Developer uses AI for project premortems to uncover hidden risks

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

A developer has created a custom skill for AI coding assistants like Claude and Codex to perform 'premortems' on project plans. This technique, adapted from Gary Klein and Daniel Kahneman, involves instructing the AI to assume a plan has already failed and then explain why. The developer uses this to identify potential risks and hidden assumptions in coding decisions and project ideas, aiming for more specific and actionable insights than standard reviews. AI

IMPACT Enhances AI's utility in critical decision-making by surfacing potential failure points before implementation.

RANK_REASON Developer created a custom tool/skill for existing AI models.

    <p>I started using premortems for a boring reason: I did not trust the default review question.</p> <p>When I ask a coding agent "does this plan look good?", the answer is usually useful but too polite. It finds reasons the plan can work. It notices a few edge cases. It gives me …
