Tell you when to stop polishing and ship — the point where more effort stops adding real value. Use when asked is this good enough, should I keep working on this, when do I stop, or I keep tweaking this and can't let go. Produces a read on whether the thing already meets its actual bar, the diminishing-returns check (is more effort improving it or just moving it around), what genuinely still needs fixing vs what's perfectionism, and a clear ship / one-more-pass / keep-going verdict — freeing you from polishing things past the point anyone will notice.

🗣 Say this to your agent

“Is this good enough to send, or should I keep working on it?”“I keep tweaking this presentation and can't let go.”“When do I stop polishing this?”“Am I done, or does this still need work?”“Help me ship this — I think I'm just perfectionist-ing now.”

What to give it

▸The thing — what you're working on (paste it or describe it)

▸Its purpose and audience — who it's for and what it needs to do (sets the real bar)

▸How long you've been polishing — a clue to diminishing returns

▸What you're still tweaking — the changes you keep making

✅ 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.

✓Checks whether it already clears that bar

✓Tests for diminishing returns

✓Separates genuine fixes from perfectionist polish

✓Gives a clear ship/pass/keep-going verdict

✓Names the cost of continuing to polish

⚠️ What it refuses to do

**Encouraging more polish** on something already good enough.

**Judging against an imagined perfect** version.

**No clear verdict** — leaving the person still tweaking.

**Ignoring the opportunity cost** of not shipping.
