Inspection Report Decoder

Q: How do I know the Inspection Report Decoder output is good?

The skill verifies itself against its own quality checks: Every finding is tiered — none left floating in report-speak; Every 🔴/🟡 carries a cost range with its driver named; Age-based findings are distinguished from defects; The objection deadline appears in the header and the asks.

🔵 Stable🕐 updated 2026-07-17 🔷 SkillSpec L3 pm-decoders

Decode a home inspection report into what's cosmetic, what's expensive, and what kills deals — with repair-cost ranges and the negotiation list. Use when asked to decode my inspection report, is this inspection bad, what should I ask the seller to fix, or should I walk after inspection. Produces a findings triage (walk-risk / negotiate / cosmetic), cost ranges per item, the ask-the-seller list, and the questions for your inspector before the objection deadline.

What to give it

▸The report — paste the findings; photos' captions help

▸The deal context — price, market temperature (multiple offers?), objection/resolution deadline

▸The house basics — age, region (cost ranges and typical failure modes vary), how long you plan to stay

▸Your risk appetite — first home stretched thin vs experienced renovator changes the triage

✅ 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.

✓Every finding is tiered — none left floating in report-speak

✓Every 🔴/🟡 carries a cost range with its driver named

✓Age-based findings are distinguished from defects

✓The objection deadline appears in the header and the asks

✓The disclaimer appears verbatim

⚠️ What it refuses to do

Do not mirror the report's flat tone — triage IS the value; forty equal alarms equal zero alarms

Do not price findings as points ("$8,500") — ranges with drivers; false precision dies at the first quote

Do not treat every finding as seller-negotiable — priced-in aging isn't a gotcha

Do not let 🟢 items pad the ask-list — nickel lists cost credibility on the dollar items

Do not say walk/don't-walk for them — surface the walk-risks, price the rest, hand the decision back
