Inline reversibility assessment for embedded War Room escalation from commands. Use at decision points to determine escalation need. Skip for standalone strategic decisions.
Assesses decision reversibility to determine if escalation to full War Room deliberation is required.
/plugin marketplace add athola/claude-night-market/plugin install attune@claude-night-marketThis skill inherits all available tools. When active, it can use any tool Claude has access to.
Lightweight inline assessment for determining whether a decision point within a command warrants War Room escalation.
Run make test-checkpoint to verify checkpoint logic works correctly after changes.
This skill is not invoked directly by users. It is called by other commands (e.g., /do-issue, /pr-review) at critical decision points to:
| Command | Trigger Conditions |
|---|---|
/do-issue | 3+ issues, dependency conflicts, overlapping files |
/pr-review | >3 blocking issues, architecture changes, ADR violations |
/architecture-review | ADR violations, high coupling, boundary violations |
/fix-pr | Major scope, conflicting reviewer feedback |
Skill(attune:war-room-checkpoint) with context:
- source_command: "{calling_command}"
- decision_needed: "{human_readable_question}"
- files_affected: [{list_of_files}]
- issues_involved: [{issue_numbers}] (if applicable)
- blocking_items: [{type, description}] (if applicable)
- conflict_description: "{summary}" (if applicable)
- profile: "default" | "startup" | "regulated" | "fast" | "cautious"
Analyze the provided context to extract:
Calculate RS using the 5-dimension framework:
| Dimension | Assessment Question |
|---|---|
| Reversal Cost | How hard to undo this decision? |
| Time Lock-In | Does this crystallize immediately? |
| Blast Radius | How many components/people affected? |
| Information Loss | Does this close off future options? |
| Reputation Impact | Is this visible externally? |
Score each 1-5, calculate RS = Sum / 25.
Apply profile thresholds to determine mode:
if RS <= profile.express_ceiling:
mode = "express"
elif RS <= profile.lightweight_ceiling:
mode = "lightweight"
elif RS <= profile.full_council_ceiling:
mode = "full_council"
else:
mode = "delphi"
Return immediately with recommendation:
response:
should_escalate: false
selected_mode: "express"
reversibility_score: {rs}
decision_type: "Type 2"
recommendation: "{quick_recommendation}"
rationale: "{brief_explanation}"

For escalated decisions, calculate confidence for auto-continue:
confidence = 1.0
- 0.10 * dissenting_view_count
- 0.20 if voting_margin < 0.3
- 0.15 if RS > 0.80
- 0.10 if novel_domain
- 0.10 if compound_decision
+ 0.20 if unanimous (cap at 1.0)
requires_user_confirmation = (confidence <= 0.8)
| Profile | Express | Lightweight | Full Council | Use Case |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| default | 0.40 | 0.60 | 0.80 | Balanced |
| startup | 0.55 | 0.75 | 0.90 | Move fast |
| regulated | 0.25 | 0.45 | 0.65 | Compliance |
| fast | 0.50 | 0.70 | 0.90 | Speed priority |
| cautious | 0.30 | 0.50 | 0.70 | Higher stakes |
| Command | Adjustment | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| do-issue (3+ issues) | -0.10 | Higher risk with multiple issues |
| pr-review (strict mode) | -0.15 | Strict mode = higher scrutiny |
| architecture-review | -0.05 | Architecture inherently consequential |
