assumption-check
Invoke this skill BEFORE making any load-bearing assertion, recommendation, or decision that rests on unverified external information — whether how a tool/API/framework/platform behaves, specific facts, numbers, or dates you are about to cite, current versions or pricing, or subject-matter details that may be wrong or out of date. Do not wait until something breaks — trigger when the task involves: expert recommendations in a specialized domain, citing figures or benchmarks, designing permission or auth systems, planning API integrations, evaluating tools for adoption, or building any system where a config, SDK behavior, or factual claim is load-bearing. Also trigger when: making a placement or scope decision, choosing a format or convention, deciding build-vs-buy, or any decision where 'I assume X works like Y' or 'I recall X is Y' is the justification. Widely used whenever a decision rests on unverified external state or assertions - behavior, facts, or expertise.
assumption-test
Surfaces the hidden assumptions an idea depends on, sorts them by risk (likelihood-it's-false × damage-if-false) across desirability, viability, feasibility, and usability, then designs the cheapest test for the riskiest ones. Use when you say "what has to be true for this to work," "what's the riskiest assumption," "should we validate before building," "how do we de-risk this bet," or "this idea feels shaky and I can't say why."
