Skeptical Triage
Filter false positives from multi-angle review, security audit, QA regression flags, or any high-stakes judgment before it turns into a blocker.
Three rounds of skeptical self-review + an impartial arbiter, with a confidence score from the vote.
When to invoke
| Caller | Finding type | Apply triage? |
|---|---|---|
/review |
Angle 2/4/7/9 P0/P1 (security, SQL, privacy, concurrency) | Yes |
/review --deep |
Any angle P0/P1 | Yes |
security-officer |
CSO audit P0/P1 | Yes |
security-officer |
Secret in source/git, confirmed CVE | No — hard finding |
qa-engineer |
Flaky-test verdict (is this a regression or flake?) | Yes |
architect |
ADR trade-off dispute (option A vs. B when both look reasonable) | Yes |
| Any | P2/advisory | No |
The 4-step pattern
More from avelikiy/great_cto
great_cto
Use when the CTO describes a feature, task, or project goal. Orchestrates the full SDLC pipeline automatically based on project type.
14done-blocked
Reusable reporting contract for any agent that hands work back to the pipeline. Forces ONE of two terminal statuses (DONE or BLOCKED) with a specific evidence shape. Stops vague "probably finished" and "kind of stuck" verdicts.
13well-architected
6-pillar architecture review framework. Adapted from AWS Well-Architected for use by great_cto's architect agent on every non-nano ARCH document. Forces explicit answers across operational excellence, security, reliability, performance, cost, and sustainability — not just feature design.
1prose-style
Reusable writing-style contract for agent outputs (reports, ARCH docs, verdicts, threat models). Forces direct prose with concrete evidence, no marketing voice, no hedge words. The single most-referenced skill across the pipeline — used by 28 agents.
1discovery
Structured pre-design questioning to surface hidden constraints before any architecture decision is locked in. Forces the architect/auditor/reviewer to enumerate what they DON'T know before proposing.
1cost-model
Standardized cost-estimation framework for great_cto plans. Forces explicit LLM cost, infra cost, human-supervision time, and the (defensible) human-equivalent comparison. Output format is parsable by the board's /api/cost path — must follow exactly.
