4 source-grounded skills. Load one workflow at a time.

Audit Intelligence Harness

Use this workflow when an AI workflow or agent must be replayed and audited for ownership, verified inputs, state, permissions, model routing, human review, exceptions, fallbacks, logging, learning, and cost per accepted outcome before scaling.

Output specification

Return an intelligence harness audit with replay_sample, execution_trace, ownership_and_state, permissions_and_review, rule_vs_run_findings, accepted_output_economics, learning_loop, risk_priorities, and scale_decision.

Engineer Intelligence Routing

Use this workflow when an operator must tier AI tasks by value and risk and define default models, prompts, context, tools, quality bars, latency budgets, review, escalation, fallback, logging, and learning rules.

Output specification

Return an intelligence routing specification with task_tiers, quality_and_latency_bars, default_routes, prompt_context_and_tools, permissions_and_review, fallback_and_stop_rules, logging_schema, and learning_cadence.

Intelligence Allocation Plan

Use this workflow when leaders must allocate premium models, commodity models, deterministic systems, human expertise, review capacity, and infrastructure across an AI workflow portfolio to improve economics and strategic learning.

Output specification

Return an intelligence allocation plan with portfolio_inventory, premium_and_commodity_routes, human_expertise_allocation, binding_constraints, scenarios, capacity_moves, strategic_learning, decision_rights, and review_thresholds.

Intelligence Cost Curve Map

Use this workflow when an AI workflow needs task-level economics across model quality, latency, accepted outputs, human review, retries, downstream correction, scale effects, and physical capacity constraints rather than blended token or vendor cost.

Output specification

Return an intelligence cost curve with economic_unit, task_segments, route_costs, quality_latency_tradeoffs, cost_per_accepted_outcome, volume_sensitivity, review_and_correction_cost, physical_constraints, and decision_thresholds.

Keep consequential decisions explicit.

These workflows structure analysis and artifacts; they do not authorize autonomous external, personnel, financial, legal, security, or other high-impact action.

Choose your reading rhythm.

Start with a weekly briefing, add daily notes, or hear only when a durable essay or research update is ready.
