rapid-decision

rapid-decision is a skill for Claude Code from tupe12334/instinct. It costs 22 tokens per session (2,165 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A decision-making framework that assigns five roles: who recommends an option, who must agree, who carries it out, who gives input, and who makes the final decision.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assign responsibilities for important product, engineering, or organisational decisions.
Why use it?
It prevents unclear ownership, committee deadlock, and decisions made without the people affected by them.

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

rapid-decision 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 5d 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.

RAPID Decision Framework

Overview

RAPID is a Bain & Company framework that assigns five distinct roles to every significant decision, making explicit who has a voice, who has a veto, and who pulls the trigger. It prevents the two most common failure modes: decisions made by committee with no clear owner, and decisions made unilaterally that generate downstream resistance.

Role Definitions

R — Recommend

Proposes a course of action with supporting analysis. This is not a ceremonial role: Recommend gathers Input, synthesizes it, and presents a concrete proposal — not options for others to choose from. If Recommend presents three options without a recommendation, they have not done the job.

A — Agree

Holds formal veto power. A decision cannot proceed if Agree withholds sign-off. Use this role sparingly — typically for legal, finance, or compliance stakeholders whose domain creates binding constraints. If Agree is overused, it becomes a bottleneck disguised as governance.

P — Perform

Executes the decision once it is made. Perform must be consulted during the Recommend phase — if the people doing the work consider the plan unworkable, that signal belongs in the recommendation, not surfaced after the decision is final.

I — Input

Consulted for expertise or perspective before the recommendation is finalized. Input has no veto and does not vote; they inform. The key discipline: Input must be asked, not just offered the chance to speak. Recommend is responsible for actively pulling Input from the right people.

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.

rapid-decision is a skill published in the GitHub repository tupe12334/instinct (1 stars, last pushed 19d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 22 tokens to every session and 2,165 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-31.
