Pre-mortem risk check

Thinking
MIT

The agent imagines your launch or plan has already failed and works backwards to explain why. It sorts the risks into real threats, overblown worries and unspoken concerns, then marks each one as fix before launch, fix soon after, or just watch.

When to use it

A week or two before a launch, campaign or big purchase, while there is still time to fix what could sink it.

What it can access

Uses the internet
Reads or writes files

Before you enable it: Reads the plan file you give it and may search the web about competitors or market conditions. If that is a concern, remove confidential details from the plan first.

How to install

This skill uses the open Agent Skills format (a folder with a SKILL.md file), so the same file works in several agents.

Claude Code: put the folder in ~/.claude/skills/
Codex: put the folder in ~/.agents/skills/
Other agents that read SKILL.md: follow that agent's skills docs.

Produce a weekly business brief and inbox priorities
The same tester had Muse write a weekly business brief that needed little editing (9/10) and finish a competitor brief in the background after the app was closed (9/10). Inbox prioritization was weaker at 6/10: Muse wrongly reported a sent email as unsent and resurfaced already-fixed items.

Draft a weekly business brief and post-meeting follow-ups
In the same test, a weekly business brief scored 8.6/10 (it came as plain text until a PDF was requested). The post-meeting follow-up email scored lowest, at 7/10: it invented no commitments but was not ready to send and needed two attempts.
