Loss weighted unknowns
Rank delivery unknowns by potential loss. Use when someone asks “what are we missing,” requests a pre-merge unknowns pass, says “rank the unknowns,” or when an agent has finished building and needs to expose consequential assumptions before merge.From its SKILL.md

Loss-weighted unknowns
After building and before merging, make the consequential unknowns visible to the human.
- Inspect the finished change, its boundaries, and the evidence produced while building it.
- List what remains unknown as separate Markdown files using
templates/unknown.md. State a concrete harmful outcome, not a generic feeling of uncertainty. - Score each unknown from 1 to 5 on severity, likelihood, irreversibility, blast radius, and compliance exposure. Use one shared calibration for the set.
- Run
node scripts/rank-unknowns.mjs <path-to-unknowns>. - Present the highest-ranked items to the human first, with their score, rationale, owner, and next action. Do not lead with a chronological inventory.
- Put generic uncertainty and cheap, reversible questions at the bottom. High uncertainty alone is not high priority.
The ranker multiplies the five scores. Treat the result as a decision aid: challenge the judgments when they look wrong, keep tied scores visible, and never imply that arithmetic removes the need for human review.
