testland/risk-storming-facilitator

Reference guide for planning and facilitating a risk-storming session yourself - meeting structure, participant roster, per-category brainstorm prompts (categories from risk-matrix), affinity grouping, impact by likelihood scoring, and mitigation assignment. Static reference only, not an active runner that writes the matrix file. Use to learn or teach the facilitation pattern, or to run a feature-kickoff session without agent assistance. For the matrix artifact itself use risk-matrix, to calibrate its ratings against real defect data use risk-matrix-calibration, and to map the resulting risks onto test coverage use risk-coverage-mapper.

Quality

Content

85%

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

The body is a well-structured, actionable facilitation runbook with a clear step sequence, real reference offloading, and explicit checkpoints. Its only weakness is moderate verbosity from background and duplicated illustrative content.

Suggestions

Trim the Overview origin paragraph (Shostack/Adzic lineage) to one line or move it to References — it does not aid facilitation.

Consolidate the Step 5 and Step 6 illustrative tables with the Worked example, which already demonstrates scoring and mitigation assignment, to remove duplication.

Consider moving the Anti-patterns table into a reference file to shorten SKILL.md while keeping the guidance available.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Mostly efficient and assumes Claude's competence, but the Overview's origin paragraph (Shostack/Adzic background) and the illustrative scoring/mitigation tables duplicate content already shown in the worked example, adding length that could be trimmed.

2 / 3

Actionability

Gives concrete, copy-paste-ready facilitation guidance: a timed session schedule, a participant roster, a 1-5 impact/likelihood scoring rubric, and a mitigation table with owner and due date, plus a real prompts reference file.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

Multi-step process is clearly sequenced as Steps 1-8 with a session timeline, explicit checkpoints (5-min debate cap, disagreement flagging), and a post-session sprint check-in verification loop.

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

SKILL.md is a well-organized overview that offloads the prompt bank to a single one-level-deep, clearly signaled reference (references/category-prompts.md, a real file), with sections arranged for easy navigation.

Description

100%

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

The description is concrete, trigger-rich, and complete with an explicit 'Use to...' clause, while clearly delineating its scope from three adjacent skills. It is concise yet comprehensive and uses third person throughout.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions: 'planning and facilitating a risk-storming session', 'participant roster, per-category brainstorm prompts', 'affinity grouping, impact by likelihood scoring, and mitigation assignment'.

3 / 3

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what (facilitation reference with structure, prompts, scoring, mitigation) and when ('Use to learn or teach the facilitation pattern, or to run a feature-kickoff session without agent assistance').

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Covers natural terms a user would say — 'risk-storming session', 'feature-kickoff session', 'brainstorm prompts', 'mitigation assignment' — with good variation.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Clear niche (facilitation pattern) and explicitly disambiguates from sibling skills — 'For the matrix artifact itself use risk-matrix, to calibrate... use risk-matrix-calibration, and to map... use risk-coverage-mapper'.
