before-you-build

Pre-build product and feature risk review for founders, product managers, and AI-assisted builders. Use this skill when the user is about to build a landing page, MVP, SaaS product, internal tool, agent workflow, or major feature and needs to check demand, positioning, monetization, retention, trust, distribution, and adoption risk before implementation starts.

Quality

Content

86%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

A compact, well-structured instruction-only skill that keeps the overview in SKILL.md and delegates deeper questions to a real reference file. Actionability and workflow clarity are strong but could be strengthened with a short worked example.

Suggestions

Add one short worked example showing a sample risk verdict and the five-part output for a concrete idea, to raise actionability.

Include an explicit checkpoint for when to escalate to references/risk-checklist.md beyond the single 'verdict not obvious' cue.

Show a brief example of a 'reduced build scope' recommendation so the Do-next and Delay outputs are unambiguous.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Lean ~45-line body that assumes Claude's competence; no padding or explanation of concepts Claude already knows, and every section earns its place.

5 / 5

Actionability

Provides concrete checklist questions and a specific five-part output format, but lacks any worked example of a verdict or sample output to anchor the guidance.

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

Clear sequence from risk review through a conditional reference checkpoint to a numbered output format, though there is no explicit validation or feedback loop for the verdict.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Well-organized overview sections with a single clearly signaled one-level-deep reference (references/risk-checklist.md, which exists) for deeper questions, splitting content appropriately.

Description

92%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong description that clearly states what the skill does and when to use it, with concrete risk dimensions and natural trigger terms. Voice is appropriately third person throughout.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete review actions across seven named risk dimensions (demand, positioning, monetization, retention, trust, distribution, adoption), giving comprehensive coverage of what the skill does.

5 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both 'what' (pre-build product and feature risk review) and 'when' ('Use this skill when the user is about to build...') with concrete trigger phrases.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Includes natural trigger phrases users say ('landing page, MVP, SaaS product, internal tool, agent workflow, or major feature') with good coverage, but misses common variations like 'prototype', 'launch', or 'new feature' that appear in the body.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Occupies a clear pre-build pre-mortem niche with distinct triggers (before implementation starts) and minimal overlap risk with other skills.
