key-assumptions-check

key-assumptions-check is a skill for Claude Code from Liberty91LTD/cti-skills. It costs 49 tokens per session (1,155 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A method for listing and evaluating the assumptions behind an important analysis or judgment. It checks how much each assumption matters and how confident you are that it is valid.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before publishing a high-impact assessment or whenever you need to ask what an analysis is assuming and whether those assumptions still hold.
Why use it?
It makes hidden assumptions visible so you can see whether missing or incorrect information could change the conclusion.

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

key-assumptions-check 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 1mo 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.

Key Assumptions Check

Every analytical judgment rests on assumptions — often unstated. This technique surfaces them and evaluates whether the analysis holds if assumptions are wrong.

Procedure

Step 1: State the Analytical Line

Write the current assessment or conclusion in one clear sentence.

Step 2: List All Assumptions

Brainstorm every assumption underlying the assessment. Include:

  • Assumptions about threat actor intent or capability
  • Assumptions about data completeness or accuracy
  • Assumptions about the relevance of historical patterns
  • Assumptions about the target environment
  • Assumptions about timing or sequencing

Step 3: Walk the Claim Table (when one exists)

If the assessment was built on graded evidence items from /quality-of-information-check, go through the claim table row by row. Assumptions are usually hiding in judgements that the analysis treats as observations. If there is no claim table, skip this step and leave the Claim column as "n/a".

For each claim, compare its claim_type with how the analytical line uses it:

In the claim table How the analysis uses it Assumption to record
assessment Stated as fact, or as a premise for a further judgement That the source's judgement about intent, capability or future behaviour is correct
attribution Actor named without the source's hedge That the attribution holds. Quote stated_confidence verbatim
actor_claim Scale, victim or data figures repeated as fact That the actor is telling the truth
Any type, flagged caveats_dropped_in_chain Outlet's stronger wording used That the claim is as strong as the outlet made it, not as the primary wrote it
Any type, flagged single_source or with corroboration unchecked Relied on without qualification That the one primary is right
Any type, flagged stale or superseded Used as current That nothing has changed since publication

Rules:

  • Every assessment and attribution claim with load_bearing: true gets a row in the matrix, even when the assumption looks safe.
  • Carry the claim_id into the matrix. One claim can produce more than one assumption, and an assumption can rest on several claims.
  • Do not regrade claims here. The grade informs the Confidence column: claim support tentative or worse on a claim used as fact is Low or Medium confidence, never High.
  • Assumptions from Step 2 that trace to no claim are kept, with "none" in the Claim column. These have no evidence behind them at all, which is worth stating.

key-assumptions-check is a skill published in the GitHub repository Liberty91LTD/cti-skills (36 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 49 tokens to every session and 1,155 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
