premortem-facilitation

premortem-facilitation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from yogsoth-ai/stress-test. It costs 29 tokens per session (292 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A structured risk-review tool based on the pre-mortem method: assume a project has already failed, then imagine why. It ranks the possible failure scenarios by plausibility.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before starting a project, study, or other piece of work to list and rank plausible ways it could fail.
Why use it?
It helps teams identify risks early and counter the tendency to assume that plans will succeed.

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

premortem-facilitation 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 7d 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.

What it actually says

Pre-Mortem Facilitation

Executes the Klein (2007) pre-mortem protocol to generate failure scenarios.

Execution

Subagent — spawned via subagent-spawning/spawn-agent.

Why Subagent

Pre-mortem requires adopting a specific temporal frame (future failure as fact). Isolated context prevents contamination from optimistic bias.

Input

  • artifact: The artifact to analyze
  • artifact_type: Type classification for tailored prompting
  • budget: S/M/L controlling scenario count

Output

  • scenarios: List of plausible failure scenarios with narrative descriptions
  • plausibility_ranking: Ordered by perceived likelihood

Available SOPs

Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.

SOP When to use
spawn-agent Spawn a customized CC subagent with full MCP tool access. Used by SOPs that declare execution: subagent.
Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
