Decision Helper

🔵 Stable🕐 updated 2026-08-04 🔷 SkillSpec L3 pm-personal

Help me decide between options with a weighted pros/cons that actually reaches a recommendation — not just two lists. Use when asked should I take job A or B, which one should I buy, help me decide, or make a pro/con list. Produces the criteria that matter (weighted by what you care about), the options scored against them, a clear recommendation with its confidence, and the single question that would flip the decision if you're still torn.

🗣 Say this to your agent

“Help me decide between two job offers.”“Which laptop should I buy — here are three?”“Should I move cities for this role? Make it a weighted decision.”“I'm torn between two apartments — help me choose.”“Make a real pro/con list and actually tell me what to pick.”

What to give it

The options — what you're choosing between (2+ concrete choices)
What matters to you — money, growth, stress, location, values… (or the skill will propose criteria and ask you to weight them)
The stakes & reversibility — one-way door or easily undone? (changes how much rigor is worth)
Any hard constraints — deal-breakers that filter options before scoring

✅ The bar it holds itself to

Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.

Criteria were drawn from what the user cares about, then weighted (not equal by default)
Each option is scored against each criterion
A clear recommendation is given, with confidence — not "it depends"
The single decision-flipping unknown is named
Reversibility is factored into how much certainty is worth chasing
The gut-check prompt is included

⚠️ What it refuses to do

**A flat pro/con list** with no weights and no decision.
**False precision** — inventing exact scores for things you can't know; use ranges and label assumptions.
**Refusing to recommend** — "both have merits" is the one thing the user came to avoid.
**Ignoring reversibility** — agonising over an easily-undone choice, or rushing a one-way door.
