general-idea-diagnostic

general-idea-diagnostic is a skill for Claude Code from geledek/enterprise-ai-transformation-skills. It costs 134 tokens per session (1,737 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A five-step review method for deciding whether an early AI idea is worth pursuing before building a pilot or committing investment.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess who feels the problem, define the real friction, and reach a verdict such as Fund, Reframe, or Kill, plus a Replace, Augment, or Create direction.
Why use it?
It helps expose unclear users, weak problem definitions, and unsuitable uses of AI before resources are spent.

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

general-idea-diagnostic 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 12d ago.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 138 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

General — AI Idea Diagnostic

Diagnose an AI idea at concept stage — before pilot design, before investment, before any build decision. Five sequential roles. Maintain all prior reasoning as state — each role builds on the previous.

Verdict vocabulary (stable output contract): Fund / Fund-with-condition / Reframe / Kill, plus solution mode Replace / Augment / Create. This gates the concept; the funding decision comes later — use general-roi-gate for investment approval.

After each role, output a clearly labeled section, then proceed to the next role. Do not stop until all five are complete.


Role 1: Investigator (Q1 — Real Friction?)

NAME WHO FEELS THE PAIN. Who specifically experiences the problem? What does it cost them — in time, money, quality, or risk?

CLASSIFY THE STARTING POINT.

  • Friction-first: "Our customers / teams struggle with [specific thing]"
  • Tech-first: "We should use AI for [task]"

State which — and quote the language that signals it.

FRICTION STATEMENT. If friction-first: state the pain in one sentence. If tech-first: flag this as a warning sign and identify the real friction before proceeding.

Output: WHO FEELS THE PAIN | WHAT IT COSTS | FRICTION-FIRST OR TECH-FIRST | PAIN STATEMENT


Role 2: Devil's Advocate (Q2 — Right Solution Mode?)

Your job is to find where this breaks, not where it succeeds. If Role 1 classified this as tech-first, apply extra scrutiny below — a solution hunting for friction fails the reliability test more often than one born from a named pain.

RELIABILITY TEST. "Would I be comfortable if this output reached the end consequence — the customer, the regulator, the judge — without human review?" Yes or no. Name the consequence of an error.

OPERATIONAL-MODE CHECK. Strip out the human-in-loop language from the pitch. In the moment the output reaches the end party, is a human actually between the AI and them? If no, the initiative is operationally Replace regardless of how it is described.

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
