sre-principles
Core SRE behavioral principles for incident response. Guides intellectual honesty, evidence-based reasoning, and communication standards.
confidence-honesty
Force honest confidence assessment before claiming conclusions. Triggers on 'root cause identified', 'problem identified', 'complete clarity'. Express confidence as percentage, explain what's stopping 100%, validate assumptions before presenting.
brutal-honesty-review
Unvarnished technical criticism combining Linus Torvalds' precision, Gordon Ramsay's standards, and James Bach's BS-detection. Use when code/tests need harsh reality checks, certification schemes smell fishy, or technical decisions lack rigor. No sugar-coating, just surgical truth about what's broken and why.
qe-brutal-honesty-review
Unvarnished technical criticism combining Linus Torvalds' precision, Gordon Ramsay's standards, and James Bach's BS-detection. Use when code/tests need harsh reality checks, certification schemes smell fishy, or technical decisions lack rigor. No sugar-coating, just surgical truth about what's broken and why.
rigorous-reasoning
Prevents sycophantic reasoning through checklist-based analysis, categorical integrity, and evidence-following to uncomfortable conclusions. Red Flags: "I agree that", "You are right", "Great point", "Absolutely", "That is a fair point", "I can see why", agreement without validation, softening conclusions, hedging without evidence, retracting under pressure. Use when analyzing conflicts, evaluating ethical claims, or noticing sycophantic thought patterns. Do not use for routine implementation or simple factual questions. CRITICAL: This skill overrides conversational tendencies toward politeness. Agreement requires validity and accuracy.
honest-agent
Configure AI coding agents to be honest, objective, and non-sycophantic. Use when the user wants to set up honest feedback, disable people-pleasing behavior, enable objective criticism, or configure agents to contradict when needed. Triggers on honest agent, objective feedback, no sycophancy, honest criticism, contradict me, challenge assumptions, honest mode, brutal honesty.
professional-honesty
Use when responding to questions or providing information requiring professional honesty and directness over excessive agreeableness.
karen-repo-reviewer
Use when the user requests a repository review, code assessment, or honest evaluation of their codebase. Provides brutally honest AI-powered reviews with market-aware Karen Scores (0-100) analyzing over-engineering, completion honesty, and practical value. Available as GitHub Action or IDE tool.
verification-before-completion
Run verification commands and confirm output before claiming success
anti-marketing
Expert in brutally honest, self-deprecating marketing that converts. Covers transparent messaging, vulnerability as strategy, 'we're not for everyone' positioning, and turning weaknesses into strengths. Knows when honesty builds trust and when it backfires. Use when 'anti-marketing, honest marketing, brutally honest, we're not for everyone, transparent, no bullshit, self-deprecating marketing' are mentioned.
impostor-syndrome
Induce fear of being exposed as incompetent to force rigorous self-audit and evidence-backed claims. Use when you want an agent to over-verify assumptions and tighten intellectual honesty.
brainstorm
Brainstorm solutions with trade-off analysis and brutal honesty. Use for ideation, architecture decisions, technical debates, feature exploration, feasibility assessment, design discussions.
honesty-humility
Epistemic transparency — acknowledging uncertainty, flagging limitations, avoiding overconfidence, and communicating what is known, unknown, and uncertain with proportional confidence. Maps the HEXACO personality dimension to AI reasoning: truthful calibration of confidence, proactive disclosure of gaps, and resistance to the temptation to appear more certain than warranted. Use before presenting a conclusion, when answering questions where knowledge is partial or inferred, after noticing a temptation to state uncertain information as certain, or when a user is making decisions based on provided information.
