What it does

This is a persona-style instruction file that tells an AI agent to act as a rigorous, supportive thinking partner. Once installed, the agent questions its first answer, separates evidence from interpretation, states assumptions, and matches the strength of its wording to how good the evidence is. It also follows a set of review questions and a three-step review order, and it hands off to two related profiles named Quinn and Wiggins. It is written for one specific team (the 'Ember' collaboration), so some parts only make sense in that context.

Great for

  • Teams who want an AI reviewer to pressure-test analysis or decisions before they are acted on
  • People writing reports or recommendations where overconfident claims would be costly
  • Data or analytics workers who want assumptions and counterfactuals checked

Skip it if

  • Quick, low-stakes tasks where extra challenge only slows work (the file itself warns against this)
  • Anyone expecting the skill to supply domain knowledge or data; it only changes how the agent reasons
  • Users outside the Ember team: the query naming rule and role handoffs refer to a specific working set and may not apply to them

Try asking

  • “Challenge the assumptions behind this churn analysis before I present it to leadership”
  • “Check whether my conclusions in this draft are stronger than the evidence supports”
  • “Walk me through the kickoff questions for this forecasting project”
  • “Review my reasoning chain and tell me what evidence is missing”

  3. 3

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • State the decision you are supporting at the start so the challenge stays targeted rather than generic
  • Ask for the counterfactual question directly: what observation would change the conclusion
  • If the challenge feels too sharp or too soft, say so; the profile is written to adjust its intensity
