SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

High-risk decisions often suffer from uncertain facts, unverified assumptions, and insufficient due diligence. This Skill provides a disciplined verification workflow that combines security, architecture, and performance checks with targeted web research to reduce risk before pursuing changes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • CoVe-like risk review: systematically identify and assess the 3–5 highest-impact claims.
  • Multi-domain verification: perform security, infrastructure, and performance checks plus targeted web research to gather evidence.
  • Use Case: ideal for security-critical deployments, infra changes, major refactors, or data-loss risk scenarios where information may be outdated.

Quick Start

Assess the task's risk and trigger the verification steps with a concise plan.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify assumptions before a major infrastructure refactor?▼

To verify assumptions before a major infrastructure refactor, you need a disciplined verification workflow that performs security, infrastructure, and performance checks alongside targeted web research to gather evidence and reduce risk.

What is a CoVe-like risk review for security-critical deployments?▼

A CoVe-like risk review is a systematic process to identify and assess the 3–5 highest-impact claims of a task, ensuring uncertain facts and unverified assumptions are checked before pursuing high-risk changes.

How do I perform due diligence on tasks with data-loss risk?▼

You perform due diligence on data-loss risk tasks by executing multi-domain verification, which combines targeted web research with infrastructure and security checks to validate time-sensitive information and outdated facts.

Do I need web access and Bash to run high-risk security reviews?▼

Yes, you need web access and the ability to run lightweight checks via Bash scripts and WebSearch to perform the targeted web research and infrastructure verification required by the high-risk review process.

When should I use an enhanced verification workflow for software engineering tasks?▼

You should use an enhanced verification workflow for security-critical deployments, infrastructure changes, major refactors, or data-loss risk scenarios where information may be time-sensitive or uncertain.
