decision-auditor

decision-auditor is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from huntsyea/thinking-skills. It costs 67 tokens per session (649 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A decision-review guide that checks plans and judgments for common thinking errors, such as relying too heavily on the first idea or an easily remembered example. It also uses premortems, which imagine that a plan has failed to uncover risks in advance.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review choices, assess risk and probability, challenge a plan before starting it, and reframe a problem from a different angle.
Why use it?
It helps expose hidden assumptions and reduce mistakes when the facts are uncertain or the stakes are high.

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-auditor 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 10d 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.

Decision Auditor

Based on Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman.

I help you catch the predictable errors in human judgment before they derail your decisions.

What I Do

Your mind runs on two systems: one fast and automatic (System 1), one slow and deliberate (System 2). Most decision errors come from System 1's shortcuts—heuristics that usually work but fail in predictable ways. I help you spot these failures and correct for them.

When to Use Me

  • Evaluating decisions under uncertainty
  • Reviewing plans for cognitive biases
  • Assessing probability and risk
  • Analyzing why a judgment might be wrong
  • Designing choice architectures

Workflows

Bias Check

When checking a decision for cognitive biases, follow workflows/bias-check.md

Premortem

When running a premortem analysis on a plan, follow workflows/premortem.md

Reframe

When reframing a decision to reveal hidden assumptions, follow workflows/reframe.md

Quick Bias Checklist

Use this when you need a fast scan without the full workflow:

  • Substitution: Did we answer the actual question, or an easier one?
  • WYSIATI: What information is missing that would be relevant?
  • Base rates: What happens to similar cases? Are we treating ours as special?
  • Anchoring: Where did our initial estimate come from? Would a different starting point change it?
  • Availability: Are we overweighting vivid, recent, or personal examples?
  • Affect: Are we conflating "I like this" with "this will succeed"?
  • Overconfidence: Is our confidence level justified by the evidence?
  • Planning fallacy: Are our estimates based on best-case scenarios?

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.
