decision-questionnaire

decision-questionnaire is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from cyborg-garden/hermes-agent-mt. It costs 15 tokens per session (966 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of decision-questionnaire, MIT.

A questionnaire document for collecting an answer from someone who has missing expertise or authority. It is written in Markdown so it can be sent to a stakeholder, domain expert, vendor, or operations contact.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when a project is blocked on another person's knowledge or judgment, or when preparing a meeting that must produce concrete answers.
Why use it?
It turns an unclear decision into specific questions another person can answer asynchronously or in a meeting. It avoids asking the user to guess facts they do not have.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

decision-questionnaire scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Decision Questionnaire

Turns something the user can't answer alone into a questionnaire: a Markdown document they hand to one person to fill in async, or fill out together in a meeting. The recipient holds knowledge the user lacks; the questionnaire pulls it out of them.

Ported from mattpocock/skills' MIT-licensed to-questionnaire skill.

When to Use

  • A decision blocks on facts or judgment held by someone else (a domain expert, a stakeholder, a vendor contact, ops)
  • The user says "I need to ask X about this" or keeps deferring a decision pending someone else's input
  • Preparing for a meeting where specific answers must come back

Do NOT use when the answer is discoverable from the environment (codebase, docs, web) — find it yourself first.

Core Principle: Interview the Send, Not the Subject

The user cannot answer the subject-matter questions (that's the point), but they can ALWAYS answer questions about the send. Interview them only about that, in two short exchanges:

  1. Who is it going to? Role, expertise, relationship to the user. This fixes the questionnaire's tone and how much context it must carry. Done when you know who the recipient is and what they know that the user doesn't.
  2. What do you need back? The specific decisions or facts the user can't resolve alone. Done when you have a concrete list of what the user must walk away able to do or decide.

Then write the questionnaire: draft questions aimed at the gap between what the recipient knows and what the user needs, following the structure below. Write it to decision-questionnaire-<slug>.md in the current directory (slug from the topic) and report the absolute path. Done when the file exists and every item from step 2 is covered by a question.

Document Structure

Frame it as a discovery questionnaire: the user lacks context, the recipient holds it. Order questions most-important-first (async means you may only get one pass). Group under ## headings by theme once there are more than a handful.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
