adversarial-review

What problem does it solve?

This Skill proactively identifies weaknesses, blind spots, and potential failure modes in plans, designs, or systems by adopting an adversarial "red-team" mindset. It prevents costly issues down the line by catching them early in the development cycle.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Systematic Flaw Detection: Guides through 5 phases: challenging assumptions, edge case mining, failure mode analysis, hidden dependencies, and attack vectors, ensuring a comprehensive critique.
• Risk Prioritization: Helps assess the likelihood and impact of potential failures, allowing you to focus on mitigating catastrophic issues first.
• Comprehensive Critique: Ensures a critical, non-superficial review, pushing to find genuine problems rather than just confirming existing assumptions.
• Use Case: You've outlined a new API endpoint. Use this skill to have the AI rigorously challenge its design, identifying potential security vulnerabilities, unexpected edge cases, or implicit dependencies that could lead to production failures, ensuring a more robust and secure API.

Quick Start

Perform an adversarial review on my proposed system design for the new user management service. Focus on potential failure modes and hidden dependencies.
