed actions** (via the connected action MCP) — outbound/destructive ones gated individually. 3. A **record back to the brain** of what was actually done, with provenance. ## Required Inputs Ask for (if not already provided): - **The recommendations to act on** (a launch checklist, PRD requirements, postmortem follow-ups…). - **The connected action MCP** and **targets** — which GitHub repo / Linear project / Slack channel. Scope is limited to what the user names; never act outside it. - **Approval posture** — what may run with a single OK vs. what needs per-action confirmation. ## How it works ``` recommend → build an actions plan (JSON) → preview + risk-gate → approve → execute → record ``` 1. **Build the plan** — express each action as JSON: `{"target","op","args","why","risk?"}`. 2. **Preview + gate** — run the helper; it prints a dry-run, classifies risk (🟢 low / 🟡 medium / 🔴 high), and **refuses to proceed while any 🔴 ou...
